Its a cocktail hat, not a fascinator. Fascinators don't have large bases

Eye of the beholder, I guess.
I hated Gabriella's hat; looked like something a beekeeper would wear.

Actually not a real fan of Gabriella's red hat. I just meant a real hat, used Gabriella's as an example based more on color and style of dress even. I don't consider these 'cocktail hats' anything more than larger fascinators, definitely not a hat. And there are only a tiny handful I like.

The red outfit is great. It really suits her. I don't like the blue with peach dress. Especially that very strange big zipper.. really odd. And she looks so thin wearing such dresses. Not her best look, she diid not look well that day very tired. But the red ... yes!

Fantastic look, the color is great on her and her hat and shoes really do make the look. Her hair is done just as I've been hoping she'd wear it, so flattering to her face, and the hat size and angle are also. The deeper red of the shoes are so gorgeous and the pleating and draping of the coat dress flatter her figure. So nice to see the earrings

I am happy that Ascot, Trooping and Garter Events are over.

The highlight was on Kate 's outfits, dress , shoes , hats , jewels etc...
When you are handsome, may spent a huge amount for your outfits, it is easy

Each time She stoles the show !

Totally should have placed the hat about 3 inches further back on the head.

Is this not the outfit worn previously at Laura PBs and then Zara's wedding?

Lovely coat dress. Totally expected but still appropriate. Nice color

But that head piece I am sorry but that is one of her worst IMO

While Kate has looked lovely at most events, she certainly hasn't stolen the show. Hard pressed to even have her top dressed at any of the events IMO.

And thankfully for those of us who love Ascot, it certainly is not over.

Hat's pointless but the coat is okay.

I think the hat is supposed to be a rose.

The hat is silly and not pretty. The color overall is dull and old. I think she could've done something safe, classic but with a younger look.

I've liked all three of Catherine's recent outfits. The red outfit she wore to the Garter ceremony was gorgeous, and rather Edwardian in feel, which I liked as that feel can often be elegant. The dress she wore to sign the book of condolences was nice and it was thoughtful of her to wear black as a sign of mourning, too. I think the colour of her outfit today is beautiful and I also like the material of her coat. The only thing I don't like here is the hat, for the same reasons as the previous posters have stated.

Well, yes.
Kate is beautiful to begin with, so the clothes can only help.
She photographs like a model also, which gives her a huge advantage.

Her clothing choices are NOT always the best; however, they generally look the best because of her appearance. JMO.
