Kristen Stewart has been filming upcoming Princess Diana pic Spencer for the past couple weeks, with photos coming out here and there showing how much the actress looks like Diana on set. Yesterday, more photos were released of Stewart shooting a scene in Dülmen, Germany—and they gave a look at how Diana’s street style is going to be depicted in the film.

Stewart wears a dressy-casual look in the photos: a white blouse, red and green tweed blazer, pencil skirt, sheer tights, and black sneakers, of course. According to Daily Mail, the blazer channeled what Diana wore during her 1989 visit to Portsmouth:

Spencer, directed by Pablo Larrain, is based on the Christmas weekend that Diana spent in Sandringham in 1991, where she decided to get a divorce from Prince Charles—hence the jolly green and red tweed.
Stewart released a statement when production released the first official photo of her as the late princess. “Spencer is a dive inside an emotional imagining of who Diana was at a pivotal turning point in her life,” she said of the project. “It is a physical assertion of the sum of her parts, which starts with her given name; Spencer. It is a harrowing effort for her to return to herself, as Diana strives to hold onto what the name Spencer means to her.”
Stewart opened up to InStyle in October 2020 about preparing to play Diana ahead of filming. “We don’t start shooting until mid-January,” she said. “The accent is intimidating as all hell because people know that voice, and it’s so, so distinct and particular. I’m working on it now and already have my dialect coach. In terms of research, I’ve gotten through two and a half biographies, and I’m finishing all the material before I actually go make the movie. It’s one of the saddest stories to exist ever, and I don’t want to just play Diana—I want to know her implicitly. I haven’t been this excited about playing a part, by the way, in so long.“
