The duchess’ dress featured bow detailing, and she accessorised with a pair of sapphire and diamond fringe earrings that purportedly belong in her grandmother-in-law Queen Elizabeth’s collection. The earrings were once in possession of the Queen’s mother — late Queen Mother, who died in 2002 at the age of 101.
