As the sister of the Princess of Wales, it is no surprise that Pippa Middleton is something of a fashionista. However, it isn't every day that she attends red carpet events, meaning many royal fans have long forgotten her movie premiere outing from 2012, despite how stylish her ensemble was.
The author and columnist, 41, was spotted on a solo outing to the UK film premiere of Shadow Dancer at Cineworld Haymarket 13 years ago, where she was a sunkissed beauty in a black mini dress.

Though a red carpet appearance is a rarity for the wife of hedge fund manager James Matthews, the Shadow Dancer premiere was not the only time Pippa walked the red carpet.
In 2014, the royal's sister headed to the GQ Men of the Year awards at The Royal Opera House, where she donned a sheer beaded dress by Hugo Boss.

Prior to her 2017 wedding, where she donned a bespoke Giles Deacon bridal gown, Pippa's most standout dress was worn to the Boodles Boxing Ball at The Grosvenor House Hotel in 2015.
Looking like a beautiful butterfly in royal blue, Pippa wore a cutout halterneck gown which floated behind her as she walked by one of her sister's go-to designers, Jenny Packham.
