25-06-2011 9:08pm#1I noticed in the royal wedding megathread there was a lot of interest in Kate Middleton's style so I thought it deserved a thread of it's own! Today at the Irish guards military parade she wore an Alexander McQueen coat with prada suede shoes. It's fitted beautifully and one of her best choices so far in my opinion.
The coat is tailored for her, It is based on this http://www.net-a-porter.com/intl/product/163698?cm_mmc=LinkshareUK-_-ProductFeed-_-Alexander_McQueen-_-Jackets&siteID=idBRCHEwd9g-PR2cnoYgWkCW6R8bYEyJtQ

Just a little story about the ring (or a similar one), my grandmother bought a ring around 1980 that was the exact same as Diana's, a very dark blue sapphire on a gold band with a row of diamonds around it. When Diana got engaged and her ring became so well known my Nan was really mad/mortified, she had it first!
So she had another row of diamonds added to the ring to make it look different (and better, my Nan was known for her bling!), this ring is now my mother's, she used to wear it every day until she hit it off something in the freezer unit in Tesco and knocked out a diamond, so now it's brought out only for special occasions, it's stunning, I'm not allowed wear it

The coat is McQueen, the coat Kate wore was tailored especially for her.I LOVE the coat in the first pics. Not sure if It's Burberry or McQueen,as I've heard both. I'd actually buy it if I could find it at a decent sale price somewhere.
The brooch belongs to the Irish Guards regiment.
It was based on this coat http://www.net-a-porter.com/intl/product/163698?cm_mmc=LinkshareUK-_-ProductFeed-_-Alexander_McQueen-_-Jackets&siteID=idBRCHEwd9g-PR2cnoYgWkCW6R8bYEyJtQ

That dress is so unflattering on her. The colour is very old lady lavender and the gathering over her midriff makes it look like this is where her bust is!0 -
Great find on the pic, Twee. The brooch is indeed a family jewel - apparently, she got her pick of the jewels for the trip!She looks very skinny, which makes her look older, IMO. She's only 29.
Purple dress is pretty bad too! But I do believe the maple leaf brooch is another family jewel.
I didn't like the purple dress very much - I also thought it emphasised her skinniness and made her older. The grey dress she wore today was much more flattering.0 -

Only Kate could pull off this over her grey dress.......
On another note. I'm surprised to see so many comments about her weight, She is very, very slim but she doesn't look unhealthy or malnourished. I think she has always been very malnourished and at 5'10' she naturally looks longer and leaner.
