Princess Diana’s stylish nieces certainly know how to command attention. Last week, Lady Amelia Spencer stopped scrollers in their tracks by uploading a striking photograph of herself and her twin, Lady Eliza Spencer, to her Instagram Stories.
Dressed in matching couture by Italian designer Ermanno Scervino, the 33-year-old sisters - long admired for their polished yet adventurous fashion choices, stood hand in hand. Their coordinated looks echoed the late Princess’s own love of ballet-inspired, statement dressing, a connection that becomes even clearer on closer inspection.
Lady Eliza looked stunning in a buttery-yellow dress with intricate lace panels and a softly flared skirt.
While Lady Amelia chose the dramatic black version - the post was a bold nod to the “balletcore” aesthetic dominating catwalks and social media this season, as well as serving as a subtle tribute to their late aunt Diana, Princess of Wales.
With its semi-sheer layers and cinched waist, the dress had a darkly romantic Black Swan feel, refreshed with a shorter, more playful hemline.
The Spencer twins’ styling was instantly comparable to the late Princess's talent for pairing bold pieces with elegant accessories.
With Amelia’s blonde hair swept back into a sleek bun and minimal accessories, the look felt red-carpet ready but also surprisingly wearable for high-glamour events.
Balletcore - the trend recreating the rehearsal-room aesthetic with luxe fabrics and couture shapes - has taken over TikTok with millions of views, and the sisters’ take shows just how easily it can be translated into eveningwear.
Whether worn with classic stilettos or styled down with simple pumps, dresses like these let the fabric and silhouette take centre stage.
