Kate wore a new cornflower blue belted fit-and-flare dress.  I believe it was a deliberate colour choice because the contrast of the blue against the yellow sofa, symbolizes the national colours of the Ukrainian flag!  There has been no confirmation regarding the designer of the frock.

It's been suggested it may be a bespoke Emilia Wickstead dress.  @RoyalWikipedia notes the belt design is similar to the Emilia Wickstead Rectangluar Buckle Belt and was seen in a custom colourway with the designer's 'Kate' dress which the Duchess debuted last November.

Kate also wore a new sapphire and diamond pendant necklace.

@allthingsroyal suggests the stones may originate from the Saudi sapphire suite which was a wedding gift to Prince Charles and Princess Diana from the Saudi Royal Family.

Below is a recollection of some the occasions the late Princess of Wales wore pieces from the parure.

The Duchess complemented the necklace with her beloved 'Diana' sapphire & diamond earrings.

I really like this dress on her. The closeup picture makes me think it may be a cashmere or similar knit dress which would make me like it even more

I always admire her stature and demure. She has the epitome of elegance and good taste in whatever she wears. She doesn't wear too much makeup compared to others. She looks lovely and elegant all the time.
