I love Kate's green dress she wore recently. Very elegant and beautiful.

I agree, it is a very elegant dress.

I love this. Was hoping she’d bring it back for today’s visit.

The collar looks strange to me...? But of course the photo doesn't show it well. Love the color though.

Lovely. Its the third outing for this ensemble, hope it gets a few more outings.

Perhaps because there isn't a collar?

I have always and will always love this coat dress. Bonus points for the green bag.

Yes you are right. I thought it was a collar which separates wide apart from each other..

I love this dress. Glad to see it again.

The green bag is nice too.

 

[Empress Merel]

What better dress coat to recycle in a Scottish city than this one? She looks great.

 

[eya]

I love it!! Perfect for a day in Scotland!!

 

[_Heather_]

I've always loved this one. And what better place to roll it back out than Scotland? I'm not a huge fan of the bag, though.

 

[Mademoiselle Lilo]

great repeat very fitting for the occasion the Duchess looks great.

 

[An Ard Ri]

Perfect choice for the visit,the duchess is on a roll lately with her wardrobe choices.

 

[HereditaryPrincess]

It's always good to see this outfit on Catherine. Glad to see it again.

 

[Lilyflo]

I love this coat dress & she looks lovely in it. The fitted top/full skirt style suits her so well with her slim frame & height.

 

[Pranter]

LOVE this look on her....great choice!

Ok and who else wants her new bag?

It works very well for her.

I just realized how Catherine could easily become the new Anne in terms of recycling clothes as most of what she is wearing now could also -without anyone being surprised- be worn by those in their fifties or sixties.

You may be right about the collar--there appears to be one.

Yes it has a collar. Its oddly placed, think be better without.

I love the tartan pattern of this look. Nice change from her usual style. Ok her usual style but with a spin not just a color.

 

[Lumutqueen]

Is that a collar? It doesn't look like it sits on top of the coat, but actually within it. Maybe it's just my eyes.

 

[W.Y.CII]

Fake collar I guess? It has a collar shape neckline but doesn't really have a collar (or depend on how we define collar).

I wouldn’t be surprised if Anne is where she is drawing her inspiration from. That is a far smarter tactic for the long run, imo- I mean it has also served the queen quite well too :-D

Whilst Catherine has reused some of her clothes a few times, and this is something I really appreciate, I think she can do far more in this regard. There are an awful lot of her clothes that have only been once or twice in public, and I think she can really set a good example to an awful lot of younger people that clothes do not have to be "disposable" and that they can be used for a long time.

 

[O-H Anglophile]

I’m sure she will. The fact that Catherine tends to wear classic styles makes much of her clothing not look dated. But she hasn’t been a full time working Royal that long. She’s not even been a member of the Royal Family for 8 years yet. And has spent a number of months pregnant.

Anne and the Queen have been doing this for a very long time and both have amassed a large wardrobe. And while most of Anne’s repeats from years ago have held up, some have not.

I love the dress. Very beautiful and elegant.

I love it, too.

OT, but William looks quite elegant himself here. It’s a shame he didn’t inherit his father’s taste for well made clothes because he’s got a great bearing and physique.
