Kate Middleton: Top seven fashion moments from the royal visit
Fashion moments from Kate's royal visit to Canada
The first official visit by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge was a
great success and will leave a lasting impression on Canadians similar to the 1939
tour with King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.
Kate Middleton has quickly proven herself a fashion icon, putting a
stamp on her favourite designers while successfully establishing her own personal style. Notably, she has also put a spotlight on our nation's pool of talented designers. During this tour, Kate’s choice of colour went from one end of the spectrum - pale, earth
tones - to the other with vibrant blues and purple. Her accessories were
kept to a minimum, adding only earrings, a brooch, or a compact clutch. For
shoes, her pale patent heels proved versatile, as she wore them with both neutral
and bright outfits.
We pick Kate's top style moments from the royal tour.
Great in grey

Canadian chic
Wearing Canadian designer, Erdem, for a second time, she pairs this vibrant blue sheath dress with neutral heels by LK Bennett.
Red, white and beautiful
On Canada Day, she wore our flag colours: a white Reiss dress, red pumps and a Sylvia Fletcher for Lock & Company fascinator.
Classic and Canadian
She topped a Roland Mouret sheath dress with a blue linen Smythe blazer and a Mulberry bag.
Cowgirl cutie
