How Princess Diana passed off cheap costume jewelry as expensive jewelry. In 1985 in Italy, Diana appeared wearing a pearl choker necklace and luxurious earrings with pearls in the shape of hearts. The next day all the secular press did not get tired of discussing these jewelry. And did not even suspect that they were actually princess bought in a small store Butler \u0026 Wilson on Fulham Street for about 50 pounds sterling. The pearl earrings were the Princess of Wales' first purchase at the then little-known Butler \u0026 Wilson. And since then, as Lady Di's personal bodyguard Ken Wharf recalls, the woman has visited every two or three months. Simon Wilson, the store's owner, soon ceased to be surprised by the princess's visits. "She behaved like the most ordinary customer, except that she sometimes wore a baseball cap and was with a security guard. She could calmly put the earrings she liked on her ears and ask other customers what she looked like. Those who recognized her almost fainted," the owner will tell us 20 years after the death of his famous customer.
