Kim Kardashian Showcases Princess Diana’s 1987 Amethyst Cross Necklace
Kim Kardashian has recently been seen wearing the iconic Attallah Cross, an amethyst and diamond necklace once famously worn by Princess Diana.
Originally crafted by the jeweler Garrard, the cross pendant was notably worn by Diana at a 1987 charity gala, paired with a purple Catherine Walker gown.
The piece, shaped as a cross and featuring large amethyst stones, became one of Diana’s most memorable accessories.
Kardashian acquired the necklace in a Sotheby’s auction in January 2023 for nearly $200,000.
This historic jewelry choice follows her trend of collecting items worn by cultural icons, as she also famously wore a Marilyn Monroe dress to the 2022 Met Gala.
Kardashian’s public appearance with the Attallah Cross aligns her with Princess Diana’s legacy, adding to her growing collection of rare fashion artifacts associated with late icons.
