When Prince Charles married Lady Diana Spencer in 1981 Kim Wran, the daughter of the NSW premier, had been invited to the ceremony and presented them with a pair of Flamingo Park his and hers jumpers. A year later Princess Di, seven months pregnant, was snapped wearing Charles' Koala jumper at the polo. It made headlines around the world and we were bombarded with orders.
