The Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton wore a festive green dress to her latest engagement. The Duchess looked suitably festive for the party season ahead as she wowed in a green designer dress on Tuesday evening (3 December) while attending an event at Buckingham Palace.

Kate chose a high-necked design by one of her go-to high-end brands, Emilia Wickstead, for the NATO reception, which was hosted by Her Majesty The Queen.

The Duchess’ green pleated high-neck midi dress has a nipped-in waist and flattering long sleeves.

Last night, The Duchess of Cambridge joined The Queen, The Prince of Wales and other Members of the Royal Family at a reception for @NATO leaders at Buckingham Palace, to mark 70 years of the Alliance. The North Atlantic Treaty – or Washington Treaty – forms the basis of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organisation). It was signed on the 4th April 1949 by 12 founding members. The NATO Alliance is now formed of 29 countries. It exists to protect the people and territory of its members, and is founded on the principle of collective defence. The Duchess, along with other Members of the Royal Family, welcomed NATO leaders, members of their delegations and NATO staff in the Picture Gallery.

Kate paired the dress with dazzling diamond drop earrings, and wore her dark hair down in a signature blow-dry.

The 37-year-old looked radiant as she chatted to guests at the glamorous reception, which was held to mark 70 years of the NATO alliance.

Kate has inspired us to shop for a festive outfit yet again, after wearing an equally seasonal red printed midi dress by Alessandra Rich in photos shared last weekend of her and Prince William filming their upcoming festive BBC One cooking special with Mary Berry, A Very Berry Christmas.
