After looking at some of her best moments in the fashion world, there seems to be a striking similarity between the style of and the 44-year-old presenter.
Both women were thrown into the spotlight at a young age. Holly started her career on TV during her early 20s, and the then Prince Charles proposed to Diana just six months into their relationship, when she was 19.
Just like Diana, Holly’s style evolved as she became more confident and independent. If you take a look back at Holly in the early 2000s she was often seen as demure and romantic, as she sported bright colours.
Over time, she swapped her skater dresses for more tailored and refined looks, which in turn allowed her to ooze confidence at award ceremonies like the National Television Awards. From dazzling red carpet gowns to effortlessly chic daytime ensembles, she has mastered the art of regal dressing.

The Revenge Dress
Her latest look seemingly modelled off Diana’s was spotted at the start of February. She joined A-list stars on a green carpet to launch the brand-new series, Celebrity Bear Hunt.
Holly put on a show-stopping display in a low-cut dress, which featured a plunging neckline. This marked the first time we have seen her walk the red carpet since she stepped back from her role as a This Morning host in 2023 following a 14-year stint.
She also sported her signature blonde locks in loose waves and kept her makeup light, adding a glossed lip and accentuating her cheekbones with a pink blush.
This dress was almost identical to Princess Diana’s revenge dress which was a black, off-the-shoulder gown designed by Christina Stambolian that she wore in 1994.
This was one of her most iconic looks as it marked a new chapter in her life. She sent a clear message to her then-husband, Prince Charles, who has since succeeded to the throne.
It featured a busty neckline and an asymmetrical hemline which is very similar to the jaw-dropping garment Holly wore. This was a way for Diana to show the world that she was trying to find herself, which Holly has done by stepping away from her role at ITV.

Beautiful in Blue
In 2021 she was spotted rocking a stunning polka dot frock from L.K Bennett that was worth £350. But this looked remarkably similar to Princess Diana’s that she wore in 1985 and 1993
Over the years, she has worn a variety of polka dot designs throughout her marriage and during royal tours.
Diana wore a navy and white polka dot dress at Kensington Palace which paired the dress with a white collar. This iconic look has even been worn by the Princess of Wales as she stepped out in the now-iconic Alessandra Rich dress which retailed at over £1,500.

Chic and cosy knitwear
The late Princess Diana famously wore the black sheep red jumper created by Joanna Osborne and Sally Muir in 1981 at the Guards Polo Club at Smith’s Lawn in Windsor. Two years later, she wore it again.
It was a gift from the mother of one of the princess’ page boys at her wedding in 1981.
Back in 2020, Holly donned an almost identical jumper. New York-based label Rowing Blazers, teamed up with the original London designers Warm & Wonderful for the re-release.
