Kate Middleton ushered in royal holiday evening attire tonight in London at the 2021 Royal Variety Performance that she attended with Prince William at Royal Albert Hall. The Duchess opted for a glittering emerald column gown by Jenny Packham for the occasion. It appears to be the same gown she wore during her October 2019 Pakistan royal tour with William.
Tonight, Kate wore her hair down in curls. William wore a velvet suit alongside her with a black bow tie, really letting her green dress take the sartorial spotlight for the evening:

Kate’s appearance tonight comes after the Duchess appeared last week on her Instagram for Remembrance Day. She shared a video of herself having a discussion with a veteran and 10-year-old in honor of the holiday and to pay tribute to the service and history of those who have fought.
“To mark Remembrance and 100 years of the Royal British Legion, The Duchess met 98-year-old veteran, Colonel Blum, and 10-year-old Cub Scout, Emily, to discuss the vital importance of Remembrance across generations,” the Duchess’s team captioned the Instagram featuring her talking with them.

Kate reflected on the meeting in her own caption she wrote that was shared in a second post. “It was a true honor to spend time with Colonel Blum and be able to thank him for the sacrifices he made for our country,” she said. “Speaking to him highlighted again to me why Remembrance is so important, and why we must pay our gratitude to those who fought and died so we could live in peace today. We must keep their stories alive for generations to come. And many congratulations to Emily for receiving her Centenary Remembrance Badge! C.”
