We have to remember that the Wales are dealing with an unbelievably busy schedule while also raising three young children. Catherine probably doesn't have much time to worry excessively about her wardrobe. So because of this, she likely likes to have reliable accessories and outfits she can always depend on. From the looks of things, she loves relying on one certain color - blue.
It's safe to say Catherine looked spectacular in her ice blue gown at her latest engagement. She pulled off another fairy tale look, in my opinion. The exquisite gown was designed by London-based bridal designer Philippa Lepley. The Duchess wore a bespoke version of the Vienna crossover wedding gown, exuding timeless elegance and regal charm. She captured the attention of viewers and photographers alike.
The princess's asymmetrical satin dress once again stole the eyes of viewers and admirers alike. Recalling her engagements during her Canadian tour, Katherine premiered a satin mini dress by Australian designer Tabitha Simmons at a reception held at Government House. She later re-wore the same dress in 2017 at a private dinner, and then again in 2018 for a royal foundation dinner.

Crafted from heavyweight satin, the beautiful £1,000 dress features a striking asymmetrical neckline framing the shoulders elegantly, a slightly pleated bodice, and a voluminous box-pleated skirt. The dress was inspired by the late Deborah Cavendish, the Duchess of Devonshire - an English writer, memoirist, and socialite. Deborah was the youngest and last surviving of the six Mitford sisters, who were prominent members of English high society in the 1930s and 1940s.
The Simmon's dress was described as oozing a grandeur that Deborah would approve of. Katherine's refined aesthetic and attention to detail, from her Jigsaw flats to her Mulberry bag, enhanced her overall look, creating a statement of timeless elegance. But beyond her impeccable fashion choices in the years that have followed, Catherine has worn all manners of head-turning looks.
It's undoubtedly her dress collection that has garnered the greatest attention, from designs by Alexander McQueen and Jenny Packham to Roland Mouret and The Vampire's Wife. Her high fashion moments are some of the most memorable, and she has well and truly secured her position in the fashion hall of fame.

Katherine's recent announcement that she is undergoing preventative chemotherapy, and had kept her diagnosis quiet until her children were on their school holidays, has helped end the collective delusions swirling around the couple. Her public revelation has evoked sympathy around the world and ended the wild conspiracy theories circulating about her appearance in recent weeks.
As sources have reported, the royals have taken several steps to avoid all Sussex-related news, putting a self-imposed ban on anything related to Meghan and Harry as they take some much needed rest, recuperation and family time. But with summer winding down, I'm told they're growing uneasy with the fact that they won't be able to ignore the Sussexes forever - especially with Catherine's return to public life on the horizon.
On Prince Harry's recent 40th birthday, the big question being analyzed is a familiar, echoing one - can he ever make up with his family after all the scandals and controversies of the past two years? William and the King's public messages today are a good start, but someone who has known Harry since he was young tells sources that the prince has never been one to say "I'm sorry" or admit when he is wrong. He may feel some sorrow at how things have turned out, but will never admit any fault in the situation while he remains aligned with Meghan.

While still recovering, reports say Catherine is getting better and ready to resume her royal duties in the autumn. As their schedules get busier, the Wales will be spending more time in London, adjusting to their new routine as a family of five in the spotlight. Their united front and dedication to service will no doubt help strengthen the monarchy in the years ahead.
