Royal style watch: see this week's top regal fashionistas

Summer dresses, elegant evening gowns and chic trouser suits have all made an appearance on the royal scene this week on the likes of Lady Kitty Spencer, Crown Princess Victoria and Queen Letizia of Spain. Slowly the regal ladies are emerging from their holiday hideaways and preparing to return to royal duties – we even spotted the Duchess of Cambridge looking her usual stunning self through a car window at Balmoral.

We kick-off this week's style watch with a gorgeous monochrome dotty dress from Lady Kitty Spencer, the niece of the late Princess Diana. Kitty shared a picture of herself in the Ermanno Scervino pleated outfit on her Instagram page; the royal wore the dress for her arrival at the 76th Venice Film Festival.

Lady Kitty Spencer

We've two more killer looks for you from Lady Kitty this week. The model wowed in this strapless black tiered gown at the premiere of The Truth at Palazzo del Cinema on the Lido in Venice.

The royal also stepped out in this fun sixties-inspired trouser and top combo at the film festival. That sleeveless roll neck takes us right back to circa 1995.

Duchess Kate

The wife of Prince William dressed chicly for a trip to church in Balmoral with the Queen on Sunday. Her navy Herringbone trench coat is thought to be from Guinea London. The Duchess styled the jacket with a coordinating hat – a demure look for Kate next to the Monarch in vibrant pink.
