Diana went back to plaid many times over, and anyone planning the months ahead on the island can take the hint. Her example shows a plaid can carry its weight in a wardrobe, more like a dependable friend than a one-time trend. Choose one with crisp lines and confident color, and it will hold its own on Worth Avenue as easily as it did for her. Town & Country has a full guide to dressing in her spirit as autumn comes in.

With reporting from Town & Country.
