The Duchess of Cambridge wore a glittering red dress for a glamorous reception at Buckingham Palace on Monday evening (20 January).

And it turns out Kate's stunning outfit hails from high street brand Needle & Thread, which you can pick up at the likes of ASOS and Selfridges.

The Duchess was joined by Prince William for the event, held for Heads of State and Government, following the UK-Africa Investment Summit in London.

Although – no surprises here – but the 'Kate effect' already seems to have taken hold, as the dress has now sold out on the Needle & Thread website in almost every size. The Aurora Gown couldn't be more flattering, thanks to its embellished long sleeves, nipped-in waist and A-line skirt, so we're hardly surprised.

Kate completed her look with co-ordinating red heels, and wore her dark hair down in her signature bouncy blow-dry.
