The Princess of Wales stunned at her first state banquet in nearly two years, wearing a dark red silk creponne Givenchy evening gown on Tuesday evening (8 July).
Kate joined King Charles III, Queen Camilla and the Prince of Wales at Windsor Castle as part of the French state visit to the UK.
It was her first banquet since November 2023, after her cancer diagnosis in early 2024. She is now in remission.
Her gown, from the French fashion house and designed by her wedding dress creator Sarah Burton, was a diplomatic nod to the King’s guests, French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron.
Footage shows Kate seated next to President Macron, with the pair chatting ahead of the start of the King’s toast.
