The Duchess looks lovely with her high ponytail for her final appearance on this Caribbean tour. The yellow/white colours in the dress fabric reflect a sun kissed look to Duchess Catherine.

One thinks of the Caribbean as colourful and flamboyant with a bit of va va voom. In this sense, the Alessandro Rich dress fits the Caribbean vibe. Is it over the top? A large bow at the neckline, wide ruffled collar, deep peplum, puff sleeves stitched onto buttoned armbands and a rhinestone studded belt buckle all contribute to the design. Until I saw this dress, I didn't think that all these features could make it into one garment. However, the colourful print lifts this dress and the Duchess wears it better than most women would. I guess one can say the dress is an appropriate acknowledgement to this colourful and vibrant part of the world.

The fabulous earrings work well with both the dress and the high ponytail. I'm becoming quite used to the Duchess wearing white shoes. I guess they are a Caribbean style too.

Unfortunately this outfit doesn't appeal to me, with a lot going on. Buckle, bow, ruffles, very busy pattern. Regardless of my thoughts the Duchess looks impeccably groomed.

This dress for me is a real miss. It is just too much of everything - pattern, peplum, puffy sleeves, bow, the intricate buttons and belt.

Perfect look, perfect Duchess Kate. Need we say more? William looked good and relaxed also. Glad they had a wonderful trip!

I have great respect and admiration for the Duchess of Cambridge - she is devoted, intelligent and thoughtful. She is inspirational, always looks immaculate and lovely. But when I look at the tour outfits I would have liked to have seen more repeats of things wore before since she was visiting countries who are experiencing the challenges of poverty.

This is my least favourite of all her outfits throughout the tour. There's just too much going on; the print, the puffed shoulders, the bow, the buttons, the peplum with the below the knee straight skirt. It's just too fussy and very 80s. Although Catherine's tall slender frame can carry it off better than most.

The outfit is the perfect finish to the Carribean tour. It is exactly in the spirit of the region. I actually thought it was bespoke, made for the occasion. Catherine always pays respect to whatever country she visits. Diplomatic and lovely
