The Princess of Wales is dressed in one of Kate’s most iconic recent looks, according to a brand-new waxwork that was unveiled at Madame Tussauds in London.

The Princess of Wales has had a glamorous new transformation – at a world-famous tourist attraction. A brand new waxwork figure of Kate has been unveiled at Madame Tussauds London.

The attraction has featured a figure of Kate since April 2012 – a year after she married Prince William. And today, Madame Tussauds has refreshed the waxwork of the princess and recreated one of her most memorable recent looks.

The figure is styled in a sparkly pink Jenny Packham gown, silver pumps in the style of the Gianvito Rossi ‘Rania 105’ shoes and also wears a replica of the Lover’s Knot Tiara – which was worn by the figure of Diana, Princess of Wales, at the Baker Street attraction in the 1980s.

The princess’s statue is further adorned by the Royal Victorian Order blue sash, the Royal Family Order of Elizabeth II and replica Greville Diamond Chandelier earrings. Madame Tussauds says the new figure has been styled in a homage to the outfit Kate wore to the annual Diplomatic Corps Reception in December 2023.

The image shows her husband, the Prince of Wales, the King, and the Queen standing next to each other. William’s waxwork has also been upgraded, with his figure getting new versions of his sash, star of the Order of the Garter, and army medals, and a new black Ede &amp, Ravenscroft tuxedo.

The unveiling of the new figure comes as Kate yesterday made a return to royal garden parties by attending her first one in two years. She surprised guests by joining husband William, at Buckingham Palace on Tuesday afternoon.

William was presenting the traditional outdoor gathering on behalf of his father, the King, in a top hat and morning suit. While receiving treatment for what William called a “brutal year,” the princess, who is in remission from cancer, skipped the 2024 garden party season.

Kate was attending a yellow Emilia Wickstead dress and hat by Philip Treacy, who was not in advance as is custom for garden parties.
