Kate ‘steps into the limelight’ in Alessandra Rich heels and show-stopping polka dot dress
Kate Middleton looked stunning as she stepped out in Southampton. She rewore a navy and white polka dot dress by Alessandra Rich.
Kate, Princess of Wales looked regal in today as she opened a new residential community.
It has been designed and developed by One Small Thing, a charity with a mission to redesign the justice system for women and their children.
The Princess rocked a chic polka dot dress, mid-length with balloon half-sleeves and a V-neck.
Ever the sustainable fashionista, Kate wore this gown to watch the Men's Singles Final at Wimbledon in 2022.
Today she accessorised with a white bag and white heeled pumps.
The dress was predominantly navy with white polka dots all over.
Its most interesting feature was its balloon sleeves which cinched in and created dimension against the fitted bodice and skirt.
It boasted ruffles along the neckline and a peplum feature which elevated the look.
