In February 2015, The Duchess of Cambridge recorded a video to raise awareness for the first UK Children’s Mental Health Week. In the video, Kate wore a printed shirt dress by Jaeger.
Specifically, Kate wore Jaeger’s Silk Tile Print Shirt Dress in the colour ‘aquifer’.

About the Jaeger Silk Tile Print Shirt Dress:
The knee-length collared shirt dress is described as “relaxed yet elegant” on the Jaeger website, which made it the perfect choice for the video message.
The dress features a “dazzling” tile print, inspired by the architecture in Florence and Porto.
The dress is cut from fluid silk, and can be found in Jaeger’s special “Silk Shop.”
The Silk Tile Print Dress comes with an optional belt tie, to cinch at the wait for a flattering cut.
Finally, the piece comes in a second colour option: paprika, named after the deep rustic red colour Jaeger have used on dress’s trim.
The dress originally retailed for £250 (which is around $385 at today’s exchange rate.)
At the time of writing (July 2015) the dress remains in stock at Jaeger in many sizes and is on sale. There’s currently 20% off all sale pieces at Jaeger Outlet, which means the dress is priced £79.30.
Jaeger’s “Tile Print” design features on a few more pieces in the brand’s current season collection. There are shirts and scarves available in both paprika red and aquifer blue:
