Last summer, at a sale of Princess Diana’s fashion by juliens_auctions, I watched a woman in a pink dress standing at the back of a ballroom at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills snap up lot after lot. Who was she? And what was she doing with her winnings? Allow me to introduce you to Renae Plant, founder of The Princess Diana Museum. Plant, an Australian mother of three and preschool director in Los Angeles, has spent the last decade amassing a vast collection of Diana’s personal artifacts. “All of her pieces were being scattered aimlessly around the world to the highest bidder, but no one was really putting them in one place to honor her life and legacy,” she told me. “I knew it was my calling to do it.” Plant, her collection, and her mission have the full townandcountrymag treatment in the April issue of the magazine. #princessdiana #royalfashion
