Apparently, it was asked that the attendees would not buy any new clothes and re-wear what they already have or rent – and the Princess of Wales led the way! She was accompanied by Prince William, who also wore one of his older navy suits that he has been seen wearing on many royal engagements. Princess Catherine wore a green floor length stretch crepe knit gown, with an 'exaggerated neckline'.
HURR has described the dress as having a ‘body-conscious fit’ and also had a concealed belt at the waist to accentuate her figure. The dress also featured a knee-high slit. The attire costs approximately $430 (£350) to buy off the shelf. Her powerful outfit was only made better with the addition of an emerald choker.
The choker that The Princess of Wales is wearing belonged to Princess Diana and was a wedding present from Queen Elizabeth.

The choker became iconic when Princess Diana wore it for many occasions– once, she even used it as a headband! Her brunette locks were parted to side and curled and let loose. Coming back to the event, Princess Catherine's makeup was also quite a bold turn from her usual style. For the evening, she chose a bold smoky eye look, with a natural lip color.
With the event itself being a celebration of the best climate change activists in the world, the whole evening had been worked to ensure the theme was well kept. Daily Mail reported it was advised that the guests be conscious of their clothing choices and were requested to opt for clothes that have already been used or were even purchased second hand.
The event also saw the use of a pre-used green carpet and burlap decor. In addition, it was noticed that they preferred the food being vegan or vegetarian. Everything was planned to the last detail, with the travel emissions of the attendees being calculated and balanced. It was ensured that all transmission within Boston for the event be done with electric vehicles.
