Resembling a vintage star in a brand new look, Princess Eugenie reunited with her royal cousins in style during a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday.
Eugenie, 35, was spotted at the event hosted by the Prince and Princess of Wales in a never-before-seen polka dot Rixo dress. The figure-flattering number featured a cinched waist, V-shaped neckline, and floaty skirt. A ruffle below the waist added a feminine touch.

The Princess of Wales, who attended yesterday's event in a lemon yellow dress by Emilia Wickstead, wore a near-identical look to the 2023 Commonwealth Day Service at Westminster Abbey. Kate, 43, wore a matching Erdem set and dramatic navy hat by John Boyd.

Sarah, now 65, proved her penchant for polka dots in a skirt suit and too rocked an eye-catching hat, though hers was in white with a matching polka dot mesh.

However, she paid homage to her mother when she too attended the Epsom Derby 24 years on from her mother's appearance. The King's niece styled her belted midi dress with a dual-toned hat and strappy heels.
