Kate Middleton and Prince William Stole the Show at the ‘No Time to Die’ Movie Premiere

Last evening, members of the Royal Family made an appearance at the COVID-delayed premiere of No Time to Die in London. Kate Middleton and Prince William—the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge—joined Prince Charles and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, as guests of honour. Walking the red carpet in a glittery gold Jenny Packham gown, Kate Middleton made heads turn. 

The beaded gown with a dramatic cape reportedly paid tribute to Princess Diana’s mesmerising look from the 1985 premiere of Bond’s A View To Kill. Kate accessorised her glam look with a pair of elegant earrings from London-based company O'Nitaa, and nude-toned heels by Aquazzura. She opted for a 'no-makeup' makeup look and a flattering hair updo. In 1985, late Princess Diana was spotted in a silver pleated gown that she paired with a matching clutch and heels. 

Prince William accompanied gold-Goddess Kate in a James Bond-esque tux and black cashmere slippers by Arthur Sleep. Reportedly, James Bond actor Daniel Craig said to the Duchess, "You look jolly lovely!" (Ahem, we second that, Daniel). Camilla, The Duchess of Cornwall, wore a light blue dress with a delicate beaded overlay, while Prince Charles was also seen in a tux.

The opening of the movie had been pushed due to the global coronavirus pandemic. At the event, last night, several healthcare workers and members of the armed forces were invited as a token of appreciation for their "extraordinary contribution to the nation's response to the COVID pandemic," the palace said. The evening is benefiting charities supporting past and present members of MI5, MI6, GCHQ, and U.K. special forces. 

Apart from the Royal family, many film fraternity members were spotted at the premiere as well. Rami Malek, Léa Seydoux, Lashana Lynch, Ana de Armas, singers Billie Eilish and Finneas O'Connell, and screenwriters Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, to name a few.
