Model Elsa Hosk Channels Princess Diana on Halloween with 'Revenge Dress' Energy
Elsa Hosk, a Swedish supermodel, commemorated Halloween by channeling Princess Diana's renowned style, referencing it as a tribute to the late Princess of Wales's renowned "revenge dress," People reported. Hosk unveiled her outfit on Instagram on October 31, 2024, spreading the message, "Wishing you an ICONIC Halloween🖤." Her ensemble mirrored Diana's statement attire, incorporating a black, off-the-shoulder dress with an asymmetric hem and chiffon train, complemented by a goose feathers hairstyle and pearl jewelry.
Elsa's nod to Diana resonated with fans, including Hailey Bieber. Hosk absorbed Diana's essence entirely, recalling the evening in June 1994 when Diana appeared at a London gala in a bold, black gown by Greek designer Christina Stambolian. Diana's choice came on a significant night when her husband, then-future King Charles, acknowledged his infidelity on national television. Her attire declaration earned the moniker "revenge dress" owing to its impactful message.
As an integral glamorous memory of Diana's style, the look continues to captivate even 30 years on, featuring in pop culture phenomena like season 5 of "The Crown" on Netflix. Traditionally theatrical moments such as these substantiate Diana's timeless allure, exemplified further by people's enduring fascination which saw the gown fetching $65,000 at auction following her tragic demise in 1997.
A short video from Hosk's Instagram showed her embodying Diana's signature lope through lush greenery with charms akin to Diana's Serpentine Gallery jouney, synchronized alongside "Rule Britannia" by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Erasing pathos for pomp, Hosk finished with nostalgia by incorporating two pieces of historical proof, tabbing the spirit of Diana into today.
