People choose to forget that Diana held her "pity me" interview without protecting her children. She "shyly" confessed her multiple affairs (omit the marriage she broke up) BUT blamed others for her behaviour. William was at boarding school and became aware of it only when his fellow students did. Imagine their gossiping and side glances. Imagine his pain and discomfort. Then she flounced off in her FU dress and the press and other women/mums! praised her for it. It's nasty stuff. I see that Diana in H's manoeuvers.

No, it wasn’t. Charles entered the marriage honestly (we barely know each other but from what I’ve seen, we have enough to build on), Diana did not. Diana misrepresented who she was to Charles (I love all the stuff you love! and though we barely know each other I feel only the very deepest love for you!), and her family hid their knowledge of her instability. Charles’ romantic relationship with Camilla was over and he was ready to build a relationship with Diana, only to marry her and find out on the honeymoon that she was not the person he thought she was. Mountbatten’s “play the field advice” was not helpful to Charles. By the time he was 30, he was getting pressure from all quarters to marry and did not take the time to really get to know Diana; they only met about 15 times before the engagement. Charles didn’t get the opportunity to see that Diana actually hated all his interests and had some significant mental health issues. Diana would have had a more difficult time keeping up the facade over 2-3 years. Maybe a few of her bunny-boiling tendencies would have made their way to the media given more time.

Great selection. Have to say the worst 1,2,3 looks are incomprehensible. Lady Di's revenge dress is still a knockout today. What I remember from that period is that she finally dropped the 80s looks & however styled her new sophisticated (almost french) look was a genius. It screams confidence.

I used to work for a jewelry designer and for the most part he had a great sense of style. From time to time he would get all excited and come out to the floor to show us something new and exciting. He'd say "You have to see this, it's great, no one has ever done this before" and he'd show us some really weird combo that made no sense. We'd all look at each other as if to say "there's a reason no one has done that before". We never told him. He was so excited, we didn't want to burst his bubble. I feel like that's what happened with the "avant garde" dress. Someone should have told him. Or at least told her. What a travesty.

Angelina Jolie, totally agree Beebs, she IS stunning. The Princess of Wales gown was spectacular, again fitted impeccably. She just can't do any wrong in my books.

The look on your face after “butt cheeks” made me laugh so hard my kids had to check on me!!! I’m so glad I found your channel you are just lovely.

Diana's was stunning in that dress. I think it was a statement of freedom. Angelina, Catherine and Zendaya are on par with Diana ❤

Sorry Beebs, but I have to disagree with you on Zendaya's mermaid dress. The neckline is too low. It looks like it's about to fall off and tan lines are visible. Her eye makeup is too harsh. She usually looks absolutely amazing, for me this was not one of her best looks. On the other hand, the strapless ball gown is gorgeous! I do agree that the look is a little "old" for her, but I think that's due to the bouffant hair, and not the dress itself which is giving me Audrey Hepburn vibes.

She was letting the world know she was not going away! She is strong, she is still her!

I looked at the "revenge dress" as a declaration of independence. Diana could never wear a dress like that as a Royal. Too revealing on the leg as well as shoulders (though obviously not tasteless). It looked mature (versus early royal fashion choices especially). I don't doubt it was appropriate for the occasion but had just enough edge or non-royalness to be a statement that she's her own woman and looks good as it.

"I don't care what anyone says".. Diana Rocked that dress & did it in an AMAZING way ❤

She looked like Ursula from The Little Mermaid.

