The socialite and model, who is Earl Spencer’s daughter and, perhaps more famously, Princess Diana’s niece, celebrated the opening of the new Brunello Cucinelli boutique in the magnificent setting of Venice’s historic Palazzo della Borsa e della Camera di Commercio. Wearing the dreamiest three-piece suit, Lady Kitty Spencer was joined by her younger twin sisters Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer, who all exuded summer elegance in tonal head-to-toe Brunello Cucinelli looks.
Lady Kitty demonstrated how an all-cream three-piece in a lightweight linen blend can be seasonally on point, and well worthy of a spot in your summer wardrobe. Speeding through the canals of Venice, the new mum - who surprised fans over Mother’s Day with the news that she and her husband, businessman tycoon Michael Lewis, had welcomed a baby girl - radiated sophistication as she posed on the back of a speedboat with friends.
