Gabrielle Union's See-Through Dress Combined Shimmer and Sheer

Gabrielle Union  may not be an official Bond girl, but after her latest look, it wouldn't be surprising if the  Bring It On  alumnae managed to snag a role in the long-running spy franchise. Over the weekend, she was on hand to celebrate her husband  Dwyane Wade 's Miami Heat statue unveiling. Together, retailers Revolve and FWRD hosted a James Bond-inspired celebration for the occasion and Union arrived looking like the ultimate femme fatale. Union's long, slinky gown featured alternating rows of sheer black material and shimmering bands. It made for a graphic mix of shimmer and shine between swathes of skin. The dress also featured halter neckline and ankle-skimming length. The actress and mother finished the look off with a rhinestone-embellished bag and strappy black heels. Of course, it was a family affair as Union and Wade posed alongside their kids at the event. Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images for FWRD Alexander Tamargo/Getty Images for FWRD The ...

Princess Kate and Prince William also shared an Instagram carousel featuring the images lensed by Hatton during today's event.

"Congratulations to everyone who received honours at Windsor today!" they captioned the post. "It was a pleasure to have @lizhatton_photography helping us to capture these special moments 📸🎖️."

Hatton thanked the royals for the opportunity by commenting, "It was my absolute pleasure to meet everyone and take photos today at Windsor, it was a great honour and was essentially a dream come true, so I truly hope to be a part of any and all future events! xx 🥰🫶."

The BBC previously reported that after being "diagnosed with desmoplastic small round cell tumour in January," Hatton was given "six months to three years to live." So, the teenager made a photography bucket list, which included things like shoot rehearsals of a major musical, photograph London Fashion Week, and help film a movie. As a fellow photographer, Kate must have been touched by Hatton's story.

Hatton's mother, Vicky, previously spoke with the BBC saying her daughter is "so kind" and deserving of this honor.

"She's just so kind, she always thinks of things to take to the nurses on the ward," she gushed. "She always thinks of other people, not just herself, so it's really, really lovely that other people have gone out of their way to help her—because that's the way she is."

Michelle Obama Put a Fierce Twist on the Pantsuit in Head-to-Toe Animal Print

  With just 9 days left until the 2024 Presidential Election,   Michelle Obama   is ready for a fight—at least, judging by her latest look on the campaign trail. On Saturday, the former First Lady attended a rally in support of the Democratic nominee,   Vice President Kamala Harris , in the swing state of Michigan while seemingly sending the opposing party a subliminal message with her outfit.  Looking fierce in a black and brown leopard print pantsuit from Theory, Obama wore a single-breasted blazer with sharp shoulders and coordinating slim-fit trousers. She layered a black top underneath and accessorized with a pair of black round-toe pumps. Obama continued the symbolism with touches of blue (the color of the Democratic Party)—including a set of blue stones that embellished her gold hoop earrings and a bold blue manicure.  Getty Her hair was worn in braids and pulled back into a low-slung ponytail, and she finished off her glam with a nude glossy lip and...
