Princess Diana at the Serpentine Gallery, 1994

Diana wore the dress to a 29 June 1994 fundraising dinner hosted by Vanity Fair magazine for the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens.[2] Diana had declined the dinner invitation; however, two days prior to the dinner, following several days’ publicity of Charles’ infidelity revelations, she accepted the invitation. Diana found out about Charles’ infidelity in different ways prior to the dinner. An example is in some newspaper headlines they reported “Charles: I Cheated on Diana” and “Di told you so”.
