Princess Diana's Life To Be Celebrated With Scheduled Events Including An Exhibit Of Her Iconic Dresses

A couple of big events are lined up in the next few weeks to celebrate the life of Princess Diana of Wales on her 20th death anniversary. On top of her most iconic dresses going on display, a charity in her name is also planning a day specifically to commemorate the legacy that she left in the world.

Fabulous wardrobe ensembles automatically come with being a member of the royal family. Princess Diana herself was known to sport a collection of beautiful dresses since she first came into the scene after getting engaged to Prince Charles.

But in a new exhibit dubbed as "Diana: Her Fashion Story," the curator of the display, Eleri Lynn, wants to tell the Princess's life journey via the clothes that she wore throughout the years. The collection, which will display 25 memorable ensembles worn by the Princess of Wales, will be exhibited in her former official Royal Home, Kensington Palace, starting Feb. 24.

The Princess first opted with romantic and more feminine pieces. Later in her life, following her rocky marriage and subsequent divorce to the Prince of Wales, she became bolder and yet less glamorous in her sartorial choices. "What you see in the exhibition is a real evolution of the princess's style," Lynn told People Magazine. "You see that New Romanticism of the early '80s and all the frills and ruffles that were fashionable at the time, but you see through the course of the display the princess really getting a sense of her own style . . . to this fantastically glamorous, self-confident stylish woman."

Meanwhile, the commemoration of Lady Diana continues up until next month with charity "The Diana Award's National Kindness Day" in U.K. on March 31. The event is geared towards "encouraging people from across the U.K. to do something kind for someone else in remembrance of Princess Diana to celebrate her values of compassion, kindness and service to others, irrespective of their culture, race or background."

Prior to these scheduled activities, Prince William and Prince Harry have also commissioned a statue for their late mother in Kensington Palace. London's Evening Standard tipped last month that the two Princes have quietly organized a committee to take care of the project and raise money for it.
