Princess Kate has memorably worn the brand's 'Falconetti' dress a few times since it first landed in her wardrobe. Featuring mid-length sleeves with a subtle ruffle trim, a rounded neckline, a ruffled skirt, as well as an all-over metallic sheen, the dress has been previously worn by the stylish royal during a trip to Ireland in 2020.
