Preen always has stunning designs and this really works for her. Sleek, not too fussy but still makes a statement.
That must be an Alberta thing. Here in Ontario, we wear red whenever we feel like it. (I'm wearing it today, actually!)
I loved the look last night, though I'm far from sold on those earrings.

Really here in Alberta it's illegal
My point is she is going for a theme. Instead of wearing local designers, she is trying to represent our country in theme. Her wearing the flag colours and maple leafs screams Canada day, when people paint maple leafs on their faces and wear red. The point is Canadians don't go walking around in red all year as some uniform. If she wants to actually show some respect or interest in our country, wear our designers.
I wear red all the time. I wear it because I like the color. No because I am wanting to look like a walking flag. That is the difference,

Well, you wearing your own stuff privately is something different than the Duchess wearing specific clothes during a representative tour
I love this dress - she always looks great. But why, oh, why isn´t it just not possible to wear a tiara for a visit in a Commonwealth country...?!?
She wears red when not in Canada too- and the McQueen dress was hardly walking flag?

I am not keen on the poppy dress Kate wore to the Olympians reception!
I know it's patriotic, but I just don't like it.
I am not keen on the print either
The Duchess returned to one of her favourite designers, Alexander McQueen, for the occasion, looking patriotic in a poppy print dress, which she accessorised with matching scarlet suede heels and a clutch bag.

Same. The print is not horrible, just meh. I would like it to have been less symmetrical and a bit bolder maybe. BUt the cut and flow and draping of the dress is very elegant.I love the style but not the print.
Honestly if she was going to wear poppies, she should have worn her poppy dress from Bhutan. Not my favourite dress from that tour but certainly better than this look IMO.
