Princess Diana's iconic "revenge dress" is heading back to auction. Meghan Markle is reportedly interested in buying it, but she could face some serious competition. A source claims Kim Kardashian is among several high-profile names determined to own the famous gown. With its royal history and emotional significance, the upcoming sale could become a closely watched battle.
Meghan Markle is reportedly hoping to get her hands on one of Princess Diana's most famous looks. The black Christina Stambolian dress is set to return to the auction block in December. Sotheby's expects it could sell for up to £220,000 (approxiamately $2,96,000).
The dress has a story almost as famous as its design. Diana wore it to a 1994 fundraising gala, on the same night then-Prince Charles allegedly admitted to infidelity. She stepped out in the daring off-the-shoulder number instead of following the more restrained royal style expected of her. The look soon earned its now-famous "revenge dress" nickname.
Now, according to New Idea, Meghan is supposedly considering a bid. However, she may have to beat some serious competition to take it home. A source claimed that Kim Kardashian is "determined to own this dress." The insider also named Salma Hayek and Lady Gaga as potential contenders. Several collectors from Qatar and Saudi Arabia are allegedly interested, too.
With that kind of competition, the final price could climb quickly. The source claimed Prince Harry and Meghan's budget could become "a huge problem" when the bidding begins. And apparently, the couple may not even agree on whether the dress should be theirs.
