Auto racing is a century-old tradition in Monaco, and this month Prince Albert and Princess Charlene were present for a race—and, even better, for the glittering gala afterparty in Monte Carlo.

On Sunday, May 17, the Prince and Princess of Monaco were on hand to watch the second of two races run during the Monaco ePrix, a Formula E competition for electric cars. Prince Albert and Princess Charlene handing out trophies to the winner, Oliver Rowland, and the runner-up, Felipe Drugovich.

Princess Charlene wore a white trouser suit for the occasion (from Elie Saab, UFO No More tells us) with classic diamond stud earrings.

In the evening, the Prince and Princess headed to the Hôtel de Paris in Monte Carlo for the race’s gala dinner. Here, they pose with Michel Boeri, president of the Automobile Club de Monaco; Christophe Mirmand, Monaco’s Minister of State; and Formula E chairman Alejandro Agag.

For the dinner, Charlene glittered in a sparkling evening gown from Jenny Packham, paired with diamond earrings, a diamond bracelet, and her diamond engagement ring.

The earrings and bracelet both come from Graff’s Spiral collection, described on the company’s website as “beautifully designed jewelry with seamless streams of diamonds that whirl endlessly into themselves.”

Here’s a closer look at the earrings from the Graff website. These feature approximately 2.29 carats of white diamonds set in white gold. The earrings are marked “price on application.”

And here’s the bangle-style bracelet, which is also made of white gold and set with 2.47 carats of white diamonds. The jewel retails on the Graff website for $31,800.

The family’s social media accounts also shared this moody black-and-white portrait of Charlene taken during the gala, emphasizing just how sparkly the bodice of the Packham gown really is.
