Princess Eugenie brought a touch of royal glamour to Hong Kong this week as she attended the prestigious Art Basel event.

The 35-year-old opted for a striking emerald green ensemble featuring a bold thigh-high split dress that would have certainly turned heads.

To complement her statement dress, Princess Eugenie layered a chic black double-breasted jacket, the 'Lavinnia' from high-street favourite Reiss. The tailored silhouette of the jacket provided a sophisticated contrast to the daring nature of the dress.

Amping up the glamour, the Princess also accessorised with the 'Serrano' Black Teddy Bag from Divlos and a delicate gold necklace.

Princess Eugenie's love for art

It's no surprise Eugenie attended the art event in Hong Kong this week. Princess Eugenie is a director for the art gallery Hauser & Wirth.

After gaining a 2:1 in English literature and history of art from Newcastle University in 2012, Eugenie moved to New York for a year to work for online auction firm Paddle8.

She then moved back to London to begin her role as associate director at Hauser & Wirth in 2015, and was then promoted to director two years later.

For the royal, working within the art world is, as she once described it, "pretty much a dream," a love affair that began in her childhood.

Reflecting on her career path with Harper's Bazaar, Eugenie previously explained: "I knew I definitely wouldn’t be a painter, but I knew this was the industry for me. I love being able to share my passion for art with people."
