The Duchess of Cambridge returned to the Royal Box at the All England Club today having attended the women's finals yesterday with the Duchess of Sussex. Today she was joined by her husband Prince William to watch the men's finals clash between Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic.
The Duchess stepped out in a beautiful baby blue seersucker frock by Emilia Wickstead.
It is the 'Jordin' dress (£605) as featured on the designer's Spring '19 runway. It has a straight neckline, twisted strap detail and pleated midi skirt. IDed by @Clouringtheclo1.
Kate teamed it with a new pair of ALDO'Nicholes' bone suede block heel pumps (US$80). They are available at ALDO, Amazon, and Zappos. IDed by @Japanese_Ginger.
We saw the return of the beaded clutch first seen at a Buckingham Palace garden party in 2017.
@LadyParky79 thinks it could be a vintage piece by Josef. The colors and intricate beaded pattern are a good match in my opinion. There are a number of vintage Josef beaded bags available on Etsy.
Other familiar accessories included her In2Design Baroque Pearl Drop Earrings and Cartier Ballon Bleu Watch.
The Duchess also brought back the Ray-Bay Wayfarer II Classic in tortoise with brown polarized lens first seen on Day 2 of the Wimbledon championships.
The bow pinned to Kate's dress in the official colours of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club - dark green and purple, is given to members of the club.

The Duchess of Cambridge attended the Wimbledon Ladies’ Singles Final today. Ahead of today's match, Kate met junior players at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in her role as patron of the club.
She was later joined on centre court by the Duchess of Sussex and her sister Pippa to watch the clash between Serena Williams and Simona Halep. Kate wore her modified green Dolce & Gabbana crêpe midi dress first seen during the 2016 Canadian royal tour.
She carried her Dolce & Gabbana Rose 'Sicily' Bag.
On her feet Kate wore her nude Rupert Sanderson 'Malory' Kid Leather Pumps.
The Duchess accessorized with her Asprey London Oak Leaf Small Hoop Earrings.
She also wore her Ray-Bay Wayfarer II Classic in tortoise with brown polarized lens.
We got a royal treat today! The Duchess of Cambridge made a surprise appearance at the Billingbear Polo Club in Surrey with her three adorable children.
The Cambridges were joined by Meghan and baby Archie on the sidelines to watch Prince William and Prince Harry go head-to-head in the King Power Royal Charity Polo Day for the Khun Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha Memorial Polo Trophy. The charity match helped raise funds and awareness for charities supported by the princes.
KATE'S OUTFIT
DRESS: L.K. Bennett Silk 'Madison' Dress in pink (£325).
EARRINGS: Catherine Zoraida Gold Fern Hoop Earrings.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended the intimate christening of their nephew, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor in the Private Chapel at Windsor Castle on Saturday. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared an official family portrait from their son's special day.
In the photo we see Kate wore her salmon pink Stella McCartney pussy bow dress most recently seen at the Queen's 2018 Pre-Christmas luncheon.
As noted then, the details look very similar to the Stella McCartney dress she wore to Prince Philip's 90th birthday dinner in June 2011, however the fabric does not have the same sheen.
What Kate Wore notes that the pleats and hemline also appear to have a crisper finish compared to the satin dress worn in 2011. The consensus is the dress is the same style but rendered in a matte fabric.
Kate's headwear is a piece by Juliette Botterill Millinery which appears to have been modified into a headband. The original straw pillbox hat (£450) has a silk abaca pleated detail edging.
UPDATE: Juliette Botterill released the silk abaca plaited band in her AW19 collection with a retail price of £340.
She coordinated the hat with her red suede Gianvito Rossi pumps.
The Duchess finished the outfit with a tribute to Princess Diana. She wore the Collingwood pearl and diamond drop earrings which are believed to have been the same ones Diana wore for Prince Harry's Christening in 1984.

The Duchess of Cambridge, Patron of Wimbledon made her first appearance of the 2019 Championships today.
Kate sported a new white shirt dress for the outing at The All England Club.
It is the 'Flippy Wiggle' dress (£1,850) from British designer Suzannah. Made in London, the design of the dress derives inspiration from a late 1940’s Wiggle Dress, which Suzannah have re-cut to have a skimming fit over the bodice and fluid gentle soft movement throughout the skirt hemline. The silhouette is contoured around the waist with delicate pin-tucks and a matching belt. Pin-tucks are also placed at the front yoke detail. The tea-length dress is fashioned with contrasting silk covered buttons, and half sleeves with buttoned cuff. The dress is made from Italian silk crepe and is lined throughout the bodice and skirt in lightweight silk habotai.
The Duchess replaced the dress belt with a contrasting black Alexander McQueen bow-front leather waist belt.
I initially thought it was the same one she wore with her black tweed Alexander McQueen dress in Paris during the 2017 visit, however British Royal Fashion Data points out that they are different.
She offset the monochrome outfit with a new two-tone bag.
It is the Alexander McQueen 'Wicca' mini satchel featuring a raffia body and black leather trim. ID by @ufonomore.
On her feet Kate wore her black Gianvito Rossi 'Piper' 85 suede pumps.
The Duchess donned a new pair of Ray-Bay Wayfarer II Classic sunglasses in tortoise with brown polarized lens (US$203). ID by @ufonomore.
We saw the return of the mystery citrine ring which is believed to date back to 2008.
Kate finished the look with her Catherine Zoraida Gold Fern Hoop Earrings.
We now know the secret to Kate's luscious lips! She uses Clarins Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector Lip Gloss (US$26). It is a softly textured lip gel with a deliciously sweet scent and 3D shimmer. It's sheer, but shaded enough to wear alone or to complement your favorite lip shade. You can find a list of Kate's favourite beauty products here.
You gotta love Kate's facial expressions at Wimbledon :)
The bow pinned to Kate's dress in the official colours of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club - dark green and purple, is given to members of the club.
Following the success at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, The Duchess of Cambridge's 'Back to Nature' Garden has moved to RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival for July.
The garden got a few new additions for the installation including a rolling hill, bug hotel, hidden burrow and bee-friendly wildflower meadow.
Kate invited children and their families/carers from her patronages to a picnic in the garden this afternoon.
The Duchess debuted a green printed dress by Sandro Paris, which is a new brand in her closet. Sandro is a Paris-based label loved by French fashionistas whose designs combine the essence of cool and chic Parisian spirit, and the French effortless elegance with a unique twist.
The Sandro printed flowing midi dress (£260) has short-sleeves and a defined waist with pleats and covered buttons. It is made from 100% polyester. The frock is available in limited sizes at Harrods for £182.
The geometric pattern can also be found on the brand's Patchwork Printed Long Dress and Short Printed Silk Dress.
Kate wore her go-to shoe of the season - the brown suede Casteñer 'Carina' 80 espadrille wedges.
She finished the look with her Accessorize Polly Petal Drop Earrings.
