Thursday, 15th November 2018—William, Kate, Harry and Meghan attended a dinner for the Royal Foundation at Victoria House, Bloomsberry Square, London.
The Royal Foundation is a charity that supports the royals’ work. At the time it was named the Royal Foundation of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and The Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Driven by a desire to make a difference together, The Royal Foundation is the primary philanthropic and charitable vehicle for The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Our programmes revolve around main themes of work; conservation, early years, mental health, and emergency responders.

The annual dinner is usually a private affair and Kensington Palace do not release photographs. However, in 2018, singer Tom Walker shared pictures on his social media accounts.
Kate’s outfit:
The Duchess wore her red Preen Finella dress.
You may remember the piece from the 2016 Canada Tour? The Duchess first wore it on the third day of the tour, to a reconciliation ceremony with Canadian First Nations groups and then at a reception with political and civic leaders from across British Columbia. Kate wore it again in December 2016 for a private party.
The Finella dress features an asymmetric neckline, a draped bodice, a nipped-in waist and a box-pleated skirt. It’s made from stretch crepe fabric.
Kate owns it in black too:
The Duchess paired the red dress with her Jenny Packham Casa clutch bag. She owns this particular piece in both red and silver.
Laprendo.com previously sold a blue version of the Casa clutch for $1,010 SGP, roughly £1,300 GBP / $1,700 USD. They described the bag as follows:
[This] evening solid frame box clutch in blue features angular enamel and a crystal encrusted clasp with silk cotton lining, small inside pocket and a matching mirror.Laprendo.com
Finally, Kate wore a pair of new earrings (new to Kate fans anyway, she might have one them for a long time). They appear gold in colour, but it’s too difficult to make out any further detail from the photos.
