Prince Andrew's former wife wore the 'Sarita’ cutout crepe gown from the designer Safiyaa. Royal fans may notice similarities between Sarah's stunning emerald green gown and one worn by Princess Kate to the 2023 Royal Variety Show performance.

She accessorised the striking ensemble with items she had previously worn: a J.Crew crystal and pearl earrings, a Jenny Packham Casa lamé clutch and Emmy London Rebecca suede pumps. The Princess is well-known for recycling outfits and accessories.
Like Kate, Sarah opted to wear her hair down in a natural, wavy style. The 64-year-old wore her red hair in a side parting and accessorised the look with dangling pearl earrings and two simple silver bracelets.
Writing on Instagram, she said: "As a long-time ambassador to @tpw_foundation, I am so excited and honoured to be here today in Gothenburg to present The Perfect World Foundation Award.

Thank you Sir David Attenborough, Dr. Jane Goodall, and HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco, Kristin Davis and many more."
She accompanied the words with throwback photos of her attendance at the gala over the years.
