The Princess of Wales

Princess Kate re-wore her electric blue Catherine Walker coat dress

The Princess of Wales looked poised and elegant as she brought the sunshine on Easter Sunday, cutting an elegant figure in a sapphire-hued coat dress to attend the Easter Mattins Service at St. George's Chapel in Windsor.

Princess Kate, 41, was joined by her husband Prince William, 40, and their three children Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and little Prince Louis, four. The royal looked radiant as ever in her figure-skimming 'Mayfair' number, dressing for the spring sunshine in one of her favourite designers, Catherine Walker.

The royal mother-of-three styled her chocolate brown tresses in elegant tumbling curls beneath an electric blue pillbox hat from Lock & Co., elevating her natural beauty with a rosy blush, bronze eye shadow and a soft pink lip.

She looked elegant in a pastel pink crepe dress by Emilia Wickstead previously worn by Duchess Sophie. The romantic garment featured an elegant crew neckline, a retro bell skirt and black lace embellishing the sleeves.

The wife of Mike Tindall, who was glowing beside her two daughters Mia and Lena, stepped out in the bold and beautiful ensemble to unite with her royal family for the first Easter service of King Charles' reign.

Complete with elegant bishop's sleeves, a playful thigh-slit and glamorous button-down detailing across the bodice, Zara's funky fuchsia moment, which also happened to be custom-made, highlighted her glossy platinum blonde hair and flawless complexion.

Princess Anne

Princess Charlene wowed in a sequined gown

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 Jordanian royal nailed spring pastels in a Zimmerman two piece

Queen Rania of Jordan's royal visit to Japan has brought with it plenty of stylish fashion moments, unsurprisingl The monarch looked beautiful in a pastel outfit from Australian designer Zimmermann during her meeting with Yuko Kishida, wife of the Prime Minister of Japan, on Tuesday – but she did make one alteration to her outfit.

Rania chose the elegant 'High Tide Flower Skirt', £995, and 'High Tide Flower Body Shirt', £650, for the important engagement – but made the decision to remove the ultra-feminine floral details from the neckline of the top, instead keeping it clean and simple.

It is also thought that the royal added another layer beneath her top, in order to avoid the sheer look as seen on the original design. The Jordanian Queen is well-known and admired for her fashion-forward approach to modest dressing, of course.

The wife of King Abdullah II completed her look with a Dior bag and ruby red heels

During her trip, the 52-year-old also attended an exhibition at The National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo, called the '70th Anniversary Exhibition: Secrets of Important Cultural Properties' at the National Museum of Modern Art in Kitanomaru Park.

Part of her royal tour, the cultural trip made for an ideal dress-up opportunity, which Queen Rania took full advantage of. The ever-radiant royal looked divine in a black pantsuit from Alexandre Vaultier's Autumn/Winter 2022 couture collection. Featuring a sculptural fit, a waist-cinching silhouette, classic tailoring, short sleeves and classic button-detailing, the magnificent set looked mesmerising when paired with some cherry red Gianvito Pumps in a pristine satin.
