Kate a symphony in camel. I hate camel and really don't like this. Those teeny bags look ridiculous.

Like the cut of it all but don't like the camel either and wouldn't think it's Kate's best colour. Thought it had has its day but obviously not.

I love camel but think it's better on blondes.
Kate all dressed up but William spoils the sophisticated look by wearing a wine jumper. 😀
Couldn't he wear an M&S or Uniqlo heatgen vest under his shirt instead of a jumper ?

KillingMeDeftly · 03/11/2022 13:33

That's a very Meghan ensemble! Camel is not a great colour on Kate - I agree it's best on blondes, or on darker skin.

mikado1 · 03/11/2022 14:26

Yes, it looks great on JLo.

Serenster · 03/11/2022 14:33

I love camel, and would wear that outfit in a heart beat - it looks very polished when it’s t really very simple. With interesting shoes though. We can’t see her shoes there but I’m willing to bet that they are also camel (sigh).

DisforDarkChocolate · 03/11/2022 14:53

I'd wear it too @Serenster but then camel looks fabulous with red hair.

The shoes are indeed camel. I'd have liked to see a bit more of a contrast - maybe those plum heels she has?

Great organisation and a very worthy cause. Always nice to see Wills and Kate out together. However - I really dislike beige, and also the monochrome look. I wish Kate would be a bit braver with colour, she looks so good in those strong berry and leaf colours.

Not the best colour on her, I agree. It is a very polished look though. Would have loved to see some contrasting shoes, or just something to break up the complete monochrome-ness.

There’s a very cute little video on What Kate Wore, when William is making some remarks and a very little girl in a princess dress presumably escapes from her mum/dad and toddles straight across the front to see something that has caught her eye 😂

Eaumyword · 03/11/2022 21:58

Going against the grain here, but I love it and think Kate looks fab there. And I like William's jumper too!

667TheNeighbourOfTheBeast · 03/11/2022 22:32

I like the style on Kate very stylish but really don’t like the colour, I agree lol about William’s jumper 😃 should get a thermal T shirt.

RomainingCalm · 03/11/2022 23:41

I really don't like that outfit on Kate, imo it's one of the worst in a long time. The colour, the polo neck, the silly shoes.

Sorry, I am particularly grumpy today but it doesn't work for me.

Gooseysgirl · 04/11/2022 07:28

Great outfit, wrong colour. Personally I'm not a fan of camel at all. Meghan has done a similar look I think and I don't like the colour on her either.

CliffsofMohair · 04/11/2022 09:05

Ugh camel no.

gluenotsoup · 04/11/2022 09:26

I quite like it! I agree it’s too much the though, the belt and shoes are only a shade darker. Even if she had chosen more of a whiskey shade of tan for the accessories would have helped, or a berry, dark green, burnt orange, even animal print for one of the accessories would have lifted it a lot.

gluenotsoup · 04/11/2022 10:06

Charlene has been at an event in this colourful dress. I normally love her style, but this one is a miss for me. I like the colours and the pattern but not for a dress, it’s too busy and not very flattering.

Kate’s own tribute to Lenny Beige! But seriously, it’s great they are supporting initiatives to tackle mental health issues. The stigma is horrific (I know from personal experience ) any help is welcome.

Eaumyword · 04/11/2022 17:46

Kate inspired me to buy a camel roll neck jumper today, to go with my camel leather skirt! Worn with chunky black DM's though.
I like the pattern of Char's dress, but not the neckline and sleevelessness.

KnickerlessParsons · 04/11/2022 18:03

I like Char's dress, but it looks too long to me.

MintyFreshOne · 04/11/2022 18:51

Why does PW always dress so awkwardly? Doesn’t he have a stylist or anything? He always looks shabby

ShamedBySiri · 04/11/2022 18:51

I'm afraid Charlene's dress is highly reminiscent of this duvet cover.

ShamedBySiri · 04/11/2022 18:54

I love a camel coat, and I love a camel polo neck but the camel on camel all over camel is a big No from me. Not one of Catherine's better looks and I really like her style most of the time.

He doesn't take after his dear old dad, that's for sure. Charles has never been a looker but he's always dressed impeccably.

667TheNeighbourOfTheBeast · 04/11/2022 19:54

@KillingMeDeftly I agree regarding Charles he always looks well turned out.
