Those watching Wimbledon last weekend will have been paying close attention to the sartorial choices of not only the Princess of Wales, who was seen for the second time this year amid her preventative chemotherapy for cancer, but the royal's stylish sister, Pippa.
But flashback to 2011, Pippa Middleton, 40, was spotted for a glitzy evening in London, just months after she turned heads as her sister's bridesmaid at the royal wedding to Prince William.

The columnist was seen arriving at the Boodles Boxing Ball at Park Plaza Westminster Bridge on 1 October. A 28-year-old Pippa looked stunning in a slinky red gown with a deep V-neckline and a cinched waist which was adorned with a corsage detail.
The figure-skimming number was teamed with a sparkly snakeskin clutch to match her metallic snakeskin heels and she wore minimal jewellery, bar a pair of floral drop earrings.

Pippa's makeup look had her looking naturally radiant with a touch of smokey eyeshadow to take the look to nighttime and a swipe of rosy lip gloss for an extra touch of glamour.
