One auctioneer is royally out of pocket … shelling out a record-breaking $1.1 million on an evening dress once worn by Princess Diana<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Diana famously took the Jacques Azagury<\/strong>-designed evening gown out for a spin in Florence, Italy, on April 23, 1985 … and close to 4 decades later, the frock has been sold for a whopping $1,148,080.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The final figure was 11 times more than what it was expected to rake in … having been initially listed for an estimate of $100,000 – $200,000 on Julien’s Auction.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It was the top-selling item of the auction house’s 4-day “Hollywood Legends” sale — also breaking the world record for the most expensive dress worn by the late Princess sold at auction.<\/p>\n It’s a stunning gown … complete with celestial-print embroidery, a large bow, and on-trend shoulder pads — and long before Kate Middleton<\/strong> became the queen of recycling, Princess Diana wore it again to the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra in 1986.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This dress was so influential it was also displayed at London’s Kensington Palace for their Fashion Rules exhibit from July 4, 2013, to July 10, 2015.<\/p>\n Diana’s eternal style reign clearly helped boost this mammoth sale … with her 1981 pink chiffon blouse going for $381,000 during the auction, too.<\/p>\n
