Kate Middleton Wore One of Her Favorite Dresses in Another Color for Remembrance Day

Kate Middleton marked her first Remembrance Day as the Princess of Wales with a touching nod to Queen Elizabeth II.

On November 12, the Princess of Wales joined Prince William at Royal Albert Hall in London for the Royal British Legion Festival of Remembrance wearing a Self-Portrait chiffon blazer dress with a red poppy pin to honor fallen military members. She also took the opportunity to pay homage to her late grandmother-in-law by dipping into Queen Elizabeth’s expansive jewelry collection.

The princess wore a sentimental pair of pearl drop earrings that were gifted to then Princess Elizabeth on her 1947 wedding day by Hakim of Bahrain. She paired the earrings with the four-strand pearl and diamond choker that Middleton previously wore to the queen and Prince Philip’s diamond wedding anniversary in 2017. The Princess of Wales wore the same pieces to Queen Elizabeth’s funeral in September.

While Middleton has proved time and again that she loves to rewear her favorite look, this ensemble proves she is also the kind of woman who purchases her faves in multiple colors. The princess first wore the Self-Portrait dress in cream to host a reception celebrating the Hold Still project in September 2021.

Back in June, Middleton rewore the cream variation for the Platinum Party at Buckingham Palace as part of Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations.

On Sunday, November 13, the Princess of Wales joined Queen Camilla on the balcony of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to overlook the National Service of Remembrance. Along with her poppy pin, the princess’s accessories were a dramatic wide-brimmed black hat and a structured black coat with a pair of pearl drop earrings.
