  1. Stunning outfit she looks great
    Only her hair needs to be a bit shorter

  2. Je suis déçu par la coupe et surtout le tissu de cette robe qui paraît froissée sans oublier ses cheveux qui manquent de structure ; Kate nous a habitués à beaucoup mieux ; j’adore, j’adore ses boucles d’oreilles qu’elles portent très souvent !

    Great outfit for this occasion; fresh, crisp, clean lines, current style, not over the top, just right. Love the shoes. Clancy

  6. I don't like the dress, although being a Zara dress it is too strict and old-fashioned.

      Me neither. Not because it is Zara, but because it is always that same old fashion style. In how many colors she has dresses has like this ? It becomes very boring. I like her shoes and earrings. Carla

      Fine she sometimes choose
      to wear
      Zara, but this dress does not fit her and
      her body.

      Me too, I don’t like this old-fashioned dress, neither its cut, nor its print, nor its color.

  7. Absolutely love this look on her! What a perfect dress to wear to an academic setting. I'm happy to see the bow done loose (I'm not a fan when the bows look like they are choking the neck lol). These are some of my favorite earrings of hers as well. Beautiful shoes. I'm torn on her hair, I do like it when she has it a little shorter, but this length isn't terrible.

    I long for a pair of very red shoes with this nice but a bit grey, dress!

    Lovely ensemble, interesting work. I really like her frizure, side part, hair behind the shoulders, visible earrings, lets her focus on the task at hand.

    I like this dress a lot but black and white houndstooth is one of my favorites (I've got tons of it). And I love her hair in a more natural wave, so to speak. I think it looks very nice just sort of brushed and styled without all the extra blow-out and curling. It's not bone straight but it also isn't big bouncy curls. Just nicely groomed. Well done!

    The dress is boring and ill-fitting. Maybe if the accessories will give some contrast for the dress the outfit could work, but not like this. -Siri

    I like Kate's shoes and earrings. Her hair looks good. I love the print but the dress isn't my favorite. The pleats start too low after the belt. It makes Kate look like she has a long torso.

    1. She does have a long torso and actually relatively short legs. Although she is so tall most of the time you don't notice it.

  13. Lovely dress and wonderful shoes. Smart and business like after the casual outfits from a couple of weeks ago, the amazing gown last week and the bright trouser suit. A lady who can look good in anything. Also good to see something high street after the expensive outfits. The shoes are just gorgeous.

    Kate looks good; like the dress. Oddly enough the 7UPprogram followed individuals from age 7 to today. So many things impact on a child's life; just look at the lives of Prince William and Prince Harry same family different outcome.(Tara)

  15. Great dress--perfect for the occasion! Kate looks wonderful in this feminine business houndstooth dress. Wish she would add a pop of color with her shoes--red, a bright blue, green--because it would add some pizzazz to this dress.

    1. You could expect such a twist in HRH Letizia’s outfit. As for Kate (wonderful! No doubts)… no color surprises.

  16. Love her own dark wavy tresses
    more than her present color.
    Nice outfit but am not a big
    fan of bows, too fussy and
    matronly. Would love to
    see her in more chic styles
    that don't have excess bulk
    and material or pleats.
    She is so lovely in anything
    and has the heart to match.
    A credit to England and RF.

    Not a fan of this dress. Too pale and old-fashioned and makes Kate look old and boring.

    I probably would have disliked this dress if she had worn her hair in tight and severe bun but now with her lovely and soft wavy hairstyle, she looks businesslike and so pretty. Another sylish look from Catherine.

    I like the business vibe of the dress. I like that she can wear high street items.
    Her hair is in need of a trim. Its too long now. Ana

    I quite like the dress: It fits the occasion of being in an educational setting, without taking away from the reason for the meeting. Catherine wears the dress well, shoes are a great addition without taking away from the overall look. jj