Charles’ interview was a mistake, but after reading The Real Diana, I can see how he got there-Diana just played the game better. Diana was sure that she would marry Prince Andrew when she grew up. Her family took to calling her Dutch because they were also sure she would marry Andrew and become a Duchess. Once Diana realized that she could actually catch Charles, the chase was on and facilitated by her family. Diana feigned interest in Charles’ interests and hobbies (Balmoral, fishing hunting, etc.)-basically, she pretended to be who Camilla is, a hunting, shooting, fishing, reading country girl. Then as soon as they were on their honeymoon (most of which was at Balmoral), Diana declared each of his interests as borrrring. When the honeymoon moved on to Balmoral she would have have fits of screaming and crying when he wouldn’t do what she wanted when she wanted him to do it (the court was at Balmoral for the summer so there was official business going on and many witnesses). After the honeymoon she proceeded to, one by one, separate him from his friends (he would give in to avoid conflict with her), then his staff (who would quit because she would not look at or speak to those she wanted to leave. In her mind, she loved him, but then attempted to change everything about him, and if he wanted any kind of peace, he would comply. Diana and her family, particularly the Spencers, were very ambitious and misrepresented who she was to the RF, particularly regarding her emotional health & stability. The Spencer’s actually had a bit of a reputation for unstable men (Diana’s mom cited abuse in the divorce), but the RF didn’t think the mental issues affect the Spencer women. Diana actually refused to cooperate with mental health professionals provided by the RF when they realized how unstable she was, and wouldn’t accept mental health help for years (yes, the RF tried to get her professional help) until a friend threatened to out her bulimia to the press because she was afraid it would kill her. And that is just how she treated Charles. As a grown woman she held hostility towards her mother for leaving her abusive father (she took Diana & her brother with her but lost custody), pushed her stepmother down the stairs (long after Diana married btw), threw her stepmother’s things out the window in trash bags after her father died, fired one staff for claiming expenses with the palace for some trips with Diana (completely legitimate expenses), and the staff who was the currier who delivered tapes to Andrew Morten for her for accepting reimbursement from the publishing company. The virginal “Shy Di” persona was completely a creation of a press. A bit like the common impression that the Queen Mother “sweet ol’granny.”

She said "I'm here, I feel sexy and I love it!" without saying a word.

Your part about Diana’s “revenge” dress was a light bulb moment, that’s what Meghan was trying to emulate at Katy Perry concert! When has she ever wore stockings, like EVER! And she had in the little black mini dress! She was cosplaying Princess Diana yet again!!

Regarding the Revenge Dress which was worn by Diana, Princess of Wales - I remember this time well. It was a stressful time for the Royal Family. Everyone seemed to be upsetting the apple cart and airing their dirty linens in public, with divorce and difficulty everywhere. The shimmer of the Royal Family had been dimmed a bit during this time, but certainly not for the first time (Duke of Windsor scandal). I think of this iconic dress as a symbol of liberation and new beginnings for Diana. Which makes her untimely death a few short years later, all the more tragic. Diana also wore red nail polish on her manicured hands - no ladies in the Royal Family were permitted to have longer nails or nails other than nude. But the Princess of Wales was leaving behind the old rules of royalty for a new life. Diana had also always been a nail-biter, so I felt that the new nails were also symbolic of conquering outdated habits and her body was now healthy and strong. That and her body language showed her new-found confidence in herself and in her abilities. (I don’t actually like this dress) but it certainly caused a stir, and reminded everyone what the Prince of Wales had given-up. In hindsight, I think that the Prince of Wales had simply chosen to be with the love of his life. Many things can be said about this timeframe and about the behaviour of the participants in this real-life drama, but no one can now doubt the love that the King has for the Queen.

His interview he gave that night was supposed to be so groundbreaking, but nobody cared they all talked about HER! She was all over the papers the next morning! All over talk tv, the news, everywhere. She didn’t want to put it on but afterwards; afterwards she was pleased as punch. It always galled Charles that she, the shy 19 year old kindergarten teacher, got so much more attention than him; the heir to the throne. But there it was.

@@fibanocci314 I’ve been a follower of the Royal family for about 40-45 years. Before the internet, I read plenty of books. It doesn’t give me actual face to face conversations with people, but I guess it gives you some insight. And when the internet and tv coverage of the Royal Family started in earnest, you could see it with your own eyes. Charles has had a destiny since the day he was born. It’s a destiny that only few people can truly share. And that is a special, unique group of people. When Charles married Diana, he brought her into that fold, that family. And as soon as she became part of the family people were mesmerised by her. They called out for her on walk abouts. They wanted her on their side of the street. You could see in Charles’ face that it upset him because the cameras showed it. I was there twice for walk abouts in person. The night Charles gave his interview on television was groundbreaking. There had never been a Royal on television talking about actual feelings before. At that time, and I suppose a this time, it’s wasn’t/isn’t supposed to be about the person but the service, the leadership, the gentle guidance that they could give to the nation. But on this particular occasion, no one was talking about Charles. Anyone and everyone was was talking about her, and her dress. And her attitude that night. Her smile, her face. And the day following, and the weeks and the years that have gone by, people still talk about Diana and how remarkable she looked. How she was able to get dressed, go out, and smile while her husband was sharing on television deep secrets about their marriage. So maybe I don’t have face to face knowledge of Charles’ feelings, but it was reported by who did know him face to face. I guess that’s how I can say “it galled him”. And if you don’t like that particular word, it certainly bothered him deeply. When Diana became part of the family, coverage of the family exploded. Blew up. When so many people are saying the same thing, there usually is a bit of the truth in there somewhere. To make this more modern, I suppose you could look at the younger generation of the Windsor family. Current things we can see with our own eyes. Recent photos show Prince Harry scowling. When you see someone scowling, you can infer they’re upset by something just by the look on their face. In the days after the black dress, Charles was pictured with a similar look to his face.

