And she looks so happy.

JaimeBronde · 14/10/2019 19:10

Thanks for that myrtle

JaimeBronde · 14/10/2019 19:13

And everyone else for the photos/link.

WhoKnewBeefStew · 14/10/2019 19:17

She looks amazing and so happy. For some reason I'd have put flat, satin shoes with it. But that's just me

TSSDNCOP · 14/10/2019 19:20

LOVE.IT!

Love the colour, the shoes, the neckline.

Great start Kate!!

iknowimcoming · 14/10/2019 19:21

I think she looks stunning but agree the shoes are a bit meh! I look very similar when I get off a plane after a long flight actually GrinWink

TSSDNCOP · 14/10/2019 19:22

Every one of my Indian friends would’ve had immense heels on with that outfit. I think satin slippers might have slipped into Aladdin territory.

Doyoureallyneedtoask · 14/10/2019 19:25

I’m on my own here. I don’t like it. I don’t like the colour, the neckline, the tightness, the shoes.

Gooseysgirl · 14/10/2019 19:29

Not on your own... I don't love it either! The biggest problem is the shoes... she needed strappy sparkly heels to finish it off.

Max however 😍 simply breathtaking!!!!!

Cassavaflower · 14/10/2019 19:30

Love the colour but the shoes look wrong. Maybe sparkly heeled sandals not stilettos.

itswinetime · 14/10/2019 19:31

Satin slippers would have pushed it over into costume like tertiary I think. I don't think it's the heels that are the problem I think it is the colour.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2019 19:31

Loved Kate’s outfit. I wonder if they are going straight to an evening reception?
I think the shoes would have been good in satin dyed to match the trousers.
Is it a Jenny Packham? Kate really suits chiffon

Spudlet · 14/10/2019 19:31

The cowl neck is a bit Star Trek costume-esque, but apart from that I like it.

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2019 19:32

I don't think it's awful but I don't think it's amazing either. But appropriate, though I don't know why she's so keen on ice blue as it isn't that flattering on her. Not keen on the nude shoes with it either but she's been travelling all day so I'll give her a pass!

Max...

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2019 19:33

Max looked amazing! I’m trying to see if it was a sari or a dress styled like a sari.
This week is going to be a smorgasbord of outfits!

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2019 19:33

Yes @Spudlet, those shoulder pads are very Star Trek!

Pale icey blue satin shoes would have finished that outfit off beautifully!

It looked fantastic in motion coming down those stairs and with that lighting.

paradyning · 14/10/2019 19:37

I think it is like Cam's style. But only because that the style she favours. Maybe that's why it's ageing? By association?
I agree the colour is too cool for her. I hate that she wears these cool blues. They don't suit her colouring.
Maybe silver shoes? Or grey suede?

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2019 19:39

No I think that would've been too match-matchy @Laiste. Maybe silver sandals?

Or she could've gone all elderly Asian lady in winter and worn trainers or socks and sandals!

MotherofPearl · 14/10/2019 19:40

I really dislike ombré so I'm afraid I'm not keen on DoC's dress, but as @QueenOfTheAndals says, it's appropriate. Though I agree that pale blue isn't the best colour on her.

Max's dress, on the other hand, looks great on her!

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2019 19:40

Her silver Choos would've gone well with it.

frugalkitty · 14/10/2019 19:41

Oh Max's dress is simply gorgeous!!! I love it!

frugalkitty · 14/10/2019 19:42

Queen yes, silver shoes would have been much better.

RoseQuartzGlow · 14/10/2019 19:46

I really don't like the outfit or shoes and think it does nothing for her. She looks tense too, which is unusual for her. Doesn't look like she's enjoying it.
