The 34-year-old royal looked fashion-forward in an ebony single-breasted cropped dinner jacket by The Kooples and a structured knee-length dress by Louis Vuitton as she arrived at Westminster Abbey on the arm of her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. All eyes were on Beatrice's dress, coined the 'Preppy Martingale Dress' by the luxury label - which showcased a wisp of gothic lace that subtly peeked out from under her sleek blazer, gold buttons and a high neckline.

The mother-of-one, who raises one-year-old daughter Sienna with property developer Edoardo, donned a delicate, Sarah Cant rounded pillbox hat boasting sweet bow detailing. A pair of black tights, a patent leather Fiona Kotur Esprey clutch bag and some classic high heels from Jimmy Choo perfected her look.

The royal family put on a united front for the sombre occasion, which saw the Queen's heartbroken children King Charles III, Prince Edward, Prince Andrew and Princess Anne, and her grandchildren Prince William, Prince Harry and Peter Phillips, walk behind the coffin as part of the funeral procession.

After the service, the coffin will be taken in procession from Westminster Abbey to Wellington Arch and then travel to Windsor.

Once there, the hearse will travel in procession to St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle via the Long Walk, after which a televised committal service will take place inside the chapel.
