A bespoke Alessandra Rich tea dress at the christening of Prince Louis.

What it’s saying: “Don’t look at my bum, look at my neat bump… I mean, my gorgeous new nephew. You may assume that because I am now six months pregnant my wardrobe would comprise floaty empire line dresses but I am, after all, still a mega-middleton by birth, so we don’t really compromise when it comes to maternity wear. I am demonstrating my mega-ness by wearing a very fashion-forward dress by Alessandra Rich, whose spotted designs were worn by some of the best-dressed at Meghan and Harry’s wedding. I can still play that game. And win.”
