Kate Middleton assumed the title of Princess of Wales following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022. Despite undergoing chemotherapy treatment, she has managed to make a few public appearances in 2024, showcasing a blend of traditional royal elegance with modern fashion trends.
One of Middleton's notable ensembles included a black military-style coat by Catherine Walker, paired with accessories like a hat, tights, leather heels, and pearl earrings from the late Queen's collection. She also sported a striking Alexander McQueen coat with a high neckline and pleated skirt, complemented by rich-toned accessories.
Her fashion choices extended to a burgundy pantsuit by Roland Mouret, a red suit by Alexander McQueen, and a houndstooth-print coat by Catherine Walker. Middleton also opted for a teal Catherine Walker coatdress on St. Patrick's Day, paying homage to her role as Colonel of the 1st Battalion of Irish Guards.
For family events, Middleton coordinated with her husband, Prince William, in matching blue ensembles, often choosing Catherine Walker designs. She also showcased her style in emerald and navy dresses by Suzannah London and Elie Saab, respectively.
Recycling outfits was not uncommon for Middleton, as seen with her powder-blue Elie Saab dress worn to the Royal Ascot in 2019. She also sported a navy polka-dot dress by Alessandra Rich and a white polka-dot dress by Alessandra Rich, paired with a black hat and shoes.
During official visits, Middleton opted for professional yet stylish attire, such as a green suit by Burberry and a cream ensemble by Sézane. She also sported a checked Burberry jacket in Scotland and a red Catherine Walker dress during a ceremonial welcome by the Republic of Korea.
Notably, Middleton made her first public appearance of 2024 at Trooping the Colour in a knee-length dress by Jenny Packham, which she previously wore at a luncheon. She accessorized with a white hat, heels, and the Irish Guards Regimental Brooch.
Attending Wimbledon with Princess Charlotte, Middleton wore a purple Safiyaa London dress with cap sleeves and a cinched waist, completing the look with nude shoes and sunglasses.
