The Princess of Wales is no stranger to sartorial diplomacy, having carried out many an overseas tour. Whether it's through color choices, traditional fabrics, or symbolic accessories, her outfits always manage to hit the right notes, and Tuesday, Dec. 3 was no different as the princess joined King Charles, Queen Camilla and Prince William for a major state visit at Buckingham Palace.
The 42-year-old royal—who has been making a gradual return to public duties amid her cancer battle—welcomed the Amir of Qatar and his wife, Sheikha Jawaher Bint Hamad Bin Suhaim Al-Thani, to London during a special ceremony. The princess looked elegant in a bespoke Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen coat, and she wasn't just choosing a burgundy style because it's one of the season's hottest colors; the royal's McQueen coat was crafted in the same maroon hue as the Qatari flag.
