Another fine offering from McQueen with all its typical finish, but I'm not sure the style is the best pick for Kate. The reinforced shoulders only exaggerate the inverted triangle shape Kate' already suffers from and might be best advised to avoid. Obviously it's current fashion and Kate has too much discretion to go overboard, but it's a shame how loose the resulting full bodice becomes around the waist. While I don't know if it would be improved by leaving the belt off, as per the studio shots, the effect of pulling fabric in is to look ill-fitting, as if Kate is thin rather than healthily slender.

I love the accessories, the pale nude works well with bright fuschia. The LKB Milly bag is just cute and the Sanderson pumps continue to give good service. At the heart of it all, Kate remains as beautiful as ever.

I have to agree with Bertie. Kate is a beautiful woman but for some reasons several times she does not pick what flatters her figure best. I appreciate she prefers a rather classic sense of fashion, but with that wonderful body it is a pity

Raspberry pink - this is a fabulous colour and the Duchess of Cambridge wears it so well. It reminds me of the beautiful paperbag style dress she wore to Princess Eugenie's wedding. Both dresses have a similar neckline and come from the same design company.

The simple shift style and short sleeves make it en pointe for a summer's day meeting. It's good to see the bold fuschsia pink jacket of FLOTUS Dr Jill Biden alongside this raspberry colour. Both women stand out. I really like the FLOTUS' shoes. The Duchess has a super cute new bag.

What a great idea to have these two women meet at a combined event to discuss their similar visions for the importance of early childhood development.

I thought the dress looked lovely on Kate, I loved the belt, the pleating at the neckline and the colour. The accessories were perfect.
