Princess Diana’s casual outfits: We all know Princess Diana was the queen of dressing up but what we know better is that her true style always shone through even the most casual looks. Whether it be wearing a sweatshirt with shorts, a blazer with jeans, or a power suit. Diana always looked the best when stepping outside and luckily, her outfits were heavily photographed so we have tons of photos of all the best outfits even today.
It has become easier for us to copy Diana’s style since we have all the pictures. Diana knew how to dress, could pull off a black dress, a power suit, sweatshirt and pants, and even a skirt. The princess knew how to make casual outfits look so chic.
There is nothing the Princess did not know how to style. Diana was known as a style icon back in the day and still is! This article includes 20 of the best casual outfits Diana wore during her time so you can choose whichever ones you like and recreate them according to your own style.
How To Dress Like Princess Diana?
Lady Di loved to dress the way she liked and not according to what the society or monarchy expected of her. Her style was a mix of sporty, androgynous, and girly. On some days she wore dresses, on some sweatshirts and on others she wore jeans. However, what made her style stand out was the fact that she always stayed true to her style.
To pull off outfits the way this Princess did you need to make sure you stay true to yourself and dress the way you like. If you like hoodies and sweats, create an outfit from those. Have confidence that whatever you come up with, will look good. Whatever comes from a place of love never fails. Have faith that you will look great and you will always pull off an outfit!
DOS AND DONTS
• DO go through all of Diana’s outfits, maybe you’ll find one you like.
• DO wear what you like.
• DO choose the outfit you like best.
• DON’T worry about what others think, wear what you like.
• DON’T set unrealistic standards for yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How to dress like Princess Diana?
A. There is no way to dress like Diana. However, Diana had a specific style that she incorporated into all of her outfits. We all know Diana liked to dress up however she liked and sometimes it was androgynous too. Di had a sporty style and she used that to style most of her outfits. A sporty twist here and there, she would throw on a baseball cap with a sweatshirt or wear a blazer with jeans but when wearing a dress, Diana carried it perfectly. So you should dress how you want and only use Diana’s outfits for some style inspiration.
You have some really nice commentary to these well-loved photos, but why are you so focused on excluding her very feminine persona by refusing to use her feminine pronouns? At first reading, I was confused. But, then I put on my woke glasses and saw what you did there. Diana was a woman. She was a she. Her being, body and soul, was feminine. Give her the dignity of using her appropriate (and linguistically correct) pronouns.
I look forward to reading your future writings on Diana.
Hi Victoria,
I understand your point, writing the article this way was the writer’s personal choice… I will see if we can have this updated as per your comments. Thank you for visiting and sharing your feedback 🙂

This article was horribly written. Princess Diana was a person. She wasn’t binary or non binary or transgender. She was a She and very feminine. Please do not expose her to all this wokeism. Instead refer to her as she has been her whole life: as a proud beautiful but flawed feminine. Gawd yall ruin everything.
Thank you for your feedback Veronica,
The article was written in this way by the writer and I apologize on their behalf.
You are absolutely right, Diana was very feminine and deserved to be addressed that way too. I have updated and fixed the article myself. Hope you won’t be disappointed and will keep visiting us in future 🙂
Thanks once again and best regards,
Team OutfitTrends.
The article was fine. They didn’t have pronoun wars back when she was alive. In that Era we just got on with our lives and expressed personal style without shoving it in everyone’s faces and didn’t toss little fits if someone do what we wanted.
