The silhouette is similar to the Christopher Kane ice blue sateen coat she premiered at the London Olympics Opening Ceremony.

Kate teamed the coat with a black turtleneck knit top and a matching Christopher Kane kilt-style skirt made of the same fabric as the coat.

Kate accessorized with familiar items including her Aquatalia by Marvin K. Black 'Rhumba' boots.
