Why Now
On November 20, 2025, the Grevin Museum in Paris unveiled a new wax figure of Princess Diana, dressed in the black 'revenge dress' she wore in 1994. This event coincides with the 30th anniversary of her famous BBC interview, which had a significant impact on the British monarchy. The figure is strategically placed away from those of her ex-husband and mother-in-law, highlighting her distinct legacy. Diana's tragic death in Paris in 1997 has kept her memory alive, with many admirers leaving flowers at informal memorials. The museum aims to attract visitors with this addition, as Diana remains a symbol of modern royalty. French novelist Christine Orban noted the dress's significance as a turning point in Diana's life, representing her liberation from royal constraints. The museum continues to draw crowds, with Diana's figure expected to be a major attraction.
