Having written hundreds of stories covering royal fashion, I consider myself the resident royals expert here at Who What Wear. I’ve been chronicling the personal style of Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, and the late Princess Diana for nearly a decade and I don’t plan on stopping anytime soon—in fact, I’ve expanded my coverage to include TikTok too! 

I’ve pored over thousands of images of the British royal family and I can honestly say I’ve never seen the below images of Princess Diana wearing pink Converse sneakers before. From what I could find, she only wore them twice: once at a polo match in 1986 and again while visiting the British army in 1988. Over 30 years later, the shoes are as cool as ever—and still available to shop. Scroll down to see the rare photos in question and shop pink Converse sneakers for yourself.
