Duchess Catherine and Prince William attended a wedding in Somerset, England over the weekend and Kate proved that she is quite the resourceful royal as she re-wore one of her favourite dresses.
Catherine was previously spotted wearing the same floral dress by her favourite British fashion designer Jenny Packham when she attended a Polo match in Santa Barbara to watch William play, when they were on their royal tour of USA and Canada in 2011.
She dressed the look up for the wedding this time – teaming the dress with a fascinator rather than the LK Bennett open toe heels and Natalie clutch that she wore with it in 2011.
It’s not the first time Kate has proved her thriftiness and recycled the same outfit – she was spotted attending the tennis at Wimbledon last month wearing the same white lace Zimmermann dress that she was spotted in while in Sydney earlier this year on the royal tour.

British designer Jenny Packham is a favourite of the Duchess and she wore a special Kiwi-themed dress by the designer when in New Zealand on the royal tour earlier this year.
The dress was a nod to the New Zealand national emblem with a lavishly embellished silver fern on an all-black background.

Kate’s choice of the Zimmermann dress for the Aussie leg of the royal tour was a nod to local Australian designers, with Naomi Watts having also worn the design previously for an ad campaign. The design sold out almost instantly online too.
The Duchess was also seen in another stunning Jenny Packham gown at the National Portrait Gallery’s fundraising gala earlier this year.
This stunning sparking number is another one by the Duchess’ favourite designer, Jenny Packham.
Catherine wore the silver sparkly gown to her first red carpet event since the birth of her first child, Prince George at a gala dinner for the Tusk foundation in London late last year.
