Kate Middleton's Cream Lace Alexander McQueen Dress
Well, Kate Middleton had a jam-packed schedule yesterday (it's almost like the royal tour!). In the morning, she dropped by the America's Cup launch in a brand-new, on-sale, and nautical-chic dress. Then the Duchess reached into her sure-to-be-packed closet for an old favorite to attend an afternoon garden party at Buckingham Palace. The busy royal recycled a cream lace Alexander McQueen dress last seen two years ago—worn with a grosgrain belt—at the Diamond Jubilee. You know, as opposed to two months ago. This time around, Kate went monochrome by accessorizing with a matching fascinator by Jane Taylor, a clutch from Russell and Bromley, and her fave L.K. Bennett cream pumps. Not quite sure how she navigated the grounds in her high heels, but she looked fantastic. Short or long sleeves bring an elegant effect to the summer lace dress, making for a regal alternative to the edgy-boho version. Since you can't buy Kate's exact same piece, check out a few Duchess-inspired garden party looks here:
