Burgers, Bangs and Banana Republic + Special Guest Cynthia Houlton, Sotheby’s
It’s a royal grab bag of news this week: from the Invictus Games to tributes for Queen Elizabeth II one year after her death.

But the biggest scoop might be that Ladies Rachel & Roberta visited Princess Diana’s iconic sheep sweater on display in NYC last week, and sat down with Cynthia Houlton, Global Head of Fashion & Accessories at Sotheby’s, to discuss how such an item comes to auction, its miraculous discovery, the final selling price (a WHOPPING $1.1 MILLION) and so much more.
