Kate Middleton made a triumphant return to the public eye yesterday, attending Trooping the Colour with her family. And the beautiful 42-year-old did so in style. The Princess of Wales wore a white Jenny Packham dress , with black piping and bow detail .
It’s believed to be an upgraded version of the same dress she wore to the Prime Minister’s Lunch in 2023, ahead of King Charles ’ coronation – but with new and improved details. A champion of British design, Kate favours creators such as Alexander McQueen, Jenny Packham, Erdem and more. Meanwhile, she also dips into the high street world and is a keen advocate for longevity and re-wearing pieces .
A British luxury designer, Jenny Packham, who launched her brand in 1988, doesn’t just dress royalty. Her gowns have also been used in James Bond films, and TV hits, including Sex and the City, and Gossip Girl. Here are our favourite Jenny Packham dresses, worn by the Princess.
After tying the knot in April 2011, Kate and her new husband, Prince William, stepped out together for a gala dinner hosted by ARK, a children’s charity. Kate opted for one of her most iconic looks to date: a pink sequin dress with floaty sleeves. At the time, Jenny Packham released a statement on her Facebook page which read: ‘The Duchess of Cambridge attended the Annual Ark Charity Gala tonight wearing an ethereal gown by Jenny Packham.
The Duchess selected the pearlescent rose sequin gown with Swarovski crystal from the SS11 catwalk collectio.
