The Duchess of Cambridge has just inspired us for Christmas Day by wearing a very festive red dress to film the royals' upcoming TV special with Mary Berry.
In the one-hour show, set to air on 16 December, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge join Mary Berry in preparing a festive feast for volunteers at charities and other organisations working over the Christmas period.
Will and Kate announced the news on their official @KensingtonRoyal Instagram account on the weekend, sharing a few sneak peeks from the TV special, A Berry Royal Christmas.
The royals will highlight some of their favourire charities as they take Mary along with them to meet people whose lives have been changed for the better as a result of voluntary work.
In the behind-the-scenes snaps shared on Instagram, the royal duo pose with Mary Berry and Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, holding up some festive creations, while a second shot sees Will and Kate in matching navy aprons.
Kate's red printed designer dress by Alessandra Rich couldn't be more fitting for the occasion, and we are suddenly desperate to hunt down a similarly festive outfit for our own Christmas celebrations.
AVAILABLE HERE Alessandra Rich Polka-dot silk dress, £1,455
And, while the Duchess' designer dress is sadly out of our price range, there are plenty of chic alternatives around right now on the high street. We've even found a printed option by L.K. Bennett that boasts a similar-looking tie-neck detailing.
