Kate Middleton turned to Dior for her monochrome pink attire at the arrival of French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron in Windsor, England, on Tuesday. Her ensemble featured the French house’s 30 Montaigne Bar Jacket in Rose Des Vents along with a Tulle Pleated Midi Skirt in Rose Des Vent.
The Princess of Wales’ jacket featured sinuous lapels with sharp, defined angles as well as three buttons running down the front placket of the piece. Her skirt featured a flowing, whimsical aesthetic, adding a touch of femininity to the overall sartorial statement.
Middleton further accentuated the look with a pair of praline suede pumps courtesy of Gianvito Rossi.

Middleton accessorized the look with a bespoke Jess Collett Milliner and Cefinn boater hat in a shade of rose. As for jewelry pieces, Middleton wore a three-strand pearl necklace with her ensemble and honored her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, by wearing the royal’s Collingwood Diamond and Pearl Drop earrings — a pair she has worn on several high-profile occasions as of late.
The statement behind Middleton’s attire for the French president and first lady’s arrival in England was twofold. The Princess of Wales paid homage to France’s history and culture with her choice of designer for her attire.
Honoring Princess Diana during high-profile occasions has also become a touchstone of Middleton’s approach to fashion as a senior member of the British royal family. Middleton previously wore the Collingwood Diamond and Pearl Drop earrings at the Commonwealth Day Service at Westminster Abbey on March 10 and also wore them for her official 40th birthday portrait during her time as the Duchess of Cambridge in January 2022, photographed by Paolo Roversi.
