The dress featured a mid-calf length skirt, exuding femininity and glamour, while the half sleeves added a touch of sophistication. The top layer was decorated with lace and redesigned detailing, while the multi-layered flared skirt created a glamorous effect. Royal fans were quick to notice that the dress was custom-made, unlike what was available on the designer's website. As expected, she paired the dress with perfectly matching accessories. Her trusty Gianvito Rossi Bordeaux heels rounded off the look, and her Mulberry 'Bayswater' clutch added a touch of elegance.
Notably, Catherine debuted Kate Spade’s new £88 pom-pom fringe earrings, which helped to complete her look. As she stepped onto the red carpet with her signature warm smile, Catherine looked more princess-like than ever, even without the elaborate tiara. The delicate design of the dress reminded everyone why they adored her, and her confident and radiant demeanor further demonstrated her elegance. Catherine has always been a go-to in red, and this look was no exception.
Over the years, she has worn many fashionable red outfits, from LK Bennett and Catherine Hooker slip dresses to stunning floor-length gowns. One memorable look was a BAFTA-inspired midi dress worn by Prine during her Canadian tour, which proved so popular with fans; she loved it so much that she also bought it in black. Her elegant yet tailored royal outfits were evident in her £225 Eugenia dress during a visit to a mental health charity.
Paired with £450 nude suede Jano Rossi pumps, the Duchess of Cambridge is known for her ability to balance style and formality. Known for her love of classic dresses, one of her most iconic pieces was a Catherine Walker design worn at the Carter Medal Ceremony in June this year, highlighting her refined taste. Another memorable moment was when she wore a sparkling Jenny Packham dress to this year’s official diplomatic reception at Buckingham Palace.
The dress has previously been seen on screen at a dinner with Chinese President Xi Jinping, further cementing her reputation for impeccable style. Catherine’s fashion journey shows her ability to mix and match affordable brands with luxury labels. For example, she wore LK Bennett to Wimbledon in 2015, effortlessly teaming it with a £145 DVF leopard print clutch just two months after giving birth to Princess Charlotte.
A standout moment was at the launch of the East Anglia Children’s Hospices Appeal in 2014, when she dazzled in a bright red Catherine Hooker dress while 18 weeks pregnant with Charlotte. Her confidence and charm prove that motherhood only adds to her elegance. With each public appearance, she cements her status as a true style icon, shining not only with her outfits but also with her grace. The world eagerly awaits her next fashion choice.
