Stunning actress Elizabeth Debicki, who is known for playing the late Princess Diana in The Crown, stepped out in LA last week, where she attended the InStyle Imagemaker Awards.

The 36-year-old lit up the red carpet in a dazzling black dress by Kallmeyer. The dress featured a low front and had a slinky, fluid finish. The star teamed the glittering look with a pair of sandals by Jimmy Choo and wore her long blonde hair loose and straight.

We couldn't help but be reminded of Princess Diana when we saw Elizabeth's dress. Diana famously wore a similar style back in 1995, and we think you'll agree, it looks remarkably like this Kallmeyer design.

King Charles' former wife attended a gala in aid of Cancer Research at Bridgewater House in London and donned this beautiful black silk dress with a long hem by Jacques Azagury. The waist bodice was embellished with a smattering of sequins.

Accessorising with her iconic seven-strand pearl choker, the famous piece featured a sapphire clasp with two rows of diamonds surrounding it. Diana's ensemble was modern, and the heirloom necklace gave it a regal finish.

Elizabeth reflects on her role as the late Princess Diana

In 2022, the actress reflected on her standout role to Vogue, musing: "It's a huge gift to learn what I've learned about this person. In so many ways, it’s a story of immense transformation – and triumph too. The public got to watch her evolve into an incredibly strong woman, trying to control a narrative that was the slipperiest thing ever."

Elizabeth also revealed that one of the aspects of playing the late Princess that most fascinated other people was the fact that she would be wearing Diana's famous 'revenge dress'.

Speaking of filming those scenes, Elizabeth told Entertainment Weekly: "It provoked something in me as an actor. I can't really explain it. It's pretty incredible that a dress would represent a moment in history, or that this human's life would represent so much and become so iconic. So that was a big day on set for me!"
