The Duchess of Cambridge dazzles in a bejewelled Jenny Packham gown at the Royal Variety Performance

Kate Middleton is renowned for her sartorial taste and her maternity wardrobe unsurprisingly draws even more adoration from the nation.

So when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium last night, all eyes were on the 35-year-old’s outfit.

It is the second time the royal couple have attended the annual event and at the 2015 show, Kate was pregnant with Princess Charlotte.

And at last night’s performance, the Duchess of Cambridge couldn’t have looked more regal if she tried.

Kate looked for inspiration from one of her favourite designers as she chose to dress her blossoming baby bump in a sky blue gown from Jenny Packham’s autumn line.

Kate accessorised the jewel-emblazoned dress with equally eye-catching heels by Oscar de la Renta and a glittery Jenny Packham box clutch.

The performance, which has been running since 1912, is designed to raise money for the Royal Variety Charity of which Queen Elizabeth II is the patron.

This year, comedian Miranda Hart hosted the show and reportedly had the Duchess of Cambridge in a fit of giggles as Prince William was encouraged to take part by shouting her catch-phrase ‘such fun’ throughout the performance.

While the likes of The Killers, Louis Tomlinson and Paloma Faith performed.

The Royal Variety Performance will be aired on ITV in December.
