Woman praised for 'perfect' royal fancy dress costume after ditching fancy frock

A woman has been branded a genius after attending a royalty-themed party - as a relaxed Princess Diana.

The five friends decided to have a royal picnic and documented the whole thing on TikTok, and the video shows them in very formal attire sipping on tea, as the Daily Star reports.

But one friend didn't want to invest the time and money it would take to pull off the style, so she decided to model herself on an iconic picture of the people's princess.

With a short blond wig, round sunglasses, cycling shorts and a baggy grey jumper, the woman looks the spit of Princess Diana as she was snapped by paparazzi leaving the Chelsea Harbour Club.

TikTok users seemed to find it hilarious that she 'misunderstood the assignment' but believe she nailed it anyway.

One user said: "Leanne didn’t understand the assignment but she still got an A+."
