A trio of designer dresses worn by Princess Diana have sold for more than ?L200,000 GBP at auction. London-based auctioneer Kerry Taylor Auctions featured several royal lots in their latest 'Passion for Fashion' sale held on June 17. Among the highlights were three outfits belonging to Princess Di from the 1980s. A Jasper Conran brushed red wool suit from 1984 sold for ?L62,500 GBP. And an Elizabeth Emanuel navy and white damask silk ensemble from 1986, went for ?L106,250 GBP. Meanwhile a Catherine Walker printed peach silk polka dot coat-dress from 1988, was snapped up for ?L93,750 GBP. Other items included keepsakes of Royal nanny Clara Knight. Nanny 'Allah' - as the infant Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret called her - a derivation of her true name, which they initially found difficult to say, worked in the Royal Household from the birth of Princess Elizabeth in 1926. A pair of Smith & Co Liberty printed silk dresses worn by Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret from 1935 sold for ?L32,500 GBP. And two medieval-inspired outfits worn by Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York for TV show The Grand Knockout Tournament - also known as It's a Royal Knockout - in 1987 sold for ?L1,750 GBP. They had only been expected to sell for between ?L200 and ?L300 GBP, the auction house said. A spokesperson for Kerry Taylor Auctions said: "Princess Diana?s garments will always be desirable and increasingly so with the passage of years since her untimely death."
