It's an urban myth that fashion legend Anna Wintour hates polka-dots, but leave it to Princess Eugenie to twist our arm. 

The British royal never fails to have us dazzled by her but not just in recent years.

We often like to hark back to the royals' 2010s fashion when we are short of sartorial inspiration, and this polka-dot mini dress of dreams may be our favourite number yet.

The brunette beauty, then 21, was a vision wearing a white capped-sleeve mini dress adorned with black polka-dots, which she wore while attending the Epsom Derby at Epsom racecourse.

Her monochrome ensemble was complete with an empire-line black belt, accentuating her waist, a black-and-white straw hat and killer black peep-toe stilettos.

The look perfectly flattered the royal, who was rocking an even darker hue of brunette than she does now, her long locks close to an elegant raven shade.

As for her makeup, Eugenie opted for heavy smokey eye makeup, warm bronzer and the 2010s essential - nude lips.

The royal completed her look with towering stilettos covered in glitter, a navy blue sparkling clutch bag and the pièce de résistance, a golden suntan.

Princess Beatrice's dress stood the test of time as five years before she wore the dazzling gown while attending Elton John's eighth annual white tie and Tiara Ball for the AIDS Foundation in 2006.
