The Princess of Wales may have put her clubbing days behind her, but that doesn't mean we've forgotten about her incredible partywear looks. Before she married Prince William and entered into the realm of royal life, Princess Kate loved a night out and served up a host of memorable outfits for each occasion.
Back in 2008, the royal-to-be enjoyed an evening out in London and made quite the impression with her bold attire. Sporting a colourful dress featuring a low scoop neck, a belted waistline, and a black trim that encompassed a funky, artistic design boasting yellow, orange, and sky blue tones, the princess rocked the quirky number which made for a unique outfit choice.

She wore her envy-inducing chocolate locks down loose with an off-centre parting and debuted a classic noughties makeup blend. A rosy complexion, a bronzed smoky eye, a luscious flutter of mascara and a nude lip highlighted her natural features.

Kate's unexpected look perfectly tapped into the playful zeitgeist of the 2000s. The noughties were a colourful melting pot of divisive trends. Experimental, deconstructed silhouettes and textures culminated in what we have come to know and love as Y2K - a style popularised by the likes of Britney Spears, Destiny's Child and Paris Hilton.

As we have established, Kate owned an array of charming ensembles for night outs, and we also happened to notice a particularly silky concoction donned by the St. Andrews graduate back in 2007. During a sisterly evening soiree at Mahiki with her sibling Pippa Middleton, Kate slipped into a satin paisley dress featuring a halterneck and a scarf print.
