Lady Who Wore Diana's Necklace Worth Rs 1.6 Cr

Kim Kardashian made a statement at the LACMA Art + Film Gala on November 2 in Los Angeles by wearing the iconic Attallah Cross necklace, originally worn by Princess Diana. 

The reality star and SKIMS founder used this rare, vintage piece as the centerpiece of her outfit—a pristine white Gucci couture gown paired with a draped trench coat. The necklace, which she acquired at a Sotheby’s auction in 2023 for nearly Rs 1.6 Cr, adds significant historical weight to her ensemble. 

Princess Diana first wore the Amethyst crucifix in 1987 at a London charity event pairing it with a dramatic black and burgundy velveteen gown. Originally created by court jeweler Garrard in 1920, the Attallah Cross was loaned to Diana by her friend Naim Attallah and has a rich family history, with his son recalling its presence at family gatherings.

The necklace’s amethysts, gold, silver and diamonds continue to captivate audiences decades later.
