I've yet to get a proper glimpse at the suit, but from what I've seen,she looked pretty.

I love the color and style except the collar is out of place for me. Would of loved to seen her hair pulled back.
But overall she looks quite nice.

This suit reminds me of styles she wore in her pre and immediate post wedding days. I like the colour but agree that the collar of the blouse doesn't work. I would like to see the blouse on its own maybe with trousers or a different skirt to have a better opinion on it.

This emerald green is a fantastic color on her. The suit is well cut and fits well. I dislike the collar, it makes an otherwise sophisticated outfit look childish.

Perhaps we'll see this suit make an appearance for the Irish Guards on St. Patrick's Day.

I hope she doesn't go to the Irish Guards on St. Patrick's Day since that is William patronage.

I absolutely adored the green suit. The first two full views were so striking. The green looks fantastic on her, the length of the skirt was elegance personified and then came Upper part 1. It was like a fingernail on a chalkboard, a needle scratching over a record, it made me shudder . . . what the . . . oh, that is too twee for words.
Upper part 2, with its watermark obscuring the peter pan collar, said it all. Who needed it? Catherine certainly didn't.

And yes I know she has went before but the over the top reaction to her not going last year has me wanting her to stay away especially since its William patronage.

I like the blouse. I'm assuming that it's a very fine cotton, or perhaps Irish linen, with delicate hand embroidery. It's a nice change from the ubiquitous and voluminous scarves so many ladies are wearing now; tidy and dainty and refreshing.

I agree that the collar of the blouse doesn't complement the suit. A brooch might have been an option but Kate doesn't seem to favour these apart from those which have a particular association.

Even worse, why wear the collar of a blouse on the outside with a closed up suit?

Still a Peter Pan collar, just not the collar of the coat
I agree duke, makes no sense to wear the collar outside.
My first impression of the collar fabric, detail and Peter Pan, reminded of an old fashioned school girl pinafore look. Seeing the actual top, just adds to it.

At first glance, the suit didn't look identical to the Luisa Spagnoli one,but then I noticed it was indeed that one. Good choice. I like her hair, too.

I love this suit: The red color, black buttons/belt, the peplum. It fits well.

I always love this suit. It's interesting and fun at the same time as being professional. A great choice to repeat :)