Charles was hanging around with Mrs. CPB who was a bit matronly in comparison to the glamourous Diana. Accordingto those who knew her, it was totally meant to say, How can you leave the beautify Di for this older matronly girlfriend? I sometimes wonder whether Diana knew that she was praised for her appearnce, not her mind or charcter.

Zen days and Princess Catherine can wear anything and it looks good. I think they have similar builds. Great video!

The “ revenge dress” was black, which she felt was okay for her to wear as she was no longer royalty. (Her HRH title was removed upon her divorce.) As an ex-Royal, she was no longer obliged to promote British designers, hence she was free to wear Versace.

Technically she was a royal at the time but she attended a function that wasn’t a royal event (notice Catherine wearing the black dress for a film premiere.) Diana wore the dress right after Charle’s interview came out around 1994 where he confirmed their relationship was broken and that he admitted to having an affair many had speculated was with Camilla. Diana apparently declined going to this event originally, it was a gallery for the Variety Magazine, but she decided after watching Charle’s interview to make arrangements the next day to attend the function and arrived in the dress. In 1992 she was the source to Andrew Morton’s book that released the details of the marital affairs that led her into a separation from Charles. Her interview with Panorama was in 1995 that resulted in the late Queen demanding the two get a divorce, they finalized the divorce in 1996, then she died the next year.

@@kate2create738 Aha! Mandela effect or something! I stand corrected. Thanks for writing.

Whatever she was thinking with the LBD, you can bet she knew what she was doing!

The top of the iconic black dress on AJ seemed too jagged for the ‘feminine flow’ of the rest of the look. Too sharp a ‘jab’ up top! Zendaya’s gown was more classic, but so gorgeous! Perfectly worn! She wore the ‘mermaid dress’ to perfection too!

Do you think some of the folks who dress these ladies don't like them??because some of those dresses are just mean to the wearer

You know . . . I think you're on to something here.

Zendaya’s 2nd dress is exquisite 😍The black ball gown was beautiful, but the bodice looks a bit too short. A choker, or necklace would’ve been a nice addition, & perhaps some opera gloves, but she still looked great 😊

And of course, yes, do more black dresses!!

I kinda love Tilda Swinton’s dress! I think it suits her perfectly, but I agree that the sleeve could have been done in a way that is more cohesive to the dress.

I do get tired of her being put on a pedestal. Neither one of them were perfect

About the ugly dresses: I kept thinking "Nothing can top this!", but nooo, there was something worse yet again! Angelina Jolie's dress: IMO, it was ruined by the absurd look-at-my-leg pose. That's all I can see. I liked the first Vandea (? never heard of her) dress. The other dress had that dropped strap/band/sleeve around the upper arm that looks like it would constrict movement and that I dislike on _any_ dress, even Catherine's. Finally, about Tilda Swinton's first dress: I agree with Beebs that she can get away with it, except for the one-sleeve business which is another one of my bugbears. No sleeves, or two sleeves: pick one, please!

Beebs...your gorgeous self gets prettier every week. I love the color-themed dress designs. I read an article about Billie Eilish and her baggy clothes. While I don't care for her dress at all, it seems to be an elegant version of her baggy clothes lifestyle. It sets it apart because it says that she had input into the design of that dress. She wanted it HUGE! Please do the whole rainbo!

Oh thank you! & that does make sense!

I hate that dress of Diana’s but I’m also not fan of Diana.

Simply Breathtakingly Beautiful - describes how both Princess Diana and Princess Catherine look while walking along or in a still photo - both equally wonderful looks. Both of them just glide along with such grace nothing faults their presence whatsoever in my view or observations. Both of them are absolutely fashion icons of the times. Who wouldn’t want to have such elegance and grace as that. With some other styles in a black dress on some other peoole, i just leave it at the question mark - ? Why? What? How? did anyone dream up an outfit like that. Costume party maybe? 😂

So many thoughts re the Diana 'revenge' dress! She looks fabulous, as she always did. Extra fabulous. And I hope it made her feel great that night. It was certainly a grab for the headlines - a reminder to Charles that she could always get the attention no matter what he was doing. Also of course a kind of 'look what you're missing' kind of dress. But at the same time, sad, to me - because yes you're so beautiful and you can wear a fabulous dress but it isn't those things that make someone in love with you or make your marriage work.

