Let’s talk about fashion and royalty, folks! When Kate Middleton graced the red carpet at London’s Portrait Gala at the National Portrait Gallery on March 12, 2019, royal watchers immediately noticed something familiar about her gown. Yes, you guessed it — it was a royal rewear! The Duchess of Cambridge has a knack for making old outfits look brand-new, and this time was no exception.
For this event, the 37-year-old duchess stunned in an Alexander McQueen floral gown that she first wore to the BAFTAs back in February 2017. But here’s the twist: she gave it a modern update by adding capped sleeves. Now, that’s what I call style evolution! Despite the lack of her husband, Prince William, by her side, Kate still managed to turn heads as she walked the red carpet. Let’s take a closer look at both versions of this iconic dress below!

Evening of Glamour and Charisma
As the night unfolded, Kate mingled with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry, including Naomi Campbell, David Beckham, and Victoria Beckham, along with the ever-stylish Kate Moss. The event also marked the first public appearance of William’s cousin, Princess Beatrice, with her boyfriend, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. Now, that’s what I call a star-studded evening!
This year’s Portrait Gala was all about raising funds for a special initiative called “Inspiring People: Transforming Our National Portrait Gallery.” The aim? To give the iconic art museum a much-needed facelift. As a patron since 2012, Kate took the opportunity to connect with members of the Youth Forum and admire the creative works produced by the outreach programs. Talk about dedication to the arts!
