Move over Barbie, the Princess of Wales just entered the wax game—and she’s bringing sparkle, sass, and serious royal energy.
Kate Middleton’s brand-new wax figure was unveiled at Madame Tussauds London today, and honestly? It might outshine the real thing. Clad in a showstopping dusky pink Jenny Packham gown—the kind of glittery number that screams “I’ve arrived”—this wax Kate is pure elegance with a touch of disco.
Packham, a longtime favorite of the Princess, isn’t new to the royal closet. She’s dressed Kate for everything from James Bond premieres to royal galas. So it’s no surprise her design made the wax cut.
And let’s talk accessories. The figure is decked out in a pair of silver Gianvito Rossi–inspired pumps, the Lover’s Knot Tiara (yes, that one—Diana’s favorite), and some serious bling with a replica of the Royal Family Order of Queen Elizabeth II and those dazzling Greville Diamond Chandelier earrings.
Oh, and of course, the Royal Victorian Order sash. Because what’s a wax figure without a little royal regalia?
The new figure now stands in the museum’s Royal Palace section, right next to an updated Prince William, who’s looking sharp in a classic tux by Ede & Ravenscroft—complete with medals, sash, and all the ceremonial fixings. It’s like the Met Gala, but make it Buckingham.
According to People, Madame Tussauds updated the figures to reflect Kate and William’s current senior royal roles—and, let’s be honest, to give fans something new to selfie with.
This isn’t Kate’s first wax outing, but it might be the most glam. Between the tiara and the glitz, it feels like the Princess of Wales walked straight out of a Netflix drama and into a glass case.
If you’re in London and craving a little sparkle, this one’s worth the visit. Just don’t try to borrow the tiara.
