For the summit, held at London's Buckingham Palace on Monday, January 20, the royal chose a red Aurora gown by Needle and Thread, which is available to buy at Dubai department store Robinsons.

The Needle and Thread dress retails for Dh2,255 at the Dubai Festival City Mall department store. A piece from the brand's Cruise 2020 collection, the duchess's dress had long sheer sleeves, with a high neck and tulle, frill and sequinned details.

The dress comes in mini and full-length cuts and in a range of colours, including black and white, which is also available at Robinsons. There is also a top version available for Dh580 on the brand's international website.

This is the first time the duchess has publicly worn a piece by the British brand. She stuck to a red theme when it came to her accessories, with a Jenny Packham Casa clutch, suede Gianvito Rossi heels and ruby earrings by British brand Soru. The earrings are also available to pre-order online for £140 (Dh670).

The brand has plenty of famous fans, including TV presenter Holly Willoughby, who has previously worn the mini Aurora dress in cream.

The Duchess of Cambridge's Needle and Thread style choice comes days after she chose to wear a classic houndstooth, pussybow midi dress from high-street brand Zara, which is currently selling for Dh149.
