Kate Middleton Brings a Romantic Touch To Winter Florals
Kate Middleton’s schedule was packed today. She started the day in an electric blue Seraphine dress to joined Princes William and Harry and royal fiancée Meghan Markle (in a tonally coordinating blue Jason Wu frock) to kick off the first annual Royal Foundation Forum. And the expectant mother didn’t miss a beat at the National Portrait Gallery opening of Victorian Giants: The Birth of Art Photography. Middleton dressed like a work fit for the walls in Orla Kiely’s ruffled, floral print dress designed in collaboration with stylist Leith Clark.
The moody floral print is a familiar motif for Middleton, who in the past has opted for versions from Alexander McQueen, Erdem, and Rochas for day and evening affairs. Tonight’s dress also relied on a favored Middleton silhouette, the long-sleeved dress with ruffles. Skin-toned suede stilettos lengthened her legs, while a coordinating clutch furthered the regal, ladylike effect.
