This is one dress that’s definitely royally approved.

Kate Middleton attended the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance Saturday night in a black Self-Portrait outfit that eagle-eyed royal fans remembered as not only a darker version of a white dress the princess has already worn — but the same style also sported by Princess Beatrice in recent months.

The black frock features a jacket with peak lapels and a belted waist, finishing off with a pleated chiffon skirt with lace trim at the bottom.

Middleton accessorized her look with a vibrant cluster of poppies pinned to her lapel and meaningful jewels that belonged to Queen Elizabeth, choosing the same Bahrain Pearl Earrings and pearl choker with a diamond clasp that she sported to the late monarch’s funeral and to Prince Philip’s funeral.

In happier times, the Princess of Wales wore a white version of the dress ($420) to the Platinum Party at the Palace to celebrate Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee as well as at a 2021 reception for her Hold Still photography project.

Meanwhile, Princess Beatrice, 34, sported the exact blazer-style dress to hold a vigil at Queen Elizabeth’s coffin on Sept. 17, pairing the piece with a padded headband trimmed with a bow.

Beatrice also owns both the black and white versions of the Self-Portrait style as well, having worn the lighter-colored blazer dress in a photo her sister, Princess Eugenie, posted for Beatrice’s birthday this summer.

And it appears the style is a royal knockout, with a third member of their family having worn the same style; royal cousin Flora Vesterberg, 27, — whose grandmother, Princess Alexandra, is one of Queen Elizabeth’s first cousins — chose it for Queen Elizabeth’s funeral on Sept. 19, just two days after Beatrice.

Similarly, she accessorized with a black headpiece, wearing a pillbox-style hat with a small veil.

It comes as no surprise that the dress was worn by multiple members of the royal family, with Self-Portrait remaining a firm favorite of Middleton and Beatrice, as well as Meghan Markle and Princess Eugenie.
