Prince William, as Colonel of the Irish Guards, is attending the St Patrick's Day Parade of the IG and he is wearing the Frock Coat which is worn by certain officers who have special appointments such as Commanding Officer or Adjutant of regiments of the Brigade of Guards. The overlapping, descending lapels are part of the design of the uniform.
The dark uniform coat (William & some others) has a peculiar front (best seen in photo 3)
