the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh and other senior royals to
welcome
King Felipe VI and his wife Queen Letizia to Buckingham Palace on
Wednesday night.
She has drawn criticism for playing it safe in the fashion stakes, but tonight the Duchess of Cambridge
proved she is not afraid of pushing the boundaries as she attended a
glittering state banquet held in honour of the King and Queen of Spain.
Kate, 35, looked sensational in a dusty pink custom-made Marchesa gown as she joined Prince William,
the Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh and other senior royals to welcome
King Felipe VI and his wife Queen Letizia to Buckingham Palace on
Wednesday night.
The breathtaking
floor-length dress featured a plunging V-neck in scalloped lace, which
was a surprisingly revealing choice for the duchess and a departure from
the conservative cuts she usually favours.
Despite
her unusually daring choice, Kate ensured the spotlight remained firmly
on the guest of honour, lingering in the background away from
photographers as Queen Letizia took up a spot front and centre.
