Princess Kate Stylishly Steps Out in Alexander McQueen, Catherine Walker and More

Princess Kate‘s latest looks continue to prove why she’s become the royal family’s most fashion-forward icon.

2026’s First Tiara Moment

The Princess of Wales donned her favorite Lover’s Knot Tiara and earrings that belonged to the late Queen Elizabeth II for the first state banquet of the year on March 18, honoring the president of Nigeria and his wife. Kate chose an Andrew Gn gown in a deep green hue — a nod to the African nation’s flag.

Sartorial Diplomacy

She nailed diplomatic dressing earlier in the day, too, donning a gray blazer-inspired frock coat by British-Nigerian designer Tolu Coker to welcome Nigeria’s leader and first lady to Windsor for their state visit. A matching velour hat by Jane Taylor Millinery topped the sharp look.

Wearing of the Green

Adding a belt to a green double-breasted Alexander McQueen coat she’s had for years, Kate handed out shamrocks to the Irish Guards — she’s the honorary colonel of the regiment — on St. Patrick’s Day. A braided updo likely paid respect to Celtic knots.

Working Girl

Polished comfort was key for a March 12 visit to a London street food market where cheese was sliced, coffees were made and pints of beer were pulled. A tailored Catherine Walker blazer worn over a crisp poplin button-down, stretch trousers and practical ankle boots struck the perfect balance.

Go-To Designer

The princess turned again to a favorite British label, Catherine Walker, once again for the annual Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey March 9, wearing a navy coatdress with a Sean Barrett saucer hat from her closet updated with matching netting. A Susan Caplan five-strand faux pearl necklace was an elegant touch.

Holi Holiday

Going barefoot for Holi — a Hindu spring festival — Kate danced with local women during a March 5 visit to Leicester’s British-Indian community. A garland of pearls and roses popped against a creamy white Chris Kerr coat worn over a Polo Ralph Lauren sweater dress.
