Kate Middleton rewore one of her most dazzling dresses at a gala dinner this week.
On Monday, the Duchess of Cambridge hosted a celebration in honor of Place2Be, a charity that supports children’s mental health, at Buckingham Palace in London, England. While there, she was photographed wearing a blue, long-sleeved gown with a sparkling bodice.
Middleton was last pictured wearing the dress, designed by Jenny Packham, during her 2016 tour of India.
While she carried the same bejeweled clutch from the last time she was pictured wearing the outfit, Middleton paired the dress with sparkling heels and dangling pearl earrings. She also wore her hair in loose waves.
Back in 2016, however, the duchess took a much more formal approach, wearing a matching blue shawl over the dress, accessorizing with blue statement earrings, and styling her hair in an elegant updo.
Middleton often recycles pieces she already owns
In January, for example, she donned a two-piece set from Dolce & Gabbana, which she previously wore in February 2019.
She first wore the outfit with black tights and black pumps while attending the Mental Health In Education conference in London. Almost one year later, she wore the exact same outfit to attend a workshop run by the National Portrait Gallery's Hospital Programme at Evelina Children's Hospital.
