Kensington Palace has introduced the first of a series of telephone calls that The Duchess of Cambridge held with participants from the Hold Still project.
‘Shielding Mila’ is the first of a series of telephone calls shared via The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's new YouTube channel.
The calls, which took place last autumn saw Catherine speak to a number of the 100 finalists who shared their experiences of life during the first COVID-19 lockdown in the UK by submitting an image to Hold Still.
In the clip, Kate is seen wearing the Whistles blouse she wore for her official engagement photos taken by celebrity photographer Mario Testino at St James's Palace, London, in November 2010.
The Whistles 'Kate' blouse (shown below) is a reissue of the shirt Kate wore for the engagement photo shoot.
Unfortunately a stock photo of the original blouse is not available. Both designs feature a frill detail at the centre front finished with an eyelash trim. Kate's blouse has a collar, button placket and sheer sleeves, whereas the reissued style features a grandad collar, a concealed button placket and solid sleeves. A better picture of the original blouse by Whistles can be seen on Pippa Middleton.
Kate offset the light romantic blouse with her navy Jigsaw High Waisted Sport Luxe Trousers.
The Duchess finished the look with the 'Silver Jubilee' pearl and diamond earrings on loan from Queen Elizabeth II.
