Kate Middleton’s ‘Top Gun’ premiere gown sparks online searches

Kate Middleton arrived at the Top Gun: Maverick premiere in a gorgeous gown appropriate for a Hollywood superstar, and her outfit of the day sent online search engines ablaze, according to People magazine.

The Duchess of Cambridge and her husband, Prince William, attended the Top Gun premiere in London earlier this week, where Kate wore a black-and-white Roland Mouret dress with a Bardot neckline.

Her hair was sleek and tucked behind her ears, and she accessorised with Prada shoes and an Alexander McQueen handbag.

Needless to say, the entire look was a major hit, not just with royal fans but also fashion watchdogs, with People magazine reporting that within 24 hours of the premiere, searches for the term ‘Bardot dress’ shot up by 263 percent!

Online demand for ‘black-and-white dresses’ also reportedly went up in the hours after Kate walked the red carpet.

The ‘Bardot’ neckline, which is an off-the-shoulder style, was made popular by the French actress Brigitte Bardot.
