Kate Middleton rewears gorgeous royal blue gown for charity event at Buckingham Palace
It should come as no surprise that Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, looks absolutely beautiful in royal blue!
From her gorgeous engagement dress to polished looks for everyday events, the former Kate Middleton often returns to the appropriately named color for style inspiration.
The duchess rewore this particular royal blue Jenny Packham gown Monday to host several groups of schoolchildren for a royal gala dinner.
She had previously donned the look while on a royal tour of India in 2016. At that time, she wore her hair in an elegant updo and added a matching shawl and blue earrings.
This time around, she wore her recently trimmed brown locks in classic waves and paired the look with what appeared to be silver chandelier earrings.
The event was held at Buckingham Palace in honor of the 25th anniversary of Place2Be, a charity that provides emotional support for children and believes that no child should face mental health difficulties alone. The duchess is a patron of the charity.
The organization provides counseling, mental health support and training in U.K. schools.
It’s been a long week of engagements for the royal family, as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made some of their final stops as senior members.
Prince Harry and the former Meghan Markle joined William and Kate at the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey in London.
Both duchesses rocked gorgeous jewel tones in their first appearance together since Harry and Meghan announced their plan to “step back” from their royal duties.

TODAY Style took a look back at some of the Duchess of Cambridge’s best royal blue looks.
In April 2016, Kate wrote this blue, polka-dot number for a reception ahead of a royal tour of India and Bhutan at Kensington Palace.
In June 2016, the duchess attended a charity dinner in an off-the-shoulder gown with a V-neckline.
In 2010, William and Kate posed for photographs announcing their engagement. Kate donned a flowing wrap dress for the pictures and it sold out in a flash afterward.
It’s fitting the duchess wears this color so often, since it coordinates perfectly with her stunning sapphire engagement ring!
