Glamour has tweeted the photo beside a photo of Princess Diana in a similar outfit.

Speaking with InStyle, Stewart, an American, noted some of the challenges of playing the princess, saying  “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.”

Stewart has also said of the role “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.”
