Prince William’s wife wanted to have an echo at the first Earthshot awards gala, a very special project for the Duke.
Catalina de Cambridge attended the delivery of the Earthshot Prize in London, dedicated to the environment, and for the occasion she chose the mythical design that she wore a decade ago at the BAFA 2011 in Los Angeles. This is Alexander McQueen’s pastel lilac Greek-style dress , which was so praised in its day. And as we see, it is eternal and lasts over the years. It is still as beautiful, elegant and impressive as it was then.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the long-awaited first Earthshot Awards gala this Sunday afternoon, a personal project by Prince William that came to light less than a year ago in the midst of the pandemic. Hand in hand with The Royal Foundation, of which the grandson of Elizabeth II and Kate Middleton are presidents, they have organized this gala to try to make the world aware of the importance of caring for the environment. Today they have organized the first gala, where Kate Middleton has wanted to recycle an Alexander McQueen dress that she released ten years ago , making it clear that she is totally committed to caring for the environment.
Let us remember that the textile industry is the second that pollutes the most in the world and in this way, Prince William’s wife contributes her two cents, setting an example to her followers that throughout the world it is important to recycle outfits. Kate’s styles are followed and replicated all over the planet and every garment she wears becomes a trend.
The dress in question is a long lilac dress signed by Alexander McQueen that Kate Middleton debuted at the 2011 Bafta Awards. It is a dress with a pleated body and short sleeves to which the Duchess has added a jewel belt in golden tones. At the 2011 gala, the belt chosen by the Duchess was white.
The Duchess of Cambridge styled her hair parted to the side in casual waves that highlighted her hair ‘babylights’. As accessories, she chose earrings with diamond earrings that she wore at her sister Pipa Middleton’s wedding and Lady Di’s sapphire ring.
