The royal was appropriately dressed for the occasion, wearing a white tea-length dress from London-based brand Suzannah. Inspired by the popular ’40s wiggle dress, the piece featured a skimming fit over the bodice and a lightweight silk skirt. It was also contoured with delicate pin-tucks and cinched at the waist with a matching belt to flaunt Middleton’s waistline. Buttons lined down the center, with cuffed half-sleeves that proved chic and sophisticated.

For footwear, the duchess opted for a classic: Gianvito Rossi’s Piper 85 pumps. The black shoes came with an inches-high block heel and a sharp pointed toe, with a leather insole for comfort and a suede finish for an elegant yet versatile look. Middleton has often stepped out in the Italian luxury label’s coveted designs, owning pairs such as the Mila ankle-strap d’Orsay heels as well as the brand’s signature 105 suede and leather pumps.

The duchess finished off her ensemble with shapely black sunglasses and an Alexander McQueen mini-handbag. She took a seat not in the royal box, but next to British tennis players Katie Boulter and Anne Keothavong.
