Last night, Princess Beatrice of York showed us how to dress a baby bump for party season in the most elegant way possible.

The stylish royal and cousin to Princes William and Harry attended a party at London's iconic Claridges, hosted by Nicky Hilton Rothschild and fashion designer Rebecca Vallance, for their new festive collaborative clothing collection.

In true Beatrice fashion, she oozed elegance in the chicest velvet midi dress with romantic gigot short sleeves and a dazzling crystal-encrusted triple bow design at the chest.

Amping up the pre-festive party glamour, she paired the look with Roger Vivier's Efflorescence Pumps in black satin - a decadent pair of court heels featuring the label's signature jewelled buckle with crystal flowers on the front.

Party season shoe trends come and go - from diamante flats to mesh-covered heels - yet Beatrice's elegant pumps are a pair that will truly stand the test of time.

Her late grandmother, Britain's longest reigning monarch Queen Elizabeth II, also had a lovely for the iconic French Maison Roger Vivier's shoes. So much so that she even wore them to her own coronation on June 2, 1953. In 2020, to mark 67 years of her anniversary, Roger Vivier relaunched the sandals in the Spring/Summer 2020 collection as a tribute to the historical event.
