KATE AT WIMBLEDON

The Duchess of Cambridge will attend the first day of the Wimbledon championships this coming Monday. It's always fun to speculate what Kate might wear for her visit to the Royal Box at the All England Club! Up until 2014, Kate traditionally wore white to Wimbledon - a homage to the players' dress code. But over the past few of years she has ditched the "tennis whites" in favour of bold patterns and colours.

2008 - Issa 'Lucky'

2011 - Temperley 'Moriah'

2012 - Alexander McQueen

2012 - Joseph 'Vanessa'

2014 - Zimmermann 'Roamer Day'

2014 - Jonathan Saunders 'Evelyn'

2015 - LK Bennett 'Cayla'

2016 - Roksanda 'Ryedale'

2016 - Alexander McQueen 'Obsession'
This year Kate will attend Wimbledon in her new role as Patron so I suspect we may see her back in white.  Here are some frocks the Duchess may consider from her favorite British brands and designers.

Dark green and purple are the traditional Wimbledon colours, and I would love to see Kate incorporate these hues in her outfit.

For some of her past appearances at Wimbledon, Kate has recycled dresses she debuted on royal tours. I think her green Dolce & Gabbana dress from last year's Canadian tour would be a perfect choice for a day in the Royal Box!

BRAND BROWSING

Each week I like to devote a little time browsing the websites of Kate's favourite brands and designers. This week's designer debut of Gucci had me excited to check out the latest styles from the Italian luxury brand. Here are some Duchess-worthy picks from the current collection:

Her Wimbledon outfits are some of my favorites! The Lucky, the Moriah, and last year's McQueen. Thanks for the photos, and I love some of your ideas.
