The colour purple truly reigned supreme during the ‘Digger’s premiere in London. The surprising presence of the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, created this atmosphere. She turned heads on the red carpet in a stunning purple evening gown, which contributed to the true royal atmosphere. The gown exuded classic Kate sophistication with its structured yet flowy shape, rich jewel tone, and subdued royal glamour.

For the gala, Kate chose one of her favourite designers, wearing a long-sleeved silk-chiffon gown in deep purple hues by Jenny Packham. The design aligned with Kate’s graceful style both on and off the red carpet, featuring a multi-panel, flowy skirt with a flattering, A-line, floor-length form. The magnificent wardrobe of the Princess of Wales is often regarded as a pivotal contribution to modern royal fashion, however, this particular ensemble made her appear rather classic and old-fashioned, with a hint of modesty. Her hair was styled with a centre part, while curls flowed freely down her back, indicating she aimed to embrace a traditional approach to glamour in this outfit without losing a modern edge.
