Princess Diana’s nieces Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer brought the office siren trend to Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, with full ’80s glamour. The twins traded traditional couture romance for sharp power shapes and high-impact styling.

The 33-year-old twins, who are the daughters of Diana’s brother Charles Spencer, showcased their growing fashion influence while sitting front row at the Zuhair Murad Spring/Summer 2026 show on January 28, 2026. The sisters’ latest appearance saw them swap traditional couture gowns for bold power-dressing silhouettes with a provocative edge.

Eliza leaned fully into an exaggerated ‘80s aesthetic, wearing a plunging black catsuit that dipped to her ribs and fastened with a single button. The look was defined by dramatic padded shoulders embellished with black beading, paired with loose parachute-style trousers, pointed black stilettos and silver statement earrings. Her hair was styled in a deep side part with a wet-look finish, completing the retro mood.

Amelia, meanwhile, opted for a vibrant fuchsia corset dress with a deep sweetheart neckline and visible boning through the bodice. The midi-length look was finished with a matching bolero featuring oversized ‘80s shoulders, while black pointed heels and layered metallic jewellery added contrast. She wore her blonde hair slicked back into a side-parted bun, keeping the focus on the sculptural outfit.

Just a day earlier, the sisters had delivered a very different fashion moment at the Gaurav Gupta Spring/Summer 2026 show, where they coordinated in metallic couture. Amelia wore a plunging silver crop top that revealed her midriff, while Eliza appeared in a cream strapless gown with a thigh-high slit and sculptural floral detailing.

Beyond the runway, the Spencer twins have been steadily building their fashion credentials. In October 2025, they designed their own handbags for Aspinal of London, unveiling the Amelia Bag and Eliza Clutch as part of their role as brand ambassadors.

Speaking with InStyle, Amelia said, “I think the prospect of designing has always been aspirational. We’ve always admired the artistry and craftsmanship that goes into creating accessories.”

Eliza reflected on the twins’ shared creative ambitions, saying, “We’ve often imagined and hoped that this could be an opportunity. But obviously, Aspinal giving us this platform and entrusting us with this opportunity to transform that dream that we’ve always had has been quite an exhilarating and humbling experience.”
