Victorious in Velvet

Kate Middleton glowed at the Sun Military Awards on her husband's arm in a strapless black velvet gown. Once again, the Duchess of Cambridge was the belle of the ball as she wowed in Alexander McQueen.

Her dress had a ruffle trim along the sweetheart neckline, a boned bodice, and it beautifully fanned out slightly at the bottom.

She paired her dress with a black suede clutch and black suede platform Jimmy Choos.

To make her look even more irresistible she added some sparkle with a diamond and ruby necklace as well as a matching bracelet and earrings, all of which were wedding presents. Jealous?
