Kate Middleton channels classic Princess of Wales in Diana's tiara: See

Kate Middleton is the worthy successor.

The new Princess of Wales channeled her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, during the first official state dinner at Buckingham Palace in London, England.

The senior royals, including King Charles III, Queen Consort Camilla, Prince William, Princess Anne, and others, were in attendance to honor the South African president Cyril Ramaphosa.

For the event, Kate accessorized her elegant white caped gown which was embellished with crystals on its shoulders, with pearl earrings and Diana’s favorite tiara – the Cambridge Lover’s Knot.

Despite the Princess having worn the accessory almost 10 times since marrying William, this marks the first time she did so as the Princess of Wales – a title previously owned by Diana.

She also sported a blue sash to mark her position as a Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order, the highest ranking of chivalry personally awarded by the late Queen Elizabeth II for being in her service.
