Kate Middleton was a vision in a monochrome ensemble when she attended a Service of Thanksgiving at Westminster Abbey on the 80th anniversary of VE Day on Thursday, May 8th.

She was joined by her husband Prince William, as well as King Charles, Queen Camilla, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, and more. But she unsurprisingly stole the show with her chic and elegant ensemble!

Kate Middleton Looks So Elegant In A Polka Dot Alessandra Rich Dress For 80th Anniversary Of VE Day

The Princess of Wales rewore her demure Alessandra Rich long-sleeved polka dot silk midi dress, which she previously donned for the Order of the Garter Service back in June 2023.

This time, she teamed the dress with a Juliette Botterill hat, which she also wore on Remembrance Sunday last year, a tan DeMellier handbag, and Ralph Lauren tan heels, with her hair worn in an intricate low bun.

For jewelry, the mom-of-three went for the late Princess Diana's Collingwood drop pearl earrings, which she has worn on several occasions over the years. And as expected, her fans were besotted with her classic look.
