Lavender Majesty – Kate Middleton BAFTA-Inspired Pleated Chiffon A-Line Gown
Lavender Majesty – 2011 BAFTA Gala Inspiration
Grace every red carpet with royal poise in this soft-lavender chiffon gown, lovingly modelled after the ethereal Jenny Packham dress worn by the Princess of Wales at the 2011 BAFTA reception in Los Angeles. Air-light pleats and a gently cinched waist capture modern elegance while echoing timeless, story-book romance.
- Scoop Neckline with Cap-Sleeve Effect – A modest rounded scoop frames the collarbone, complemented by airy shoulder drapes that mimic delicate cap sleeves.
- Hand-Pleated Bodice & Gathered Waistband – Fine micro-pleats cascade into a softly ruched waistband, sculpting a flattering silhouette and elongating the figure.
- Flowing A-Line Skirt – Multiple layers of whisper-light chiffon fall from the waist to the floor, creating graceful, breeze-catching movement with each step.
- Detachable Satin Belt – A wide, tonal sash defines the waist and adds a tailored finish; swap for metallic ribbon to match different accessories.
- Invisible Back Zip & Full Lining – Ensure a seamless fit and comfortable wear, from grand entrance to final toast.
Style with crystal drop earrings, a metallic box clutch, and loose romantic waves to mirror the princess’s understated glamour—or pair with a sleek chignon and pearl studs for classic black-tie refinement. Custom sizing and colour variations (powder blue, blush rose, champagne) are available—contact our atelier to craft your own moment of lavender majesty.

The below is just a guide. We recommend that whenever possible you get a qualified seamstress to measure your dress size. Always have someone else take the measurements—self-measuring is often inaccurate. Measure with undergarments similar to those you will wear with your dress; do not measure over other clothing.
For standard sizes, compare your measurements with the Size Chart on this product page. For products offering Custom Size, enter your own measurements in the product options and include cm or inches.
Bust
- This is not your bra size.
- Wear an unpadded bra; arms relaxed at your sides.
- Measure around the fullest part of your bust.
Waist
- Find your natural waist (smallest part).
- Usually about 1 in. above the belly button.
- Keep the tape slightly loose for comfort.
Hips
- Measure the widest part of the hips.
- Usually about 7 in. below the natural waist.
- Ensure the tape passes across both hipbones.
Height & Hollow to Floor
- Stand straight with feet together.
- Height: head top to floor (barefoot).
- Hollow to Floor: from the hollow at the base of the neck straight down to the floor; measure with your shoes on if you will wear heels.
