With Spencer and The Crown reviving some of Princess Diana's best style moments, KFC took it upon itself to recreate an iconic Princess Diana sweater with a twist. Princess Diana famously sported a red sweater with an all-over pattern of white sheep, plus one rogue black one. Like other outfits sported by the royal, this outfit helped to express her feelings and identity and it can now be found in the permanent collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum.
KFC is paying homage to the iconic sweater with a new take on the design that features all-over chickens instead, plus a lone black chicken "for a tasty dash of KFC." Inspired by Princess Diana's generous spirit, KFC is donating 100% of the proceeds to the KFC Foundation.
