William and Kate then headed to Áras an Uachtaráin for an official welcome to Ireland from President Michael D. Higgins and Mrs Higgins.
... and from Bród the Bernese Mountain Dog! Following the meeting, the Duke and Duchess had a moment of reflection at the Garden of Remembrance in Dublin city centre, which is dedicated to those who gave their lives for Irish independence.

This is a very polished outfit with more than a subtle acknowledgement to her hosts. The pairing of bright and dark greens in the accessories lifts this to a memorable outfit. Duchess Kate looks stunning when she enters Áras an Uachtaráin as you see this very pretty dress with its pleated peplum in its entirety. The bright colour of the clutch is on point. Not many women could wear that peplum so well.

Yes, I saw someone claiming it was by Zara: https://www.zara.com/us/en/velvet-headband-p03920210.html

This outfit is beautiful, I love the way the shades of green come together. I love to see Kate wearing a headpiece again! Also, could you expand the hats/headbands section? Thanks!

A beautiful, elegant outfit. Love the double breasted coat, it fits and flows superbly, the addition of the buttons on point, the shade of green is glorious. A nice change to the military theme. The silk Peplum dress suits the Duchess perfectly, with her height it looks simply marvellous. The colour of the suede clutch and choice of shoes is excellent. Oh, those daisy diamond earrings are just divine. I am not a fan of headbands, but the Duchess's hair looks great this length.

without the coat I don’t like the outfit. The dress is so overwhelming in my opinion. I usually love everything she wears but this dress I just don’t like it. I do love the coat and earrings and obviously she still gorgeous even with the ugly dress.

Outfit is ok. Not terribly exciting. I love the big dog though! So fluffy and cute!

I have great respect for the Duchess of Cambridge. Her choice to wear the colour green for their first day in Ireland is very thoughtful and respectful. She takes her duty very seriously.

I don’t like the dress at all. The coat is beautiful. The dress is hideous. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
