The Princess concluded her visit at Pulborough Village Hall, where the weekly lunch club offers a welcoming space for people from across the local community to come together, socialise and enjoy activities.

For the occasion, Kate opted for a polished yet practical outfit, pairing classic tailoring with relaxed separates.

I initially thought Kate wore her Gianvito Rossi ‘Piper’ 85 pumps in black suede, but upon closer inspection, they appear to be leather instead. With no clear photos of the shoes, an accurate identification isn’t possible.

The special screening at the Odeon Luxe in Leicester Square supports the Film and TV Charity, which provides vital assistance to people working across the UK’s film and television industries.

The Prince and Princess met with members of the film’s cast and creative team, as well as producers and Warner Bros. executives.
Embed from Getty Images
The couple also spent time chatting with the film’s leading man, Tom Cruise, before making their way inside for the screening.​
Embed from Getty Images
For the premiere, the Princess stepped out in an elegant evening ensemble, debuting a striking Jenny Packham pleated silk-chiffon gown.
Embed from Getty Images
The floor-length design features delicate pleating throughout, creating a soft, flowing silhouette. At the back, the gown was finished with a graceful train, while billowing long sleeves added to its fluid movement.
Embed from Getty Images
The gown is from Jenny Packham’s Fall 2016 ready-to-wear collection and is presented in a rich purple hue described by the designer as “Grape.” The original design featured cut-out bishop sleeves, which were modified for the Princess with the openings closed for a more modest finish.

The gala-worthy gown was complemented by an equally striking piece of jewellery, with the Princess selecting the piece known as the Queen Mother’s Amethyst Necklace.
Embed from Getty Images
The necklace was a wedding gift to Lady Elizabeth Bowes Lyon, later known as the Queen Mother, from Queen Alexandra upon her marriage to the Duke of York in 1923. It was not publicly worn, however, until almost 90 years later, when Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, wore it to the Skyfall premiere in 2012.

This royal heirloom combines rows of seed pearls with round amethysts and a
large heart-shaped amethyst pendant surrounded by diamonds.

With Kate's hair partially pulled back, the Collingwood Diamond & Pearl Drop Earrings were beautifully showcased.

On Thursday, the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay—the titles used by the Prince and Princess of Wales in Scotland—visited Rothesay on the Isle of Bute, marking their first official visit to the Scottish island.​

The visit focused on community, volunteering and the environment. Their first engagement was at Bute Shinty and Amateur Athletic Club, where they met local players and volunteers and tried their hand at the traditional Scottish sport of shinty.

They then travelled to Ettrick Bay, where they joined volunteers from Beachwatch Bute for a beach clean-up, helping to remove litter from the shoreline.

For the visit, the Princess embraced a practical autumnal look, centred around a new Burberry trench coat in dark brown.

It appears to be crafted from cotton gabardine, although the exact style remains unidentified and does not appear in Burberry’s current collection. The closest silhouette is the brand’s long 'Kensington' trench, available in black, beige and navy.

There is also a cashmere version of the Kensington, which more closely matches the length of Kate’s coat.

Beneath it, she wore a new Really Wild Cashmere Ribbed Rollneck Sweater in Loden ​ - a style she also owns in black.

Kate paired it with her Holland Cooper’s ‘Jodhpur’ Jeans in Chocolate.

A statement Maison Hotel 'Guadalupe' belt added contrast to the tonal ensemble. It's designed in rich jacquard with an intricate floral motif in a brown leather base and finished with a brushed silver buckle.
