Princess Diana Refused to Wear Chanel Because It Was Charles & Camilla’s Initials
Princes Diana was a true Queen of our Hearts, but she was also beautifully shady too.
According to Australian designer Jayson Brundson, the Princess refused to wear ensembles from Chanel because of the label’s iconic “C” logo.
“She said, ‘No, I can’t wear linked C’s, the double C,’” he said to Harper’s Bazaar. “I asked why, and she said, ‘It’s Camilla and Charles.’”
“It was definitely the timing, it being post-divorce. She would have seen linked C’s and they would have just reminded her of Charles and Camilla,” Jayson said. “The shoes were quite boldly Chanel, I think they had gold linked C’s on them. And I think for photo optics, people would have honed in on that considering it was so fresh after the divorce as well.”
