Kate’s fashion

In a somewhat unadventurous wardrobe, the Duchess of Cambridge looked smart and elegant in a combination of top designers – Jenny Packham, Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana, Carolina Herrera, See By Chloé – with high street brands including Zara and Hobbs. Nods to Canada came in an alpaca cardigan-style jacket by Sentaler and a green linen blazer by Smythe. But the standout was a show-stopping red gown by Preen by Thornton Bregazzi, worn at a Government House evening reception. The Duchess frequently wore a sparkling diamond and platinum maple leaf borrowed from the Queen.
