Of all the UK royals, no one has changed the face of fashion quite like Diana, Princess of Wales. She was arguably the first member of the family who made fashion and royalty synonymous.
Everything the princess touched or wore turned into sartorial gold. Like her go-to trainers of choice, Superga.
During one of Diana’s last charity missions in Angola, in 1997, the fashion icon wore an Armani jacket, jeans and navy blue Superga trainers – and, naturally, she rocked the look.
Fast forward a generation, and Diana’s would-be daughter-in-law, Kate Middleton – a fashion icon in her own right – is also a fan of the trainer brand. The Duchess of Cambridge has been spotted wearing her Superga kicks a number of times, from a tour of Canada to strolling the Chelsea Flower Show in 2019.
