The Princess of Wales never fails to leave a memorable impression at the Royal Variety Performance.
Over the years, she has opted for an exquisite range of gowns – from a timeless black lace Alexander McQueen number or a dramatic caped design by Safiyaa.
This year, she embraced the festive spirit in a deep green velvet Talbot Runhof dress, crafted from comfortable stretch velvet. The clever shoulder-draping detail created the illusion of short sleeves while accentuating the decolletage.
The gown’s figure-skimming bodice gracefully flared into a sweeping fishtail skirt, creating a refined red carpet moment for the Princess.
To complete the look, she teamed it with matching green velvet Manolo Blahnik court shoes, her signature silver Jenny Packham clutch, and a selection of royal heirlooms: the Greville Chandellier Earrings and Queen Mary‘s Choker Bracelet.
Inspired by her glamorous aesthetic? We’ve trawled the high street to find affordable dresses that channel Kate’s style – offering the same dose of glamour, without the royal price tag.
Any of these dresses will make a standout choice for a Christmas or New Year’s celebration.