Princess Diana’s revenge dress to me was her saying “I’m free” telling the world that she can finally be who she always was and it was slated to be

"Notice, no tail!" You are genius.

CoCo Chanel once gave her most sage advice for wearing accessories and knowing how much to wear. She said that as you're walking out the front door look in the hallway mirror and take off one piece off. Just one. If that's how CoCo rolled then who am I to question? Her advice has served me well.

Yep I've always thought the black dress looked like the hem rode up.

Angelina Jolie in the "leatheresque" dress is just absolutely stunning, way better than the one with the slit.

Diana gave her interview first and Charle's documentary was in response.

Some of these “dresses” were just to get attention. Flattering the wearer is irrelevant.

I dislike the attention getter/ideological concept approach to clothes. The wearer ends up looking ridiculous.

Billie Eillish's dress has no waist. The dress looks a feather duster. Bebe Rexha's dress is an eyesore from the back. The next dress looks like a diaper.

Yes, please, do more analysis of classic, beautiful black dresses, along with comments on hair and jewelry. Definitely show the appalling for emphasis... but then let us enjoy and revel in BEAUTIFUL dress design. Thanks!

I think Diana did with this dress that every woman will do when things is going haywire around you. Put on a dress that will make the world say wow, you are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

tilda swinton did the most amazing outfits. sometimes not that great, but amazing. the only unfortunate spin-off of diana's black dress was the rash of overly-well endowed women who tried to wear something similar... and there simply was not enough fabric for adequate coverage.

Agree. Tilda has a very strong avant- garde sense of style. She stays true to her vision. There are hits and misses but never dull.

The most iconic little black for me was Audrey Hepburn’s. She was before my time, but that look is still just the best ever.

I love both Zendaya black dresses! Thé full skirted one is gorgeous and classic and I love the pockets. The fishtail is slightly more perfect for her.

Yes please, more black dress videos! My favourite was Princess Diana's revenge dress 🖤🖤🖤

Thank you Beebs. I would LOVE more black dress looks as well as what works best on a different or challenging silhouette! ❤🇦🇺❤️

Yes, more black dress videos, please! More any fashion videos. :-)

I adore Tilda Swinton. She pushes the envelope.

I adore Angelina Jolie's fashion. She's one of my favorite actresses. I would love to see you do another video just on her!

Audrey!!! Nothing beats that dress❤ Julia Roberts Oscar dress was amazing and the one she wore in Pretty Woman. Grace Kelly also had some stunning black dresses.

My favorite black dress was the vintage Valentino that Julia Roberts wore at the Oscar a number of years ago

diana didn't have the body to wear everything...she could look fabulous but she could also look awful...i didn't care for the black dress or her wedding gown 🤷‍♀️

I like the black dress looks. ZENDAYA always looks gorgeous but I do like your number 1 choice best.

Diana’s dress was a massive success and it showed Charles, that no matter what, she would always come out looking like a Queen 👸🏻

Diana knew exactly what she was doing with the revenge dress. The F U heard 'round the world and I loved her even more for it.

The person wearing the worst dress would have needed an extra seat for her right sleeve. Zendaya's first dress was like haute couture from the 1950s (I'm old enough to remember the silhouettes from magazines).

You look fab in this one, Beebs! Red is a great color for you. As far as Diana's reasons....all of the above, lol. I actually love the Zendaya peplum dress on her. She looks really lovely and classy in it. Her hair is styled perfectly.

I read that Diana had had that dress for quite a while, but was told not to wear it by the Palace. She demurred...until Charles said what he said & it became no holds barred at that point.

Those off the shoulder sleeve dresses like the revenge dress look so uncomfortable to me. They look like they're falling off, and the boobs look worried. I want to pull up those "sleeves!" For me Princess Kate ALWAYS comes in first. She's so lovely.

Someone may already have mentioned this, but Diana had had this dress in her wardrobe I’m on. Do you want to dress that most of those women have that we buy thinking, “I have to lose a few pounds“ in order to wear the dress. But in preparing for the evening she decided to try it on, and as we could all see, she looks perfect in that dress. I love how it is associated with a fixed event for both Charles and herself. Very daring in some thing she would never have worn while representing the royal family.

It was a slap to the RF. Black-not supposed to wear except to funerals . Bare shoulders another no no

Does Gucci dislike Eilish. Who let her go public with this awful dress. I can’t imagine anyone who would look good in this. I really like your red sweater/blouse. It’s very flattering.
