Kate Middleton Just Wore The Chicest Tartan Dress While Visiting Boston—We’re Taking Style Notes!

Piers Morgan may have slammed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for releasing the trailer for their Netflix Harry & Meghan docuseries in the same week that the Prince and Princess of Wales were on their U.S. tour, but we don’t think they – or anything else – could have upstaged them. And a big part of it is down to Kate Middleton‘s tour wardrobe!
Most of the Prince and Princess’s wardrobe for their U.S. tour was sustainable, consisting of outfits they had already worn, vintage pieces, or even items they rented for just a few days.
And one outfit that we can’t get out of our heads is the one the Princess of Wales wore on Wednesday, November 30th for a meeting with Boston’s Mayor Michelle Wu, featuring a stunning navy, green, and red Burberry tartan dress (which she later covered up with a darker green bespoke Alexander McQueen coat) as well as a Mulberry Amberley small satchel bag and Emmy London ‘Rebecca’ green pumps. She was a true vision, as always!
Jewelry wise, the Duchess of Cambridge, 40, added some Shyla London ‘Chunky Knot Baroque Pearl Earrings,’ which although were reportedly a new purchase, are a great choice because Shyla London is a renowned sustainable label; and we won’t be surprised to see her re-wear them again and again!
The Duke of Cambridge and new Prince of Wales, 40, also looked the part, as he kept out the Boston chill in a dark blue coat and a matching suit, which complemented his wife’s outfit perfectly.
Green really was the Princess of Wales’ color on the U.S. tour, as she also wowed in a head-turning bright green Solace London ‘Sabina’ maxi dress – which she actually rented from Hurr – when she and the Prince of Wales attended the second annual Earthshot Prize Awards on December 2nd. It was the perfect move given how the awards focus on sustainability!
The eye-catching green dress featured a Bardot neckline, which is actually pretty daring as far as royal protocol goes, and long sleeves, as well as a knee-high slit at the back which, again, is quite racy considering the super-modest royal dress code.
However, Kate was still the epitome of class and elegance in her rented dress, which she accessorized with Gianvito Rossi ‘Rania 105’ embellished pumps, Asprey London emerald and diamond earrings, and Queen Mary’s Art Deco emerald choker. Flawless!
