The Wales family celebrated Christmas with the Royal Family at Sandringham and started their day by attending the traditional service at St. Mary Magadelene's Church.
It is the first Christmas King Charles III has hosted the Royal Family’s traditional gathering at the Norfolk estate since the death of his mother, Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
In another first, Prince Louis joined his parents and older siblings for the walk to the church on the King's estate.
Following the yuletide service, the royals chatted with well-wishers who had gathered outside the church to catch a glimpse of the royal family.
The Princes of Wales rugged up in her green Alexander McQueen coat. It's a bespoke piece she has worn on a few occasions since she debuted it in January 2020 for an away-day in Bradford.
Beneath the coat, Kate appeared to have on the Mango 'Flurry' Ribbed Knit Midi Dress that was first worn in November.
Kate coordinated the look with a new custom hat by Philip Treacy. The broad-brimmed design is similar to a style seen in the milliner's AW 20 collection.
She also accessorized with new earrings. They are the Sezane 'Dina' Earrings in Ocean Blue ($130).
On her feet were her custom brown suede Gianvito Rossi Block Heel Boots.
The princess wore dark brown leather gloves and carried her Stuart Weitzman 'Muse' clutch in chocolate brown suede.
The gloves appear to date back to at least 2011 when Kate wore them for her first official royal engagement in Anglesey.

The Princess of Wales had a surprise engagement on Tuesday. She visited Westminster Abbey to dedicate a tree in Dean’s Yard to mark the memory of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The tree is a wild cherry tree (Prunus avium Plena) from the estate of the Duchy of Cornwall. The Princess shovelled the last spadefuls of earth on to the tree and unveiled by a plaque which reads:

Princess Kate looks festive in burgundy Eponine coat for 'Together at Christmas' carol service15/12/2022
The Princess of Wales hosted the second 'Together at Christmas' carol service at Westminster Abbey on Thursday night, supported by The Royal Foundation.
This evening's service celebrated those who have gone above and beyond in their communities and also payed tribute to Her Late Majesty The Queen.
The Princess was joined by her husband, Prince William and her two eldest children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
King Charles III and Camilla, Queen Consort also joined in the celebration along with the extended royal family.
Also in attendance were Kate's parents and siblings.
The event was filmed for broadcast and will be aired by ITV on Christmas Eve.
Kate opted for a déjà vu debut this evening, wearing an Eponine London midi coat in burgundy.
You may recall the Princess also owns this SS20 design in cobalt blue which she first wore for the COP26 reception in November 2021.
Slight modifications were made to the original design. The new coat has full sleeves and the pleat details at the shoulders and waist have been replaced with princess seams.
The burgundy coat has tabs at the waist with gold trim tonal buttons on the front and back.
Kate carried a new burgundy croc-embossed clutch and her bow detail gloves.
It's suggested the handbag could be the Aspinal of London 'Mayfair' Clutch, and the gloves may be the M&Co bow detail fleece gloves.
The Princess added a touch of bling with a new pair of dangle earrings. They are the Accessorize Eclectic Gem Statement Long Drop Earrings (£14.00) featuring a mix of berry toned glass stones. ID by UFO No More.
