Monaco’s new princess, Charlene Wittstock, wears Akris often. She even wore Akris to Kate Middleton’s wedding to Prince William in the spring — her most important look next to her own wedding dress, obviously — and seeks advice from the designer, Albert Kriemler, about her outfits.

Wittstock was merely taking a break from being princess. And with the show being Grand Prix–themed, she had a Monaco-related reason for being there, kind of.
