Princess Kate's Best Red-Carpet Moments Through the Years
Catherine, Princess of Wales, has singlehandedly defined modern royal style with her casual off-duty looks, sophisticated ensembles for royal events, and red-carpet appearances through the years.
Over the last decade, the royal has walked several red carpets next to husband Prince William at star-studded celebrations, including at movie premieres, award ceremonies, and fundraising events with the Royal Foundation. On these occasions, the princess has debuted ensembles that both stay true to her iconic regal style and show off her Hollywood-approved sartorial range.
