Kate looked absolutely stunning as she stepped out in a beautiful burgundy outfit, embracing the popular autumnal hue. The Duchess of Cambridge exuded grace and elegance as she greeted the Emir of Qatar during his state visit to London today.
It was a special occasion for Kate, as it marked her fifth official appearance since her cancer diagnosis in May 2024. Despite her health struggles, she radiated confidence and poise in her regal ensemble. Her burgundy coat dress, hatband, and clutch bag were the perfect choice for the cooler weather, and she completed the look with a pair of stylish boots and leather gloves.
But what truly caught everyone's attention were the stunning pieces of jewelry adorning Kate's outfit. The four row pearl-diamond choker by Garrard, originally gifted to Queen Elizabeth II, added a touch of royalty to her look. She paired it with the stunning Bahrain Pearl Diamond Drop Earrings, which were gifted to the Queen and Prince Philip as a wedding present in 1947. These iconic pieces were later made into jewelry and famously worn by the Queen in her first Royal Command portrait.
This wasn't the first time Kate had worn these jewels together. She had also donned them at Prince Philip's funeral earlier this year, and most recently at the Remembrance Day Service at the Cenotaph. It was a sentimental nod not only to the late monarch, but also to Princess Diana, who had worn both the earrings and the choker at a banquet in 1982.
Accompanied by her husband, Prince William, and King Charles, Kate looked every bit the regal yet trendy princess. The absence of Queen Camilla, due to a chest infection, did not dampen the welcoming ceremony for the Emir of Qatar. The two-day state visit has seen the Qatari flag displayed along The Mall for the first time ever.
This year, Kate has been taking a step back from her royal duties to focus on her health. She has made just a few public appearances, including Trooping the Colour in June and the Wimbledon Men's Final in July. Despite undergoing chemotherapy, she looked radiant in a white Jenny Packham dress for the King's birthday parade, and a customised Safiyaa dress at Centre Court, where she watched the final with her daughter, Princess Charlotte.
In September, Kate shared the good news that she had finished chemotherapy and was now cancer-free. She also attended events to mark Remembrance Day in November. It was an emotional and triumphant moment for Kate, who has been facing her health battle with strength and grace.
Kate's journey has been an inspiration for many, and her courage and resilience have touched the hearts of people around the world. Her presence at the state visit today was a reminder of her unwavering determination to fulfill her royal duties, despite the challenges she has faced. We wish her continued health and strength as she continues to shine as a role model for many.
