If anyone wondered what happens after the fairytale wedding, then just take a look at Princess Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge as she attended a Gala dinner with her Prince at Kensington Palace last night.
Looking every inch the Princess, Catherine seemed happy and relaxed on this, the couple's first official engagement.
Looking stunning in a rose sequined Jenny Packham gown that retails for £3,800 and with a nod to the high street a pair of LK Bennett shoes to match, she hit high in the fashion stakes. Even managing to out-shine season veterans like Liz Hurley who seemed ordinary by comparison in one of her usual floor length numbers with the obligatory thigh high split up the side.
After the gorgeous cappauchino cap at The Derby, and the nude Reiss dress on meeting the Obamas it is clear that Catherine is making some careful choices. With the scrutiny she was inevitably going to be under it is a testimate to her personal strength that she has opted to continue with the under stated style that she has become known to exhibit. These seem like her choices rather than a team of stylists pushing her in the "right
" direction.
Sticking to nudes might be boring to some but she has never been a great experimenter with fashion. She knows what colours and cuts suit her and she will stick to it. Going for a British designer will also be a popoular choice, as whoever she wears inevitably has world wide exposure.
What is clear from the few appearances she has made since the wedding, you cannot put a price on elegance and style. And that the best accessory to any outfit is a handsome Prince. Now where is that Harry.....
