The Festival commemorates all those who have lost their lives in conflicts and it is usually attended by the Royal Family.  It is organized by the Royal British Legion and is held annually on the eve of Remembrance Sunday.

Kate wore a black Alexander McQueen coatdress in a familiar silhouette for the solemn event.

I personally believe it's the box-pleat coatdress she wore to Queen Elizabeth's funeral, but with the tonal buttons replaced by gold ones.

The photos below show that the pleat detail at the back is similar. I find it hard to believe this would be a new coat, given that buttons are very easy to interchange. ​

I think it's the same coat but different color.

The coat has 4 buttons on the sleeve and pocket on chest. So I think the type of dress is the same.

I too suspect it's a custom Alexander McQueen piece.

looks like it could possibly be Catherine Walker Alice coat dress? https://www.catherinewalker.com/alice-4/ Or could be another custom from Alexander Mcqueen? Excited she might be embracing the knee length dresses again though!

So wonderful to see the Princess, she looks well and engaging, marvellous to see. She looks stunning, in this coatdress. Her hair looks stunning. Love the pearl and diamond earrings, beautiful earrings. Her single pearl necklace is a lovely piece.

Princess Kate's elegant look at the Festival of Remembrance featured a timeless Alexander McQueen coatdress with thoughtful details like gold buttons, paired with accessories that honored tradition and family, including Princess Diana’s iconic earrings. A refined yet meaningful ensemble for the solemn occasion.
