Princess Eugenie wore many of the designer's gowns, and in celebration of her life, we have rounded up the best Vivenne Westwood frocks worn by Prince Andrew's daughter through the years.

Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice at the royal wedding in 2011

The princess chose a blue and green Vivienne Westwood two piece that featured a jacket style top and a bombastic skirt. We loved the voluminous taffeta underlay and the asymmetrical hem which she teamed with a contracting hat from royal milliner Philip Treacy. Perfection!

Princess Eugenie looked incredible in this Vivienne Westwood black dress in 2011

A day before William and Kate's wedding, the royal family attended a gala pre-wedding dinner held at the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park for the couple, and Eugenie looked nothing short of sensational in this dazzling black Vivienne Westwood dress. We love the corseted neckline which showed off the royal's tiny waist and gave her an incredible shape. We are totally coveting the corsage detail at the strap, too.

2016 saw Princess Eugenie wear this show-stopping red dress by Vivienne Westwood

Back in 2016, Princess Beatrice's younger sister attended the UNAIDS Gala at the Design Miami Basel in Switzerland. Choosing this tomato red style by VW, it was a true show-stopper and made the raven-haired princess stand out from the crowd. Adore!

She memorably wore a now-famous outfit when she met the Queen in 1992. Vivienne attempted to show off her striking look, but revealed underneath her sheer tights instead!
