The 25th in the James Bond series and Daniel Craig’s fifth and final outing as the fictional British MI6 agent, the spy movie was initially scheduled for release in November 2019 but was delayed due to the global outbreak of COVID-19.

Catherine completed her look with her go-to O’Nitaa earrings, a favorite accessory she’s worn on numerous formal occasions. She often turns to British designer Jenny Packham for her public appearances, drawn to the brand’s signature mix of elegance, comfort, and royal-worthy sparkle.

Kate Middleton favors Jenny Packham’s designs for their flattering silhouettes, flowing fabrics, and timeless embellishments—qualities that make them ideal for everything from red carpet events to post-maternity wear.
