Arthur, I agree with you whole-heartedly that HM looks lovely - especially in colour. However, since these dinners are considered a state event (i.e. state banquet for as state visit) she continues to wear formal "state dress" which consists of white and/or gold. You will see this also at other events such as the state opening of parliament. I did also note that the Duchess of Cornwall wore white for this dinner. I cannot recall off the top of my head if this has been he case for the past state banquets. HRH has worn white for the state opening of parliament - as do all ladies in HM's retinue including her Ladies-in-Waiting. HM still continues to wear colourful gowns at non-state functions.
