'Spencer' dropped over the weekend, as did the temperature in Hong Kong, and we can’t stop thinking about what sweaters Princess Diana would’ve worn today

She was best known for her coordinated outfits from royal appearances, but Princess Diana’s casual wear was just as memorable. From her iconic sweatshirt and bike shorts combo that shook the athleisure community to the core, to her colourful jumpers with patterns and frills that were oh-so-’80s, these are the best sweaters you can buy today to emulate Princess Diana.

Bright blue and power shoulders are still in style, although this Paco Rabanne jumper has some edits—the crewneck keeps things classic while the cinched waist removes the need for a belt.
