    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.

    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.

    Princess Amalia of The Netherlands arrives by the Glass Coach at the Koninklijke Schouwburg at Prinsjesdag on September 17, 2024 in The Hague, Netherlands. Prinsjesdag is the annual opening of the parliamentary year.

    On that occasion, Amalia paired her dress with metallic heeled sandals by Stuart Weitzman, and wore her hair down in flowing waves, with a gold headband and matching earrings.
