Kate Middleton Is Radiant In A Sheer Baby Blue Blouse And Matching Tulle Skirt At The Coronation Garden Party

King Charles III’s coronation on Saturday, May 6th was only the beginning of the new monarch’s celebrations, as he and Queen Camilla hosted a Coronation Garden Party at Buckingham Palace just a few days later on May 9th. And the weather seemed to be much more pleasant for the garden party, which we bet the attendees were very grateful for; especially Kate Middleton, as her stunning blue outfit was far too chic to be rained on!
The Prince and Princess of Wales actually acted as hosts on behalf of the King; and naturally the Princess, 41, looked flawless, as usual. For her outfit, Kate chose to re-wear an Elie Saab ensemble consisting of a modified version of the powder blue polka dotted macramé pussy bow top and lined embroidered tulle skirt with an A-line silhouette. She previously wore it to Royal Ascot back in June 2019, and we are *so* glad she gave it another outing as it’s too spectacular to only wear once!
The Elie Saab masterpiece featured sheer sleeves, which the designer made just for the Princess the first time she wore it (see below for a picture from her almost-identical Ascot outing… note how the earrings are different!) as the version you can buy has short sleeves. We love the sheer romanticism of the look!
