10 Trends Princess Diana Wore Before They Were a Thing

One-shoulder tops, off-the-shoulder tops, chokers, corset belts...even tossing a jacket over your outfit and wearing it on your shoulders were all things Princess Diana wore before they were, well, a

This year, 2017, marks 20 years since the tragic death of the style icon. In memory of Lady Di and her legendary wardrobe, we\'re reminding you of the many times she wore a, now, current trend before it was, in fact, a trend. Her trendsetting fashion perspective has influenced that of Kate Middleton\'s and, perhaps, even Meghan Markle\'s.

Without further ado, here at the 10 current fashion trends the Princess of Wales was sporting long before they were dubbed as so.

Wearing an off-the-shoulder anything, as you know, is insanely popular right now, which is why it\'s so important we recognize Princess Diana was already wearing it in 1981.

Before there was the term "Millennial Pink" there was just baby pink, and the style icon wore it a ton.

She wore the color in dress form, suit form and always had an incredible hat to match.

We attribute the \'90s to starting the choker trend, but if you take a deep dive into Princess Diana\'s style archives, you\'ll notice she wore them almost every time she wore formal wear!

It was almost always made of pearls and usually had a gorgeous jewel pendant at the front.

A wardrobe trick as old as time that the Princess did so well: color blocking.

Tons of celebs (and their stylists) love to still sport this look today.

The one-shoulder top trend is just on the rise again, and it\'s no surprise Diana wore that too.

Usually in gown form for important parties and fashion shows.

Dubbed the "cool girl thing to do," thanks to some of today\'s style stars, draping your jacket or coat over your shoulders is still a thing.

It\'s an effortless way to look chic, and we learned it from you-know-who.

Just when you thought the Kardashians invented the corset belt—JK—yet again, Princess Diana wore it first.

No matter the occasion she managed to make the accessory a focal point.

Remember Jennifer Lawrence\'s major Dior moment when she wore a dainty pearl necklace backwards to the Oscars? You guessed it, Lady Di did it first.

This is one statement we foresee standing the test of time, again and again.

\'s actress Shay Mitchell just wore one, proving the tuxedo dress\' impact is still thriving.

Whether Princess Diana was the first to sport one or not, she still made the menswear-inspired look seem polished and feminine.

Also called dungarees, overalls are still a wardrobe staple to this day and, of course, Lady Di was wearing them well before your time.
