I really this new winter grey dress, reminded me of her other two grey dresses that have a lot of detail & style it is called Orla Kiely Pleated Grey Daisy Dress that Kate wore Oct, 2015 & March, 2012. Another favorite is the Jesire Shawl grey/black Dress wore Feb, 2012. Both of these dresses have too much style and might have outshine the Queen, hopefully we will see Kate wear both of these dresses again, both are my favorites.

Kate's grey dress is the perfect complement to the Queen's pink outfit. They both look great!

I love this dress. I prefer the length of the outfit much better than some the Duchess has wore. The hat is prefect. Accessories look terrific, a polished look. Great post

Kate's outfit looks great. With or without the fascinator.

Good to have you back Elizabeth. Hope you are feeling much much better. :)

Welcome back Elizabeth, hope you are feeling better.
Lovely, elegant outfit from the Duchess of Cambridge. I loved how demur and almost sedate she looked beside the Queen. The Queen is the star. So lovely to see them together and enjoying their work.

Could it be based off this one?
In a different colour of course and with an additional belt.
