The Duchess of Cambridge attended the Garter Day service today alongside other members of the Royal Family.
The Order of the Garter is the most senior and the oldest British Order of Chivalry and was founded by Edward III in 1348. Each year in June, a procession and service take place at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle for the Order of the Garter. Prince William has been a Royal Knights Companion of the Garter since 2008.
The Duchess opted for a new cornflower blue coatdress reportedly by Alexander McQueen. It features a portrait neckline with notch lapels, fitted bodice with a waistband, pleated skirt, and self-covered buttons at the cuff.
She also debuted a blue Juliette Botterill Floral Leaf Teardrop hat (£560) from the milliner's SS22 collection. It features a woven straw base adorned with an array of silk roses, rosebuds, leaves, and silk abaca bow. ID by Katie’s Royal Love (Twitter).

We saw the return of the blue scalloped clutch bag she first carried in Belize. It remains unidentified.

The Duchess of Cambridge visited Little Village today to learn more about their work supporting young families in London.
Little Village provides pre-loved clothes, toys and equipment for babies and children up to the age of five. It is London’s largest baby bank network and was set up in 2016 and has eight locations across the capital.
The Duchess learnt about Little Village’s work providing essential equipment and clothing to families, and how Little Village volunteers provide emotional support and practical advice over the phone to parents.
Kate joined staff, volunteers and supporters at the charity’s Brent hub and helped to pick out clothes and equipment for a family who were also present. The bundle packed by The Duchess was the 20,000th such package to be given out by the charity.

The Cambridge clan attended the Platinum Pageant on The Mall, marking the final event of the Jubilee weekend.
The Pageant tells the the story of The Queen’s 70-year reign and how society has transformed in that period.
Following the parade, the Cambridges, along with Prince Charles and The Duchess of Cornwall joined Her Majesty on the Buckingham Palace balcony to close the celebrations.
For today's festivities on The Mall, The Duchess wore a custom Stella McCartney dress in a vibrant fuchsia pink. It features an asymmetric fold across the bodice, cinching in at the waist before falling into a gently pleated skirt. The design is completed by shapely long sleeves.
Kate accessorized with the Queen's floral spray earrings, made with pink and blue sapphires, rubies and diamonds.
The earrings and matching brooch were gifted to the Queen by her parents King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in 1945 when she was 19 years old. Below is a photo of Her Majesty wearing the set while holding an infant Prince Charles.
