Kate Middleton and French President Emmanuel Macron were seatmates for a state banquet on July 8, and they shared several friendly moments during the posh, star-studded event.

Brigitte Macron wore a deep blue silk crepe column gown by Louis Vuitton that featured a cape effect similar to that of Middleton’s dress. The shoulders of the dress also included hand-embroidered black and silver jewel embellishments.
