On Monday evening the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge hosted a reception at Buckingham Palace to mark the UK-Africa Investment Summit.
The event, which was held on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen, celebrated the strength of the relationship between the UK and Africa.
For the occasion, Kate stunned in a $790 CAD sequined cherry red evening gown and coordinating crimson accessories.
The glitzy gown was by British brand, Needle and Thread, who are known for exquisitely embellished evening wear at mid-range prices - dresses retailing between $400 and $900 CAD.

Kate’s Aurora Gown, which featured long sleeves, a flattering A-line silhouette and frill lace detail is available to purchase for $790 CAD — but hurry, the cherry colour is currently only available in size 4 and 6 U.K. sizes.
The design also comes in four other colours: dusk blue, blossom, silver and black. However, the dress is currently only in stock in red, black and silver — and likely not for long.
The glamorous sequinned tulle dress also comes in a shorter mini dress style, which is a more affordable option at $650 CAD.
Kate kept her look tonal, opting to accessorize with red suede Gianvito Rossi pumps, which are available to buy for $950 CAD, plus a red clutch bag and earrings.
The event was also attended by numerous other royal family members, including Prince Edward, Sophie Countess of Wessex and Princess Anne.
Sophie, Countess of Wessex, who celebrated her 55th birthday on Monday also wore a statement red dress, choosing to re-wear a scalloped detailed Alaïa design that she has worn numerous times before.
The occasion was not attended by Prince Harry, who earlier in the day had attended the UK-Africa Investment Summit in Greenwich along with Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
