Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge was out Thursday (November 7), looking as immaculate as ever as attending the launch of the National Emergencies Trust (NET), which is an independent charity that will provide an emergency response to disasters in the UK.
The windswept Duchess was looking very royal in royal blue wearing a belted dress by Emilia Wickstead, which is a brand new dress for Catherine for this new season.
Usually Catherine matches her dress to her accessories, but on this occasion she opted for black Jimmy Choo ‘Romy’ pumps and Aspinal x Beulah Blue Heart clutch.
What did match her dress was her sapphire drop earrings that match her engagement ring, which previously belonged to her late mother-in-law Princess Diana.
Eagle-eyed Royal fans noticed how Catherine has altered the earrings by removing diamonds.

This is classic Kate and that’s what is boring to me. This is very beautiful but it stays… just classic. Beautiful colour, the styling is meh, I was excited lately but this is far from being one of my favourites.
Too simple IMO.
Yes – the color is good, the fit is great, I don’t even mind the accessories, but this could have easily been H&M dress on a regular person in the street on a daily basis.
I expect a bit more from a royal at formal events.
However, still happy that it’s not a coat dress. 🙂
This is such a lovely look for her. She knows what works and the fit as always is impeccable.
She knows what works on her. Kate looks lovely and I have major hair envy.
As someone with thin dead straight hair – I completely agree!!
It’s classic Kate, polished and event appropriate if a bit same-y.
There was a thread in a forum I was just on, where they showed how many dresses Kate has in this color that look almost exactly like this, it had to be 8 or 10!
I think she knows what’s looks good on her and what looks appropriate for her position and is sticking to it. I wish she’d worn her hair away from her poppy so you could see it but otherwise she looks great
Yep. I went back in the archives before posting to see if it was a repeat, and this Eponine dress is the same colour.

She might as well have just worn a repeat. Save money, make it a conversation point.
Perfect dress for her. She looks terrific. Great fit.
The shoes are meh but overall, this is a win!
She looks great. I am not crazy about the black shoes and clutch but that is minor. Impeccable fit + Gorgeous hair + Nice makeup = A Win.
She’s staying away from coat dresses, which is a win. Love the colour. She looks classy and professional as usual.
Agreed, they age her
she looks great as usual, simple and professional
I love this shade of blue on her!
i’m not a big fan of the black accessories though
I would have preferred matching blue shoes and clutch than black and less of a blow out hair but she looks good overall and event appropriate as always.
Very nice. Emilia Wickstead is a good designer for her, as is Erdem, and even Huishan Zhang.
