Princess Diana’s outfits up for rare auction — including dress she wore during John Travolta dance

Diana, the Princess of Wales, has long been lauded as a fashion icon.

And now, in the biggest auction of her dresses since 1997, some of her iconic outfits are up for purchase. Following the sale of one of Diana’s evening dress for more than $1.1 million in December, co-founder of Julien’s Auctions Martin Nolan said on the 'TODAY' show Monday that interest in selling more of her garments has skyrocketed.

” Some of the items available were in the 'TODAY' show’s Studio 1A for co-anchor Savannah Guthrie to see, such as Diana’s blue ball gown with silver stars, which she wore to the “Phantom of the Opera” in 1986, a luncheon in 1987 and a ballet performance of “Cinderella.” “She was in touch with fashion economics, Diana, but also she loves to shine a spotlight on designers that were not very well-known,” Nolan said.
