December 6th 2024.
Kate Middleton arrived at Westminster Abbey for her annual Carol Service, looking like Mrs. Christmas herself. The Princess of Wales donned a stunning red tartan skirt by Emilia Wickstead and a long red wool coat by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. This wasn't the first time she had been seen in this coat, as she had previously worn it to various events, such as the launch of her Hold Still photography exhibition in 2020 and the Rugby League World Cup in 2022. However, she added a fresh touch to the ensemble by incorporating one of this season's biggest fashion trends - a bow. The large velvet black bow on the collar of her coat perfectly complemented the black buttons and her black suede heeled boots. As a final touch, Kate accessorized with large gold and pearl drop earrings, a gold bangle, and her iconic sapphire and diamond engagement ring.
The addition of the velvet bow gave Kate's old coat a festive makeover, making it perfect for the special occasion. This event marked the sixth time the 42-year-old had made a public appearance since her cancer diagnosis in May 2024. In recent weeks, she had chosen to wear Alexander McQueen coats and coat dresses for several of her outings. At the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall in November, she was seen in a black Alexander McQueen coat dress, and for the Qatar state visit on December 3, she greeted the Emir of Qatar in a burgundy coat by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. She completed the look with Gianvito Rossi Rhymes boots and a Sahar Millinery Teardrop Beret, specifically made for her.

For the carol concert at Westminster, Kate will be presiding over the Together at Christmas service, which celebrates individuals who have supported others. She wrote a heartfelt letter to the 1,600 carol goers at the Abbey, including members of the royal family, expressing that "Love is the light that can shine bright, even in our darkest times." Her message reminds everyone to be a light for each other, not just during Christmas, but throughout the year.
During the event, Kate will also have the opportunity to chat with those giving readings, such as actors Richard E Grant, Michelle Dockery from Downton Abbey, Sophie Okonedo, and Olympic swimming champion Adam Peaty. Do you have a story to share? Get in touch by emailing [email].
