The star studded event benefited charities supporting serving and former members of the three intelligence agencies and charities supporting the special forces.
The royals meet actors Daniel Craig, Rami Malek, Léa Seydoux and Lashana Lynch, screenwriters including Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and “No Time To Die” performers Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell ahead of the screening.
The Duchess dazzled in a gold gown created by Jenny Packham.
The tulle gown is intricately embellished with tonal gold crystals, sequins and beads. The front has a plunging v-neckline, and the back features a long, floaty cape extending from the shoulders.
The custom design appears to take inspiration from Packham's 'Margot' (£2,800) and 'Elizabeth' (£3,640) gowns. The 'Margot' is available at Harrods and Farfetch, while the 'Elizabeth' is available at Net-A-Porter.
UPDATE: To celebrate the forthcoming 60th anniversary of James Bond, Jenny Packham has collaborated with EON Productions on an exclusive capsule collection of evening wear gowns. The 'Goldfinger' gown worn by Kate is one of eight designs to pay homage to the series’ legacy of powerful female characters.
Bellow is a gallery of the complete 007 capsule collection which you can also view on the Jenny Packham website.
Kate also debuted a pair of gold heels. @GabiK_blogoKate quickly identified them as the Aquazzura 'Fenix' 105mm pumps ($750).
The Duchess complemented the look with her gold statement earrings from O’nitaa, first worn for a reception at the Pakistan National Monument in 2019.
They are a bespoke design featuring uncut crystal stones set in gold-plated metal, and pearl drops.
She also wore her emerald-cut citrine ring.
