That caught me by surprise! We had a flurry!

I like it, it's not floral or too fussy and I like a strong red.

I really like that, looks quite formal but then I suppose it is Ladies finals and it's a total step away from cliche tennis colours/designs. I also like her hair.

Yes, I think it's a good look. I also like her hair.

I like the shape of the skirt and the movement of the hem around her legs as she walks.

footbeds · 11/07/2026 16:02

it’s quite formal but it’s a really nice dress on her & the colour really suits. Shoes are dull.

I don’t like Kate’s red outfit at all. But I’m influenced by my visceral loathing of red.

Sounds like my response to brown. Also grey.

I really like Catherine’s red outfit. A difficult colour but it works and it’s refreshing to see such a bold shade. I loved the black and white dress she had on yesterday as well. She has a lovely smile that always looks genuine

I love the colour but it looks a bit warm for today and a bit too much like office wear. And ( I have to say it to keep true to myself!) too long!

KiIIingMeDeftly · 11/07/2026 18:48

I'm going to go against the grain and say the red is too bright and overpowering - a less tomatoey shade would've been nicer - and I'm not sure a v-neck is the right neckline for her. But the peplum and skirt are nice and her bag is cute. Great ruby jewellery too.

It's a colour on the Czech flag

Sidebeforeself · 11/07/2026 18:57

@justasking111 I didn’t mean the colour was warm I meant the material looked too warm

RomainingCalm · 11/07/2026 22:06

I love the red dress but I’m generally a fan of Kate in red. It’s a hot day to have to dress formally and it’s a nice change from some of her other Wimbledon outfits.

Eaumyword · 11/07/2026 22:19

Love her red outfit! She looks fab -, beautiful hair&makeup and very happy to be watching the match!

chesterelly1 · 11/07/2026 22:42

Switching from tennis to football Haakon has made it out of one of your’s airing cupboard (Kitty?) and is in Miami to cheer on Norway. Hope this means MM’s recovering well.

TheBoolahBus · 11/07/2026 23:38

Kind of @frugalkitty to let him out for the evening.
Loving the Euro royal appearances at the World Cup matches.

Pallisers · Yesterday 03:05

I really like the red dress - the whole outfit really. She looks great in it.

But I don't think it is a dress for Wimbledon - would be better suited to a different occasion. I'd love to see her in something pretty/floatier. Still it is a lovely dress on her.

deeahgwitch · Yesterday 08:44

I’m in two minds re the dress Kate is wearing.
On one hand it’s lovely and bright and lots of people will be able to spot her, which is nice for them.
The shape and style fit her beautifully.
However it is rather red and I’m not sure the colour suits her.

Although Leti's suit is linen, it's reasonably structured. Nice looks from Leonor and Sofia. Felipe never lets us down.

That is a lovely trouser suit.

Leti looks absolutely tiny compared to the rest of the fam!

Yes! I think they've got Felipe's height genes.

Letizia is apparently 5'7 yet still the short one in her family!

The younger daughter must be at least 6'.
Her shoes are flats, Leti's have a platform, and she's still very much taller than Mum.
