A blouse worn by Diana, the Princess of Wales, for her engagement portrait is up for auction.
Worn by the royal for her portrait in 1981, the pink crepe blouse has a ruff-like collar and loose pleats to the front.
Julien’s Auctions has put Diana’s garment up for auction and estimated its value to be between $80,000 (£63,490) and $100,000 (£79,360).
In 2019, the blouse was on display at Kensington Palace as part of the exhibition Diana: Her Fashion Story.
It was created by David and Elizabeth Emanuel – who later went on to design Diana’s wedding gown for her marriage to King Charles, the then-Prince of Wales – and was captured by royal photographer Lord Snowdon.
The National Portrait Gallery said the picture, published in Vogue magazine, coincided with the official announcement of the engagement of Charles and Diana in February 42 years ago.
Julien’s Auctions and TCM Present: Hollywood Legends will be held in Beverly Hills, California, and online from 14 to 17 December.
An evening dress, also worn by Diana, will be available at the same auction.
Designed by Moroccan-born fashion designer Jacques Azagury, it was worn in Florence, Italy, in April 1985 and is estimated to be worth between $100,000 and $200,000 (£158,720).

The auctioneer Sotheby’s said bidding for the sweater jumped from $190,000 (£150,754) to its final price after a 15-minute bidding battle.
