Kate Middleton's Lavender Emilia Wickstead Dress

The Duchess of Cambridge Is Positively Glowing, and I Bet Her Dress Has Something to Do With It

It's only been a week since the Duchess of Cambridge returned to her royal duties after being on maternity leave, and she's already making statements. After having stunned in a simple look during a visit to the Sayers Croft Forest School, Kate stepped out with Prince William to attend the Global Ministerial Mental Health Summit in London, wearing a gorgeous lavender dress by Emilia Wickstead. Accessorized with Mappin & Webb jewellery, the Aspinal of London Mayfair bag (£695), and a pair of neutral pumps, Kate's elegant outfit was a perfect fit for the important occasion.

Of course, royal fans will immediately recognise Kate's fit and flare midi dress, which she first wore in Germany during the 2017 royal tour she and her family took part in. Back then, she accessorised it with a red clutch by Anya Hindmarch and purple Kiki McDonough earrings, and had an adorable mummy-and-me moment with Princess Charlotte, who was dressed in a cute little floral dress. Read on to get a closer look at both times the duchess wore this Emilia Wickstead number, and then shop similar dresses for yourself.
