The famous <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/lifestyle/fashion-beauty/2023/09/07/michelle-obama-and-princess-diana-outfits-up-for-auction-at-new-york-fashion-week/" target="_blank">black sheep jumper</a> worn by <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/arts-culture/film-tv/2023/09/02/princess-diana-labels-her-marriage-ridiculous-in-unheard-tapes/" target="_blank">Princess Diana</a> has sold for a record sum at Sotheby's in New York. The jumper, which she wore at a polo match in 1981 while engaged to the future King Charles III, sold for £920,000 ($1.14 million) after 15 minutes of bidding. It is the most expensive jumper ever sold at auction. The sweater was originally estimated to be sold for somewhere between $50,000 and $80,000. The knit piece was created by the label Warm & Wonderful, and features rows of white sheep contrasted with a solitary black sheep in the front. The label was requested by Buckingham Palace to secure a replacement after Diana's original jumper was damaged. She wore the replacement jumper at a 1983 polo match. Diana's sweater was part of Sotheby's Fashion Icons auction, which also included a dress worn by former US first lady Michelle Obama, as well as garments worn by actresses Kate Winslett and Sarah Jessica Parker.
