The Duchess of Cambridge has just completed her two day tour of Paris, here's what she wore on her visit to the European fashion capital
The Duchess has become very adept at championing home grown talent whilst also making sure to promote her host country whilst on royal visits. And this weekend she didn't disappoint.
The Duchess arrived in the French capital on Friday wearing the same green Catherine Walker coat that she had worn earlier in the day at an Irish Guards event in London, celebrating St Patrick's day.
The Duke and Duchess were greeted at the Élysée Palace by French President François Hollande.
For an embassy reception later that day, hosted by Her Majesty’s Ambassador to France Patrick Llewellyn and his wife, Lady Anne Llewellyn, the Duchess changed into a chic, full length sleeveless black gown by Alexander McQueen .
For a black tie dinner at the British ambassador’s residence that evening , Kate made her third outfit change of the day, into an embellished gown by another of her 'go to' designers Jenny Packham .
On the final day of her visit the Duchess of Cambridge paid homage to her Parisian hosts by wearing a coat from one of the city’s famous fashion houses. Not only a choice that would have delighted her hosts, but also a winning look for Kate, who must surely have relished the opportunity to wear the chic French luxury label.
Kate emphasised her waist with with a back Chanel double C belt and she also carried a small burgundy quilted leather top-handle Chanel bag.
Her burgundy fringed block heels were a pair of Tod's that she's worn before. Kate made another subtle nod to French style by accessorising with a necklace, earrings and watch by Cartier.
To watch the Wales Vs France rugby match the Duchess recycled a red pillarbox-red Carolina Herrera coat , that she had previously worn during the couple's royal tour in Canada last September.
It may have been a whirlwind trip but Kate undoubtedly managed to win over her hosts.
