Polka dots have dominated the sartorial scene recently, and Princess Eugenie was spotted in one by Rixo for a second time this summer as she partied in Seoul with DJ and producer Peggy Gou. The unlikely pair were caught on camera by Peggy's friend Mini Han, as she taught Eugenie the dance moves to (It Goes Like) Nanana.
- Princess Eugenie was spotted in Rixo's Evie Silk Dress as she partied in Seoul with Peggy Gou
- The royal previously wore the midi dress for a very different kind of party at Buckingham Palace
- Polka dots have been one of the biggest trends of the season and are also loved by Princess Kate
The 35-year-old royal looked chic in Rixo's Evie dress, which is one of the British label's most popular pieces and the same style she wore to a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace back in May, proving it's nothing if not versatile. Made from a beautiful silk crepe de chine fabric, it features a flattering figure-skimming silhouette, with fluttery georgette ruffles.
The navy midi dress is adorned in a white polka dot print, and also comes with cap sleeves, waist-cinching ties and a bra-friendly V-neckline. It's unlined for comfort and has the brand's signature bias cut, nipping in at the waist and falling to a floaty skirt.
Eugenie usually wears designer pieces but has chosen the £345/$540 midi on multiple occasions. Available in UK sizes 6-26 and two different lengths, it also comes in several different prints, from animal to a champagne jacquard.
The bestselling style has glowing reviews from customers, with one writing: "Fabulous dress. So comfortable and flattering with a lovely drape. I have three Rixo Evie dresses now in different colours and patterns!"
While another said: "An amazing dress - fits perfectly and the bias cut with the silk material is so luxurious. I sized up one size compared to my usual."
And one added: "There is no more perfect dress than this. Flattering, exquisite, feminine and so comfortable to wear! I love love it!"
Princess Eugenie was the height of sophistication at Buckingham Palace, accessorising with Jimmy Choo's Romy 85 navy suede pumps and carrying Fendi's Peekaboo Iseeu petite leather bag. She completed the look with the Marina hat by Emmy London and her £19K Garrard lotus flower sapphire and diamond drop earrings. She was joined by her cousin Zara Tindall, who complemented her perfectly in a paisley Anna Mason midi dress.
If you want to make the look more playful, I also love how Rixo have styled the midi with vintage accessories, from gold heeled sandals to a printed neck scarf.
Want Eugenie's look for less? Head to Abercrombie, where you'll find this similar polka dot midi in the sale for just £49.99.
Or go for Boden's Christabel Cotton Midi Dress, which has just dropped in the new collection for £129/$199. Featuring a fit-and-flare silhouette and side pockets, the floaty style is selling fast.
