The chic wardrobe of Princess Diana's niece Lady Kitty Spencer

Princess Diana's niece Lady Kitty Spencer is famous for her glamorous fashion moments.

One showstopping moment occurred when she hit Lake Como in July of 2019 for a glamorous event with the diamond brand, Bvlgari.

The 29-year-old was photographed by the lake in a striking, transparent rose petal dress by another famous Italian brand she is affiliated with, Dolce & Gabbana. She captioned the image, 'La Vie en Rose.'

The event was to mark the launch of Bvlgari’s Splendida Tubereuse Mystique​ fragrance.

Spencer, who has 500,000 followers, shows off her fashionable travels around the world on Instagram.

Who is Lady Kitty Spencer?

Lady Kitty Spencer is the niece of Princess Diana, which makes her Prince William and Harry’s first cousin.

Her mother is former model Victoria Aitken - which explains her great bone structure - while her father is Earl Spencer.

Spencer got an early start in front of a camera when she appeared with her mother on the cover of Harper's Bazaar in 1992.

The model and It girl, who grew up in Cape Town, has walked in Dolce & Gabbana's runway show and appeared in their Millennial campaign, but she likes to wear a wide range of other designers too, including Zimmerman, Dior and Ralph Lauren.

Lower down the royal pecking order than her cousins Princes Harry and William, Lady Kitty Spencer doesn't carry out any official royal family duties, giving her plenty of time for modeling commitments, world travel and hanging out with her cat, Baby D.

She also joins in the celebrations at the Evening Standard Theatre Awards.

Raised off the royal grid in South Africa, where she wasn't followed closely by the media, Lady Kitty Spencer stayed in the country for college, where she attended the University of Cape Town. She then came to London to get a Master of Arts in Luxury Brand Management from Regent’s University.

You can expect to see a lot more of the 29-year-old in the future. She’s represented by Storm Management, who discovered Kate Moss and also have fellow royal Lady Amelia Windsor on their books.

She appeared in the Dolce & Gabbanna 'Millennial' campaign for summer 2018 alongside Getty heiress Isabel Getty and Austrian royal Eleonore Habsburg.

The campaign showed her tucking into a plate of spaghetti, Sophia Loren-style, in a black lace dress.
