Funny how Diana worn so many black and white outfits to Japan and they were only there for 5 days.
There was that white jacket with black collars & black pleated skirt & flying saucer hat that she worn in Washington and many many many other times.
the that black/navy & white suit with the center being white. then the white coatdress with the flounced black collar (first worn Austria April '86).
Kinda interesting!!!
