Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer are no strangers to a formal dress code, but on 22 November they truly outdid themselves sartorially. The twin nieces of Princess Diana, 33, made a dazzling appearance at the Fashion Trust Arabia 2025 award ceremony at the National Museum of Qatar in Doha – and looked amazing.
Joining an array of stars, including actresses Lindsay Lohan, Selma Blair, and Emma Roberts, as well as model Giselle Bundchen, the cousins of Prince William made an appearance at the annual event which gathers famous faces from across the globe to celebrate emerging names in fashion. Designers were awarded for their efforts in numerous categories, including Eveningwear, Ready-to-Wear, and Accessories, following a star-studded red carpet.
Amelia and Eliza don Zuhair Murad gowns

The dress, by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad, also featured beaded embroidery and a corseted bodice to create a structured top that offset the beautiful, billowing skirt. It was paired with a sparkly clutch in the same light purple hue, as well as gorgeous Rene Caovilla heels, which were adorned with rhinestones and featured a gladiator-style wrap which climbed up the leg.

She too paired the gown with an Aspinal of London clutch, and both ladies finished off their looks with the most incredible dripping diamond necklaces by Chopard, a luxury Swiss jewellery maker.

A glitzy wardrobe
It isn’t the only glitzy evening event the Spencers have attended this season. On 18 October, they stole the show at the inaugural British Museum Ball, an event chaired by arts patron and businesswoman Isha Ambani, which raised over £2.5 million to support the museum’s international partnerships.

An expert’s verdict
Having reported on the Spencer girls’ fashion and beauty moments for over two years as HELLO!‘s Lifestyle Writer, I believe their British Museum Ball outfits are among their best. They also caught the eye of Oriona Robb, a fashion stylist with over 20 years of experience.

In contrast, Lady Eliza’s blush sequined gown embodies sleek sophistication; its clean lines, high neckline, and subtle sparkle highlight her natural elegance. Together, the two looks perfectly balance opulence and simplicity, one bold and theatrical, the other refined and timeless.”
