But her handbag collection was actually very vast and what’s more, it included some seriously high-end pieces that are still loved today. She rocked them all first!One of the main bags that it’s safe to say that the mother of Prince William and Harry made famous was, of course, the ‘Lady Dior’ bag from Christian Dior. The Lady Dior bag was originally known as the ‘Chouchou’ when it was first dreamed up and wasn’t a super popular seller for the brand. That is, until Diana sported it in 1996, and it quickly became an iconic piece of arm candy.
