On the 18th June 2019, the Duchess of Cambridge (Kate Middleton) attended the opening of Royal Ascot.

Kate Middleton wears blue ensemble at Royal Ascot 2019.  The Duchess appears slightly windswept as the bow on her dress blows in the wind.

She joined her husband, the Duke of Cambridge, in Carriage Two alongside the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall.

The Duchess of Cambridge sits alongside the Duchess of Cornwall in the Royal Procession at Ascot.

Queen Máxima and King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands joined Queen Elizabeth and Prince Andrew in Carriage One. While Princess Anne, the Countess of Wessex, the Earl of Wessex, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice followed in Carriages Three and Four.

The Royal Procession

The Duchess has taken part in the Royal Procession twice before, back in 2016 and 2017. She missed last year’s event due to maternity leave.

Kate’s outfit at Royal Ascot 2019:

The Duchess wore a light blue blouse and skirt by Lebanese designer, Elie Saab.

The top features a pussy-bow tie, a sheer bodice over a matching slip with lace detailing and sheer wrist-length cuffed sleeves. The skirt falls between midi and maxi length, is made from tulle and features polka dot embroidery throughout.

The pieces appear to be modified from look #49 (below) in the designer’s Resort 2019 collection. As you can see, the original blouse had shorter sleeves.

A look at Kate’s outfit from the back:

Elie Saab is a new designer for the Duchess (we haven’t seen her wear this label before). He’s probably best known for his bridal couture.

This year’s Ascot look was a departure for Kate, who opted for white lace previously. (Below, Dolce & Gabbana in 2016 and Alexander McQueen in 2017).

Kate debuted her fifth pair of Gianvito Rossi 105 pumps. Followers will know she owns the shoe in four other colours – see them all here.

The Italian designer crafted this pair from metallic silver leather. They feature an elegant pointed toe and a slim 105mm high heel. Find the patent silver version (similar to Kate’s) at fwrd.com.

Kate carried a matching silver metallic clutch bag, also by Elie Saab. It’s the ‘Abat Jour‘ style from the designer’s Resort 2016 collection. It’s made from leather, features metallic parts on the front and has matching silver hardware.

Now onto Kate’s hat. It is the OC 147 style from Philip Treacy’s 2016 collection.

If the hat feels familiar, it’s because Kate owns it in pink too. She wore it to Trooping the Colour in 2016.

Finally, Kate added a touch of sparkle to her blue-on-blue ensemble with this pair of Kiki McDonough earrings.

The stunning 18ct white gold earrings feature blue topaz stones (one oval, one cushion cut) surrounded by diamonds. They’re from the jeweller’s Classics collection and retailed for £3,500.

    She looks like a princess stunning in this dress. She always is classy! Beauty

    The colour looked beautiful, she looks lovely but way too much lace for me, that is personal preference. The blouse is very heavy in detail, the shirt however is much nicer more sedate.

    This is such a lovely outfit!! If I could afford it and had occasion to wear it (sadly I don’t really frequent “elegant events” ), I would totally buy one just like it! It is definitely worthy of a princess in my opinion.

      Oh, same here…! I work from home, have a baby on the way and rarely go to anything interesting that’d warrant such a pretty dress. Or a dress at all, haha. I live in leggings and trainers..! I just live vicariously through Kate.

    This is one of my favorite Kate ensembles! That pussy bow blouse. That tulle skirt! Lace and polka dot embroidery everywhere! My favorites. I thought that this was a dress, not a two-piece outfit. Thank you for providing such important details on your blog. This has to be one of the most beautiful ensembles that Kate has ever worn! The soft blue color is absolutely lovely. And the blue hat with blue rose – the perfect icing on the cake! A true princess. The best. Thank you !

      Also one of my favourites, and I thought it was a dress too!
