She's officially back and better than ever. Princess Charlene of Monaco AKA style extraordinaire just revamped her eveningwear wardrobe, adding the most exquisite piece to her collection. On Wednesday, the former Olympian joined her husband Prince Albert to attend a gala celebrating the 160th anniversary of the Monegasque Consulate of Monaco. As for her latest look, we are totally hooked.
The 45-year-old made an entrance in a glistening Akris gown coined the 'Tulle & Sequin Long Sleeve A-Line Gown.' Featuring a divine mesh of materials, long sleeves, an iridescent ebony sequined finish and an operatic cut, the luxurious garment proved a hit among fans. Just look at the dress' £6k price tag for an indication of quite how lavish the piece is…
The royal wore her recently dyed pixie cut swept up in a slicked-back style, showing her salt-and-pepper colouring for all to see. She opted for a natural beauty blend, featuring a porcelain complexion and a nude lip, allowing her glimmering gown to take centre stage.
