The ensemble featured in a series of snaps on the official Instagram account for the royal family alongside the words: "Celebrating the wonderful work of @TheLondonLibrary!

"Last night, The Queen attended a dinner to highlight the Library’s charitable work to support writers and widen access to its vast resources - including 1 million books available to borrow from its shelves.
