On the 10th of November 2019, the Duchess of Cambridge joined the Royal Family for the National Service of Remembrance.
It’s the ninth year running she has attended (see our previous coverage from 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 – forthcoming).
The annual service takes place at the Cenotaph war memorial in Whitehall, London and pays tribute to those who have died or suffered as a result of war.
It also honours those who’ve sacrificed themselves to secure and protect the country’s freedom.
As in previous years, Prince Charles lay a wreath at the Cenotaph on the Queen’s behalf.
Kate watched on from a nearby balcony. This year, she stood with the Queen and the Duchess of Cornwall.
Kate’s outfit:
- Coat: Catherine Walker
- Hat: Philip Treacy
- Earrings: Queen’s Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings
- Brooch: Codebreaker’s Brooch from the Royal British Legion
They all are beautiful. Kate is always classy!
Oof. I hate to say this, and I love Kate, but this is my least favorite of her outfits for Remembrance — by far!
I think it’s too harsh and militaristic. She used to have more, well, style for this occasion. I was looking back on her outfits a couple weeks ago, and I think 2014 and 2015 were my favorites. I also like the coat she kept repeating in 2012 and 2016.
The Duchess looked superb. Love this outfit. Perfect fit. The pearl drop earrings are a wonderful finishing touch.
