This morning, members of the royal family gathered for the annual Remembrance Sunday commemorations at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London. The Duchess of Cambridge attended the ceremony and watched the service from the Foreign Office central balcony alongside Her Majesty the Queen, and Camila, The Duchess of Cornwall.
Catherine debuted a bespoke piece from her go-to designer Catherine Walker. Cut with a high point collar and zip-up front, the tailored design incorporates military-inspired details.
The Duchess donned a new black Philip Treacy velvet hat with veil. We saw the return of the Bahrain Pearl Drop Earrings, on loan from Queen Elizabeth II's royal jewellery collection. Kate finished the look with a new poppy brooch in support of the Royal British Legion. It is The Codebreakers Brooch (£29.99) - a tribute to the work of those in signal intelligence. The piece is inspired by the rotors of the Enigma machines, from which Allied cryptologists successfully decrypted a vast number of enemy messages during WWII. Kate's paternal grandmother, Miss Valerie Glassborow worked as a code-breaker during the war.
A view of Kate's elegant chignon.
Below is a look back at Kate's past outfits for this annual memorial event.

This is how you do bespoke...do something no one else has. Love this coat...I love how it is military inspired. I like the netting on the hat but could do without the squiggles.

It's because of rank. She is allowed to wear things, she just doesn't have access to all of it like Catherine does and even then, there's things she isn't allowed to wear that Camilla is. It comes down to that Catherine will always outrank Meghan, Meghan will never have the same access as her sister in law.

Kate looks exceptionally beautiful in this ensemble, the coat, hat, and especially the hair! The earrings are lovely, and the code-breakers brooch is a perfect addition to honor her family history.

This is a great look, the poppy is perfect for her family, and her hair is beautiful. I even like the swirls on the hat, it does tie in with the jacket. But the 2015 McQueen look is still my favorite- I love that coat!

The Duchess looks superb, beautifully groomed. The coat is exquisite, love the theme for the solemn occasion. Black velvet hat is striking, netting gives the perfect balance, just enough. Up do is classic and elegant, the view from the back is perfection. Love the pearl drop earrings, a stunning set, finish's the outfit off wonderfully.

She looks so poise and gorgeous. Af first I didn’t like the coat but it different and I started to like it. I think that all the pieces from her outfit go well together.

It’s been corrected now by daily mail that the coat is Catehrine Walker not Alexander McQueen
