In addition to choosing her mother-in-law&#39;s favorite tiara, for Queen Elizabeth II&#39;s New Year&#39;s Eve dinner she was inspired by an iconic dress worn by Lady Di in 1985.

This past Wednesday, Kate Middleton decided to honor her mother-in-law, Princess Diana, at a gala event. At the traditional Diplomatic Corps reception dinner hosted by Queen Elizabeth II, she chose a long-sleeved velvet dress that closely resembled the iconic dress worn by Lady Di during a White House dinner in 1985.

Also, to compose the look signed by Alexander McQueen, she wore a royal blue band from the Royal Victorian Order, Queen Victoria&#39;s cavalry order of the time, as well as the <a href="https://www.revistalofficiel.com.br/joias/kate-middleton-usa-a-deslumbrante-tiara-lover-s-knot-a-favorita-de-lady-di">Queen&#39;s Mary Lover&#39;s Knot tiara</a> , her mother-in-law&#39;s favorite.

The accessory made in 1913 is a replica of the one that belonged to Queen Mary&#39;s grandmother. It&#39;s all diamonds and pearls, it&#39;s been part of the royal family for over a century and was given to Diana as a wedding gift.

The choice of pieces only proves us once again about the refined and special taste of Duchess Kate who, whenever she can, makes sure that the world can remember a little of the beautiful moments lived by her mother-in-law.

Her 85-year-old velvet dress became known as the &ldquo;Travolta Dress,&rdquo; as it was with him that William and Harry&#39;s mother danced with John Travolta in the halls of the American Palace and, according to Palace sources, was the inspiration behind from the play signed by Alexander McQueen for Kate.

Lady Di&#39;s original strapless piece was in stock and sold this week for &pound; 264,000, the equivalent of $ 1.4 million.
