Kate Middleton kicked off her birthday celebrations in style, strutting down the red carpet in a stunning full-length black lace dress.
The Duchess of Cambridge, who turned 30 on January 9, attended the UK premiere of Steven Spielberg’s Warhorse in London’s Leicester Square.
Kate turned heads in a dramatic black lace gown by Alice Temperley, one of her sister Pippa’s favourite designers.
Kate and Prince William celebrated her birthday with a low-key, private party with family members and close friends.
