Kim Kardashian West and Kate Middleton Wore the Same Alexander Mcqueen Dress

Crazy but true: There is a shared link between the closets of the Duchess of Cambridge and Kim Kardashian West. Kate Middleton attended a London school's Christmas party yesterday looking as regal as ever in a long-sleeve red Alexander McQueen dress she's worn before. The bright holly-red was festive enough for the occasion, but still princess-appropriate with a knee-length hemline and wrist-touching sleeves (it's no coatdress, but close).

Now what if we told you that Kim's actually worn the same polished, prim dress? Your brain's doing crazy somersaults of confusion, we know. The reality star actually sported the style back in 2011, albeit a shortened, sleeveless version. Aside from the structural differences, Kim put her own styling spins on it too. Where the Duchess wore basic, mid-height black pumps, Kim wore snakeskin Louboutins. The royal wore no major jewelry, while KKW had a statement necklace flashing. The one thing they both did? Grabbed a small clutch in lieu of a larger day bag.
