The long sleeves with a button detail, knee length hem and angular neckline of the frock brought to mind a 1960s style gown.
The Princess added a pair of pale pink shoes to the ensemble, with a towering stiletto heel.
For accessories, she had on a floral brooch in a gold metal, as well as a number of bracelets and a gold chain necklace.

Mary - born Mary Elizabeth Donaldson - is one of the most respected women on the international scene.
Mary famously met her husband Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark by chance at Sydney pub the Slip Inn during the 2000 Olympics.
After their encounter, Fred - who was in Australia to support Denmark's Olympic sailing team - asked Mary for her phone number and a romance blossomed.

'The first time we met we shook hands. I didn't know he was the prince of Denmark. Half an hour later someone came up to me and said, "Do you know who these people are"?' Mary revealed in an interview about meeting the heir to the Danish throne.
They maintained a long-distance relationship for a year, with Frederik making secret trips Down Under before Mary moved to Denmark to study Danish language at Copenhagen's Studieskolen in 2001.
In early 2003, Frederik's mother Queen Margrethe publicly acknowledged the relationship and the couple announced their engagement at Amalienborg Castle later that year on October 8.
