There’s something almost cinematic about twins who understand the quiet power of arriving as a pair, especially when the dresses sparkle just enough to catch the light but not the loudness of the room. That was the energy Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza Spencer brought to the 2025 Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall, stepping onto the red carpet in a set of coordinated gowns that looked like they’d been pulled straight from a glamorous parallel universe where everything glitters softly and every detail feels intentional.
The sisters, Princess Diana’s 33-year-old nieces, chose Gaurav Gupta for their night out, leaning into the house’s signature shimmer. Lady Eliza wore a sleeveless white column dress with a refined mock neck, the entire surface scattered with embellishments that only got brighter the longer you looked. Her hair was swept into a sleek updo, the kind that lets a drop earring shoulder all the attention.
Lady Amelia went for a champagne strapless gown that felt like the warm version of her sister’s cool sparkle. The scalloped neckline and sheer detailing added just enough romance, and the gathered fabric at one side formed a delicate train that trailed behind her in a soft whisper. Oversized pearl earrings completed the look, a small reminder that luxury doesn’t always shout.
Both carried Aspinal clutches, because sisters who coordinate usually commit to the bit.
The night also honored Anok Yai as Model of the Year, a moment that felt genuinely emotional. In her acceptance message, she spoke of a journey that crossed continents and carried entire communities with it, and it added a grounding note to a night built on artistry and glamour.
For the Spencer twins, coordinated fashion has become something of a tradition. Last year’s Fashion Awards saw them arriving in matching black gowns and diamonds. Cannes 2025 brought another twin moment — strapless gowns with peplum detail, Amelia in white, Eliza in black, each one mirroring the other like a fashion yin and yang. Even their sister, Lady Kitty Spencer, joined the Cannes lineup in a sequinned purple Dolce & Gabbana gown that proved sparkle might actually be hereditary.
And beyond the red carpets and couture moments, the sisters remain tethered to their late aunt’s legacy. In a recent Tatler feature, Kitty reflected on Prince William taking the reins at Centrepoint, a charity once close to Diana. She spoke with the kind of pride that feels steady and sincere, noting how deeply the family continues to support the work being done for young people.
