It appears Kate had the original crown motif buttons replaced with rhinestone buttons.

She also carried a coordinating Jimmy Choo 'Ellipse' clutch (US$995) which we are seeing for the first time.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge joined the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall for a visit to the Defence Medical Rehabilitation Centre (DMRC) Stanford Hall in Loughborough.
The state-of-the-art Ministry of Defence clinical rehabilitation facility, provides expert care and support for wounded, injured and sick Armed Forces personnel.
The Duchess choose a navy custom outfit by Alexander McQueen today, perhaps as a quite tribute on the 10 year anniversary of the fashion designer's death. The wool-blend separates appear to be based on a ready-to-wear set from Alexander McQueen's Pre-Fall '17 collection (ID by @HeavenQRF). 
The military-inspired peplum jacket in light wool silk is decorated with metal buttons on the waist and collar. It has a concealed button fastening on center front. Kate had the pleated midi skirt modified by removing the buttoned peplem detail.
The Duchess wore a similar silhouette in green for the 2019 St Patrick's Day parade.

On arrival, William and Kate visited the Mumbles Lifeboat Station. Lifeboat crews at The Mumbles have been saving lives for over 180 years and have been presented with 33 awards for gallantry. Then it was time for a tasty treat at Joe's Ice Cream. The Duke and Duchess sampled Italian ice cream at the family run parlour which has been serving gelato since Joe Cascarini arrived from Italy in the early 1900s.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the British Academy Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) awards ceremony this evening at Royal Albert Hall in London.
Prince William attended in his role as President of the Academy, a post he has held since 2010. The couple has attended the awards show every year since 2017. The BAFTA's dress code this year was focused on sustainability. The organization is working toward carbon neutrality and asked guests to consider wearing outfits that were either repeats, vintage, or from a sustainable fashion designer. The Duchess opted to repeat her bespoke Alexander McQueen gown first seen in Malaysia on the couple’s 2012 tour of Southeast Asia. The creamy-white gown features a sheer overlay sprinkled with a gold embroidered hibiscus floral motif. The gold lame embroidery also borders the short sleeves, scoop neckline, and runs down the center of the gown. Other elements include an empire waist, and a shirred white fabric at the bust.
Below is a look at the back of the dress.
It appears Kate had the sleeves altered. They are slimmer and no longer sheer compared to 2012. The Duchess accessorized the gown with new pieces. She carried an Anya Hindmarch 'Marano' Glitter-Finished Box Clutch (US$595).
On her feet were the Jimmy Choo 'Romy 100' pumps in Gold Glitter (US$725) - a style she also owns in silver glitter.
Kate complemented the gown with a new Van Cleef and Arpels Magic Alhambra set.
The Duchess wore the Van Cleef & Arpels Magic Alhambra Earrings with 2 Motifs (£5,400) and the Van Cleef & Arpels Magic Alhambra Necklace with 6 Motifs (£7,850).
Tonight we saw the return of Kate's mystery emerald-cut citrine ring which is believed to date back to 2008. She starting wearing it again in 2018 at Harry and Meghan's wedding.
