Princess Beatrice made florals her summer staple. But it seems that as we head into the cooler months of autumn, Prince William's cousin, 36, is putting polka dots on her sartorial radar.
Prince Andrew's eldest daughter was spotted at an event in London - the BGC Group Charity Day on behalf of Cantor Fitzgerald Relief Fund which raises millions for causes in memory of BGC's colleagues lost on 9/11. The BCG Group is a "leading global brokerage and financial technology company servicing the financial markets."

Royals in polka dots

The ankle-skimming dress featured puff sleeves and large bows adorning the bodice. She teamed the crepe-silk dress with black suede pumps and a Philip Treacy hat.
