The Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton) first wore the teal-coloured Aspen Gown by Jenny Packham in 2012. Her Royal Highness attended a gala dinner in London ahead of the London Olympic Games.
In 2018, the Duchess wore the gown again. This time, to the Tusk Trust Conservation Awards. The spectacular dress is a real fan favourite.
About Kate’s Jenny Packham Aspen Gown
The Aspen dress is made from silk and Chantilly lace. It features an ornate lace back, lace cap sleeves, a lace bodice and is embellished with crystals sewn onto a sash.
The original Aspen design is from Jenny Packham’s Spring/Summer 2012 Bridal collection and came in ivory. The designer produced the gown in teal specifically for Kate.
The bridal gown also had a short train. Kate’s dress had this removed.
The style combines an emerald lace bodice embellished with Swarovski crystals and a pleated skirt, ribbon waisted with a crystal and flower embellishment and matching bespoke clutch bag.
