@dulwich. Just curious...were you in the

 USA or in England or somewhere else the night if Diana's crash? And if you were in England, did you see in person the flowers and people outside Kensington? Or the funeral procession?

I thought the statue seemed rather stiff, formal and yes, dark.  None of these reflect the joy that was in Diana. 

I can't get past the belt buckle.  I understand it was copied from a real dress she wore, but really, why THAT one?

@Pearlee  Yes we were in U.K. did see the flowers.  Re funeral procession DH and I were invited to a private club in London to watch procession and after to attend an early evening mass.   All very sad.

I wasn't overly in love with the statue of Diana.  She was so vibrant and the statue fails to portray that part of her.  Needless to say I was rather disappointed with it but it is what it is and I'm sure the people of England will enjoy seeing it.
