The Princess of Wales debuted a new tiara at the South Korea state banquet on Tuesday evening.
Kate, 41, looked stunning in the Strathmore Rose tiara, which belonged to the late Queen Mother.
The floral headpiece was a wedding gift to then Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon (later the Queen Mother) from her father, the Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne in 1923. She often wore the tiara across her forehead, as was the style in the 1920s.
The Princess teamed the jewels with a white Jenny Packham gown, embroidered with gold floral detailing.
Kate has often turned to the British fashion designer for some of her most stunning evening looks, including a glittering gold sequin number for the James Bond premiere in 2021.
But ultimately the breathtaking tiara was the star of the show. Her brunette locks were swept off her face in a half updo, so the late Queen Elizabeth II’s diamond pendant earrings could be seen.
As you would expect from the Princess, her makeup was elegant to highlight her natural beauty. The royal wore a smokey eye with a sweep of blusher and a pink lip.

The coordinating ruby heels and matching envelope clutch were a stunning finishing touch. Her hair added to the glamour as it was styled in a balletic chignon and her drop diamond and sapphire earrings were simply breathtaking.

She was seen re-wearing her royal blue Lisou London ‘Betty Rainbow’ printed shirt with a pair of black belted trousers, perhaps even skinny jeans.
The mother-of-three wore her hair in her signature bouncy waves when she shared her important message. “Tonight is all about helping to support, champion, and empower all children to be the very best they can be, which is crucial for their future health and happiness, ” HRH said. “Our relationships, surroundings, and experiences during the earliest years lay the foundations that shape the rest of our lives.”
The royal also wowed when she repurposed her incredible Emilia Wickstead purple pant suit when she gave a keynote speech last week at the Shaping Us National Symposium at The Design Museum in London.
