Royalty and red carpet stars collide! All the times royals and celebrities dressed alike for standout twinning style moments.
From Lady Gaga channeling Princess Diana to Kate Middleton finding a style match in Sienna Miller, royals around the world both inspire and are inspired by Hollywood's most stylish stars. Scroll through to see how the two worlds have collided to create some of fashion's most glamorous twinning moments.
Royals and celebrities alike are loving Orla Kiely's dark floral print with dots – but who wore it first? Kate Middleton wore the Leith x Orla Kiely Margaret Smock Bib Floral Print dress for a February 2018 outing to the National Portrait Gallery in London, left, and Sarah Jessica Parker, center, wore a skirt featuring the print out in New York City in January. The first famous name we spotted wearing the Orla Kiely design, though, was actress and comedian Sandra Bernhard, right, who sported it at Cyndi Lauper's 2017 'Home for the Holidays' concert benefitting the True Colors Fund at Beacon Theatre on December 9, 2017 in NYC.

Talk about a regal look! Black Panther star Danai Gurira, right, looked like a true queen at the premiere of the blockbuster hit in Johannesburg, wearing a gown by The Row and spectacular traditional neckpiece. South African-raised Princess Charlene of Monaco wore a similar look – a green asymmetrical dress with a Zulu necklace – at the IAAF Diamond League Meeting Herculis track and field competition on July 21 in Monaco.

Timeless Chanel is a hit with glamour girls whether in Hollywood or royal circles! Blake Lively, right, was spotted leaving The Whitby Hotel in New York City on October 16, 2017 wearing a spring 2007 haute couture gown by the famed French fashion house. But the dress had been seen before! Princess Grace's daughter Princess Caroline had donned the dress, which was created by good pal Karl Lagerfeld, at the July 2007 Red Cross ball in Monte Carlo, left. The Monegasque Princess's daughter-in-law Beatrice Borromeo also wore the gown just three months before Blake was seen in the design.

Valentino is a hit with royals and the starry set – and also, of course, first ladies! Both Melania Trump, left, and Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece, right, fell in love with this gorgeous Valentino print. The American first lady wore a short version of the A-line dress for a visit to Paris in July 2017, while the Greek royal opted for a floor-sweeping gown to help King Harold and Queen Sonja of Norway celebrate their birthdays in Oslo back in May.

Carole Middleton took style inspiration from her elder daughter Kate for her 2017 Wimbledon appearance, wearing a tiered dress very similar to one the Duchess of Cambridge wore back in September during her royal tour of Canada and identical to the one worn by Peter Phillips' wife Autumn Phillips to Royal Ascot.
Carole and Autumn's dress is by British brand Rumour London. Meanwhile Prince William’s wife sported a bespoke long sleeve dress that retailed for over $5,000 from Alexander McQueen’s Resort 2017 collection, which featured a high-neck collar and red broderie anglaise pattern number.

She may not be a royal but this twinning moment deserves an honorable mention! Princess Diana's niece and cousin to Princes William and Harry, Lady Kitty Spencer wore a longer version of this Dolce & Gabbana dress to the Serpentine Galleries Summer Party. Kendall Jenner stuck to a mini version for the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic earlier in June 2017.

Crown Princess Mary of Denmark took a page out of Michelle Obama's fashion book for her visit to Stockholm on May 30, 2017. The Danish royal and former first lady, who wore the dress during her visit to Morocco in 2016, chose to leave their hair down and wavy to complement the flowy Altuzarra Winnie dress.

Queen Letizia and Karlie Kloss
Queen Letizia of Spain, left, and supermodel Karlie Kloss, right, showed that wearing a Stella McCartney gown plus some serious diamonds will always be a winning combination.

Kate Middleton and Bee Shaffer
Here's a dress that has both the 'Vogue' and the royal seal of approval! At the 2017 BAFTAs, the Duchess of Cambridge wore a full-length, off the shoulder version of an Alexander McQueen gown that Anna Wintour's daughter, Bee Shaffer, had donned in 2015. The daughter of American Vogue's editor-in-chief opted for dress with spaghetti straps at the Museum of Modern Art Film Benefit in New York City.

Queen Letizia and Kerry Washington
The Spanish royal paired her Carolina Herrera Prince of Wales cut-out dress with nude heels while attending the last day of the 'Woman and disability- We cross borders' International Congress in Avila, Spain in March 2017.

Nicole Kidman and Queen Letizia of Spain
Eagle-eyed style watchers noted that the nude and black lace gown that Queen Letizia wore to the October 2016 Princess of Asturias Awards ceremony in Spain, right, looked just like Nicole Kidman's gorgeous gown at the Omega 'La Nuit Enchantee' gala in Vienna back in 2013.
The dresses, though, are by two different designers: Nicole's is by Oscar de la Renta, while the Spanish royal's dress was created by Felipe Varela.

Kate Middleton and Angelina Jolie
The Duchess of Cambridge looked chic in the Netherlands for her first solo trip abroad in 2016 wearing a periwinkle peplum jacket and matching pencil skirt by Catherine Walker. In 2014, actress Angelina Jolie wore a similar skirt suit by Ralph & Russo to meet Kate's grandmother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth. The Oscar winner looked polish in the pastel-colored ensemble for her audience at Buckingham Palace, where she was presented with the Insignia of an Honorary Dame Commander of the Most Distinguished Order of St. Michael and St. George. Like Kate, the Oscar winner completed her sophisticated look with a low chignon.

The Duchess of Cambridge and Sienna Miller
A little print goes a long way for this stylish duo, though Sienna is much more prone to rocking loud prints than Kate. A few days after the latter made a colourful entrance at the 100 Women in Hedge Funds gala in eye-catching Erdem, actress Sienna embraced the same color scheme in a printed Marc Jacobs gown at the London premiere of her film 'Burnt'.

Chrissy Teigen and Princess Sofia of Sweden
It's no coincidence that the Swedish royal's powder-blue gown looks eerily similar to Chrissy's Oscars ensemble in 2015 - they were both created by master designer Zuhair Murad. The Sports Illustrated model opted for a sexier look complete with plunging neckline and high slit, while Sofia embraced a more modest silhouette to attend a pre-wedding dinner with her now-husband Prince Carl Philip.

With broad shoulders and long, lean physiques, these statuesque blonds definitely know how to work a halter neckline. While the Monegasque royal embraced a ruffled collar at the Princess Grace Awards Gala in 2013, the Hollywood actress opted for a sleeker finish at the 2014 Golden Globes.
