Lady Louise Windsor proved she was just like any other teenager after raiding her mother’s wardrobe for an outfit to wear this evening.
The 19-year-old daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh opted for a Mary Katrantzou lace cocktail dress as she arrived at the private members’ club Oswald’s in Mayfair for a royal gettogether on the eve of the King’s coronation.
Her mother Sophie, 58, wore the frock in 2015 when attending an award ceremony in London – and proving it’s still a stylish number, Lady Louise decided to wear it tonight.
The Duchess, meanwhile, sported a £1,350 vibrant floral midi dress from Erdem, which she teamed with a cream coat and matching strappy heels.
Lady Louise, who often borrows from her mother’s wardrobe, and Sophie were joined at the occasion by other British Royal Family members – including Prince Edward, 59, James, Earl of Wessex, 15, and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.

Oswald’s is the most exclusive of London’s private members’ clubs, with the Queen Consort and Boris Johnson and his wife Carrie among those who frequent the venue.
Zara Tindall, 41, who arrived alongside her husband Mike Tindall, 44, opted for a striking navy blazer and trouser combo, paired with a light blue shirt.
Her cousin, Princess Eugenie, 33, who is expecting her second child with husband Jack Brooksbank, who was also in attendance at the family occasion, seemingly took inspiration from Zara and donned an Asceno Velvet Athens Robe, costing £575.
They were joined alongside Princess Beatrice, 34, dressed in Louis Vuitton’s £2,900 chain print asymmetrical long-sleeved frock, as well as other Royal Family members – including Prince Andrew and Princess Anne.
Tomorrow, they will join King Charles, Queen Camilla and the Prince and Princess of Wales at the coronation in Westminster Abbey. The King, Kate and William attended a Buckingham Palace reception this evening with foreign royals and world leaders.
Joined by her husband, Eugenie, who already shares two-year-old August with Jack, paired her glamorous red robe with black heels and a matching bag.
