Princess Eugenie's polka dot dress

Kicking off our round-up is Princess Eugenie's polka dot dress which she wore back in 2006 to attend the Cipriani and Deutsche Bank Concert. The sweet garment featured a dusty rose backdrop boasting a white dotted design, a noughties-inspired bow-clad bandeau, a cascade of ruffles and a satin finish.

Princess Eugenie's sequin bolero

Nothing quite emulates the zeitgeist of the 2010s like a bolero. The royal donned an iridescent silver version layered over a strapless chiffon crimson dress as she partied the night away while celebrating Freddie Mercury's 65th birthday, in aid of The Mercury Phoenix Trust at The Savoy Hotel in 2011.

Princess Eugenie's ethereal high-neck number

One of her most popular looks to date, Princess Eugenie looked dreamy at the Animal Ball Art Show Private Viewing in 2019. The royal wore an ethereal high-neck dress boasting a sleeveless design, a belted waistline and an ombre peach and turquoise colour palette complete with a pearlescent floral print.

Princess Eugenie's sixties-inspired mini dress

Princess Eugenie brought the swinging sixties to the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at St George's Chapel in May 2018. She looked divine in a pale blue boucle shift dress featuring a structured fit and short sleeves, which she paired with some sleek heels and a headpiece.

Princess Eugenie's bold floral frock

The mother-of-one rocked a bold botanical print to attend The Serpentine Galleries Summer Party at The Serpentine Gallery in 2017. The striking piece features a dazzling colour scheme boasting primary tones, a structured fit and a mini silhouette.

Princess Eugenie's white shift dress

Posing up a storm for the cameras in another sixties-style shift, the royal attended the annual Serpentine Galley Summer Party at The Serpentine Gallery three years earlier in the white number.

Princess Eugenie's one-shoulder piece

Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank delighted royal fans as they attended the very same event together in 2018. Opting for a striking one-shoulder dress-top featuring violet and electric blue blooms set against an ebony backdrop and teamed with some slim-fitting trousers, Princess Eugenie looked radiant on the red carpet.

Princess Eugenie's garden party frock

Back in 2019, the 33-year-old served up garden party glamour in an emerald green garment featuring mustard-toned florals, long sleeves and wispy layers of semi-sheer fabric. She wore the delicate number during a visit to Westminster Abbey as part of a day on combating modern slavery.

Princess Eugenie's gold sequin look

A sequined mini dress was the chosen look for this throwback family affair. Eugenie joined big sister Princess Beatrice and mother Sarah Ferguson to see The Young Victoria at Pacific Theatre at The Grove in Los Angeles. The royal wowed crowds in the sparkle-clad piecer featuring a wide, scoop neck and a golden glint.

Princess Eugenie's favourite floral ensemble

Last but not least is Princess Eugenie's go-to silhouette – the floral mini dress with long sleeves. The Princess attended Louis Vuitton's Celebration of GingerNutz in Vogue's December Issue in 2017, looking heavenly in the refined number.
