Princess Catharina-Amalia looked positively regal at a recent gala.

Attending an official event at Palace Noordeinde in The Hague on Wednesday, the 20-year-old princess made a grand entrance in a royal blue gown by Alex Perry. The long-sleeved satin dress was tight-fitting, with a pretty, square neckline, and Amalia wore it with a long matching shawl, which she draped in such a way that it gave the illusion of a mermaid-style skirt.

Very relatably, Amalia finished the look with shoes pinched from her mom Queen Máxima, as reported by Hello!. She wore Gianvito Rossi's 105 Navy Velvet Pumps in taking a leaf from Kate Middleton's style book.

Amalia wore her blonde hair in an elegant low bun, and accessorized with a diamond choker and drop earrings.

Princess Amalia proved her status as one of the best dressed royals in the world just this month, when she attended the official opening of the parliamentary year in a winter green gown by Safiyaa.

The high-necked, floor-length-dress featured a sweet cutout, and the sleeves opened up into two small trains of sorts. And fun fact? Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, once wore the exact same gown, as reported by the Daily Mail.
