Kate has a berry Christmas with the Royal Family

25/12/2018

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge celebrated Christmas with the Royal Family at Sandringham and started their day by attending the traditional Christmas service at St.  Mary Magadelene's Church on the Queen's estate.

The couple joined the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and other members of the royal family for the traditional walk to the church.

Kate looked rather festive once again for this year’s service wearing a berry red custom coat by Catherine Walker.

The design elements of the coat are similar to the forest green coat she owns from the label, including the double-breasted front, contrast velvet collar, cuffs and flap pockets. Besides the colour, the only notable difference is the longer length.

The Duchess wore a new custom headpiece from Jane Taylor. It is the burgundy 'Halo Band' (£830) with a contrasting bow at the back. The vintage inspired headband is from the milliners A/W 218 collection.

Thanks for sharing her last looks...how fun!! She always looks so festive and appropriate. I think the plaids and the fur collar are my favorites.

I like the color and fit of this coat though it isn’t my personal taste. She actually seems to plan her wardrobe in advance and considers the occasion and attendees. Maybe she is just more used to the position...but she just exudes grace in these situations especially when next to Megan who seems unsure, hanging on Harry, fidgety and constantly eyeing the camera. Kate just gets on with it.

These headbands have got to go. At first I thought she was just going to wear them a couple times but now it seems to be a thing for her...and I personally don’t like them at all. They seem too clunky and almost childlike in some instances.

Stunning and perfectly stylish as always! Love your ‘fashion flashback’ showing all of Kate’s Christmas outfits, they’re so classy and every look would be as fabulous now as it was then! Also love the interesting hat design which suits her beautiful hair and the bow gloves are a lovely accessory.
Best wishes for 2019 and look forward to continuing to enjoy your fantastic royal fashion coverage!

The Duchess looks beautiful. Loved her coat. I really liked the green when she was first seen it, gorgeous. She looks really festive in the red colour. Her accessories spot, only thing I don't go for is the headband, obviously personal preference. She carries herself well. I have to say the Queen looked so lovely in her outfit, the colour and style, she looked stunning, how lovely is her complexion, what an amazing lady! Thank you for the post and the past xmas outfits interesting to see how the Duchess is transforming.

Agree...The Queen outshone them all..she looked just lovely. I also thought Eugenie’s coat was so festive and appropriate. She has really stepped up her style game since her wedding.

I love this look on Kate. She knows what suits her best and sticks to her classic style. Why change a winning formula?! I l like the slightly mismatched reds, I love the retro headbands she's been wearing of late and I love the overall impression which is of an elegant, confident woman who knows she's doing a great job and is loved by millions.
Happy New Year Elizabeth and thank you for all the work that goes into your great blogs.

Kate looks really good. Not just for the occasion. She looks really good, head to toe. And she looks very happy. Perfect Kate!

Could these be the gloves: M&Co Bow Detail Burgundy Red Fleece Gloves

That is a fabulous suggestion Isa! However, I think the fabric is different and Kate's bow appears a little bigger.
