Season 4 of Netflix's The Crown is going to drop in its entirety on Nov. 15.

The season will introduce Princess Diana (Emma Corrin) and explore her early days as Lady Diana and the start of her relationship with Prince Charles (Josh O'Connor).

It's believed the season will go from the late 1970s to approximately 1990, which leaves plenty of potential material – and style moments – to see on The Crown.

We have previously asked HELLO! Canada readers what they would like to see on the series. This time, we've rounded up Princess Diana moments from the period we'd love to see on the royal show.

Scroll through the gallery (or click through if you're on desktop) to see the best Princess Diana moments we'd like to watch on The Crown.

Diana and Charles's early romance, 1980

Princess Diana at polo, 1980

There are so many iconic fashion moments, including her in the Warm & Wonderful Black Sheep Wool Sweater at Windsor Polo in 1980.

It would be fun to see the sweater on The Crown, especially since it has recently been reissued.

Charles, Diana and William's royal tour, 1983

It is known that a young Prince William will feature this season. The young family's iconic tour of New Zealand and Australia from early 1983 could highlight some very sweet moments.

William was just nine months old at the time and he was the first royal baby to travel overseas with his parents.

Diana dancing with John Travolta, 1985

One of Diana's most iconic moments was when she danced with John Travolta at the White House on Nov. 9, 1985 as then-President Ronald Reagan and his wife Nancy Reagan looked on. How could they not include it?

Back To The Future premiere, 1985

A great pop culture-royal moment was when the Princess of Wales attended the London premiere of Back to the Future and met with Steven Spielberg, his then-wife Amy Irving and Phil Collins. It would be fun to see who the showrunners would cast to portray the stars!

Princess Diana in Japan, 1986

Royal tours are always fascinating, and Charles and Diana's visit to Japan from 1986 would make for great TV. Diana donned a beautiful blue Yuki dress and a blue sapphire and diamond headband repurposed from a necklace from the Saudi Suite to a dinner with Emperor Hirohito on May 12, 1986.

Princess Diana and Prince Charles at Cannes, 1987

Seeing Princess Diana and Prince Charles step out to the Cannes Film Festival in May 1987 for a gala night was incredible. And so was the princess's Catherine Walker gown and matching scarf.
