Either way, the parallel between mother and daughter was incredibly clear.

Paying homage to both her mom and Diana was a sweet move on Catherine’s part.

Commenting on the Goat Fashion ensemble directly, Carole quipped, “Though not the identical one.”

Catherine’s dress was from designer Alexander McQueen who was behind her wedding dress and cost about $5,000.

Though the prices were significantly different, both ladies looked lovely in their chosen looks.
