What was her most expensive dress worn to an engagement?
The Princess’ most expensive dress, not including her wedding dress, cost £7,300, and she has only worn it twice in public.

Known for recycling her outfits, she was then pictured wearing the dress again at the Portrait Gala in 2019.
It was slightly reworked this time with sleeves that covered her shoulders, rather than the thinner straps.
The dress cost an eye-watering £7,304. This is one of the looks that added to the Princess’ reputation as one of the best-dressed royals.

“The dress was retailed at £4,000 and many fashion critics regard it as one of her best looks to date (and Pinterest users agree).”
Bethan Holt, the fashion journalist praised Kate’s dress sense and explained why everything she wears sells out in minutes.
She told Harper’s Bazaar.: “The sad truth of the world is, if she’s visiting a charity and she’s wearing a brand-new dress that’s really pretty, that picture will fly around the world, and lots more people will know about the charity.
“That’s just how the world works. She understands that and has grasped onto it.”
