I thought the same. Looks far too big and I really don't like the colour either.

LadyEloise · 23/03/2021 16:36

Gosh I think it's lovely on her. A beautiful coat worn so well. She has such a lovely slim figure.,
I think she looks very tired - though the mask tends to draw attention to the eyes and if they are tired it shows.

Maireas · 23/03/2021 16:42

I think it's a beautiful cost, I love the pattern and the scalloped edge. Maybe it's a bit wide round the middle? She looks elegant, thought. I like her shoes and bag.

I guess fitting are unnecessary at the moment. I always think catherine Walker ages her though

It's a bit Camilla-esque.

eggandonion · 23/03/2021 17:24

I Also liked the scalloped edge. I wish I was tall and slim.
Perhaps she bought ita little large so she could wear a warm jumper under it?

DareIask · 23/03/2021 17:27

For me probably the coat she's worn I like the least. Really looks too 'old' for her.

All her coats are too long for me too.

Love the shoes and bag though.

Ninkanink · 23/03/2021 17:30

Tbh I really liked seeing her in a slightly different silhouette. I don’t think it’s too big, I think we’re just so used to seeing her in very, very close cut clothing.

AdaColeman · 23/03/2021 18:17

While I do think that it's a beautifully made coat, to me it seems a very Mother of the Bride style, and a generation too old for Kate. Imagine it in café au [ait or ecru, it's a typical MotB outfit.
I wonder if she may have chosen it to recall her own wedding at the Abbey?

I don't think it is a particularly appropriate outfit for visiting a vaccination centre either, she would have been better wearing something warm and a bright jolly colour!

hopeishere · 23/03/2021 18:57

It looks just the wrong length. I noticed she was wearing a normal / medical face mask today.

iknowimcoming · 23/03/2021 19:07

You don't think perhaps Kate is looking a little thick around her middle?

Ninkanink · 23/03/2021 19:19

@iknowimcoming the thought had crossed my mind... Grin

MotherofPearl · 23/03/2021 19:30

I'm afraid I'm not a fan of that white coat/coat dress. I think it's very dowdy and ageing. I can see that it's a beautifully made thing, but it's far too fussy for my taste.

MotherofPearl · 23/03/2021 19:32

The page hasn't refreshed when I posted, so now I've caught up I wanted to say I 100% agree with you on the MOTB diagnosis Ada. That's exactly the vibe.

MotherofPearl · 23/03/2021 19:39

A few other Royal photos from my NMR trawl.

Max in a truly extraordinary necklace, and then some throwback photos posted by Queen Rania to celebrate Mother's Day. She was so stunningly beautiful; it's a real shame how she's messed around with her face so much.

Max's necklace! Only she could carry it off!
Lovely pictures of Rania.

Rania is beautiful

eggandonion · 23/03/2021 20:31

Would the medical grade mask be needed in a medical setting? Maybe she has been criticized for wearing a cotton mask. I'm sure the past couple of weeks have been stressful.

frugalkitty · 23/03/2021 20:58

I'm not a fan of Kate's coat today, I don't like the scalloped edge on it at all. I agree that it's not her usual perfect fit but I don't think it's you-know-what as she's been quite visible all through lockdown and with the previous you-know-whats she was so poorly that she wasn't doing engagements etc. I will give her bonus points for it not being as tight a round neck as she often opts though though Grin

AdaColeman · 23/03/2021 23:35

I love the necklace Max is wearing, you could easily copy it with some beads, cord and feathers!

Maireas · 24/03/2021 08:24

Lucas Philip Tindall born on Sunday.
Lovely news.

LadyEloise · 24/03/2021 08:41

That's lovely for the Tindals.
I think that Kate looks so elegant in that coat.
