Kate debuted a print dress by her go-to designer, Alexander McQueen. (ID by @MiddletonMaven and @PerthsFashion).

The custom dress is based on the silhouette from McQueen’s AW16 collection in which creative director Sarah Burton explores the notion of the obsessive collector.

The ready-to-wear silk dress (US$2,995) is expertly tailored in Italy and is decorated with the 'Obsession' print – a whimsical assortment of trinkets, charms, butterflies and the signature McQueen skull.

The 'Obsession' print features heavily in this season's collection and is available in white, and black. You'll find it on blouses, scarfs, bags, and a range of dress silhouettes.

Unfortunately there are no high-resoultion full length photos of Kate so it's difficult to say which pair of shoes she wore with the outfit.

Such a nice day! I don't know where to start! #familjenborg #wimbledon #isabelmarant #rolex #dukeofcambridge #duchessofcambridge #bjornborg #goroyals

Kate, William and George enjoy a day out at the RAF Airshow

8/7/2016

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford
in Gloucestershire today, and they brought along a very special guest!

Prince George joined his parents at this family-orientated event, and prior to their visit Kensington Palace said: "The Duke and Duchess know that George will enjoy seeing the aircraft up close".

The Air Tattoo is the the world's largest military airshow and is held annually in support of the RAF Charitable Trust. The Duchess was present in her role as patron of the Air Cadets. This year the airshow will stage official celebrations marking the Air Cadets' 75th anniversary. Both she and the Duke met some of the Air Cadets during their visit.

For today's outing, the Duchess donned a familiar combination of her ultra-blue Stella McCartney 'Ridley' dress and navy Smythe single button blazer.

Kate has worn the pieces separately on many occasions and today was the third time she had paired this combination:

Jul 2014 - Commonwealth Games

Today
It was extremely windy at the airfield today so Kate popped on a leopard printed Alice band to keep her hair from whipping around her face. You may recall we first spotted Kate wearing the mystery headband at the Houghton International Horse trials in May.

On her feet were the modestly heeled LK Bennett 'Floret' nude leather pumps.

Kate's jewelry included her KIKI Lauren Yellow Gold Diamond Pave Leaf Earrings and Carteir watch.

There are so many delightful photos of the young royal family enjoying their time at the airshow. It's beyond the scope of this blog to cover all the details so I encourage you to check at more photos at Getty Images.

Prior to the match, the Duchess was greeted by the chairman of the All England Club, Philip Brook, at the players' entrance, before being introduced to staff and officials on the players' lawn.

Kate was easy to spot among the crowd in her sunshine yellow Roksanda 'Ryedale' dress. She first wore the colour-block dress for her official arrival into Australia during the 2014 royal tour.

Up until 2014, Kate traditionally wore white to Wimbledon, but over the past couple of years she has ditched the "tennis whites" in favour of bold patterns and colour.

@TheRoyalsAndI did an extensive search and found they are the Baroque Pearl Double Sided Earrings by Soru Jewellery (£130). The earrings are hand crafted with iridescent baroque pearls edged with multi faceted Swarovski crystals.

It was refreshing to see Kate carrying a full sized handbag today rather than one of her signature clutches.

The piece in a new addition to her closet and was identified by ‏@PackhamGown as the Victoria Beckham 'Quincy' tote (£995). It's a mini shopper-style tote rendered in moonshine white buffalo-leather with a contrasting calf-leather trim. It has a top looped tab fastening to adjust the shape.

 The Duchess also decided to premier a new pair of nude leather pumps. I initially thought they were her LK Bennett 'Fern' courts but Rebecca English ‏set me straight:

They are the Rupert Sanderson 'Malory' pumps in nude kid leather (sold out).
