Qhen you need to analyze a look of Kate Middleton the first thing to do is always to search the memory when he had already worn it. Yes, because even the one exhibited for a Jamaica Defense Force Commissioning Parade was terribly déjà vu. But he wasn’t. Or better it was an ivory lace Alexander McQueen bespoke very similar to many other looks worn over the years by the Duchess of Cambridge, including the one for Harry and Meghan’s wedding. Made especially for her.

Kate Middleton in My Fair Lady style
British tabloids have compared the Duchess to the character of Eliza Doolittle in the musical My Fair Lady (played in 1964 by Audrey Hepburn). She wore the same hat as the actress with a maxi flower when she accompanies Professor Henry Higgins to Ascot. Of course she could only be Philip Treacy, the hat designer of stars and aristocrats around the world. Among her accessories, the pearl bracelet that belonged to Lady Diana stands out. And the ivory Anya Hindmarch clutch a bit retro and therefore perfect for an important and impactful outfit.
Before leaving Jamaica, Kate wore an emerald green sheath dress @emiliawickstead which featured an Elizabeth II brooch. It is a hummingbird-shaped jewel made from Jamaica for the sovereign in 2002 on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee. A precious gift with Jamaican granite, sapphire, green marble, yellow gold and silver. The hummingbird’s beak is made up of rubies and diamonds set in gold. A very original piece and, of course, a message of the ties that still bind Jamaica and the British monarchy.
