The Princess of Wales  looked elegant in a £2,000 floral Erdem jacket with a matching £1,000 skirt as she joined Prince William at the high-profile event on Monday afternoon. 

The mother-of-three chose a glittering pair of two-tiered flower-shaped earrings, which were previously owned by Princess Diana.
