17 Kate & William’s Matching Outfits

While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may be big fans of wearing coordinating outfits, Prince William and Kate Middleton tend to stay away from sporting the same color at the same time.

However, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have been seen in coordinating looks on a handful of occasions. Looking at the almost-matching outfits, it appears that the couple wants to send a message of unity and strength.

Here is a look at all the other times Prince William and Kate Middleton have worn similar looks.

For the occasion, Kate Middleton and Prince William chose to go with a matching look, she is in a Christopher Kane silk suit dress that she’s worn before, and he is in a blue silk vest that he’ll hopefully wear again if there’s any justice in this troubled world. Her head ornament was spun up by John Lock and Co. It’s the Duchess of Cambridge’s fifth year of the garden party, and she’s recycled her outfit at the event in the past as well.

Springtime ensembles, 2021

Easter Sunday in pastel blue, 2022

 

Prince William and Kate Middleton led the royals at Windsor Castle for the traditional Easter Sunday service. This year, George and Charlotte accompanied their parents to church. It’s rare to see the Cambridge children, so it’s a delightful surprise to see the eldest two attending their parents for the second time in weeks. The couple beamed!

The four family members wore color-coordinated outfits, something they often do at public events.

The Duchess looked seasonally appropriate in her all-blue ensemble. The pastel hue is perfect for Easter weekend and a lovely shade for spring! The piece features long sleeves, a waistband, a peak lapel, and a full skirt with large soft pleats. Kate finished her ensemble with a pair of Emmy London Rebecca pumps.

Kate Middleton’s fitted coat dress adorably matched the robin’s egg blue of her daughter’s dress. Charlotte wore a blue floral dress by Rachael Riley with a navy cardigan and tights.

While the Prince looked dapper in a double-breasted suit and bow tie, the Duchess of Cambridge once again stole the show – and this time in a dress that echoes her wedding gown no less.

From the waist up, this LLD (Long Lace Dress) is reminiscent of the Sarah Burton for McQueen wedding gown that the Duchess wore on April 29, 2011 – a dress that has undoubtedly gone down in history as one of the most iconic styles of all time.

And it’s clearly a style that Kate herself is comfortable with too – modest and demure in cut (N.B. the long-sleeves and delicate accessorizing) but on-trend and a little bit sexy in fabric.

The dress is crafted from French lace and finished with a removable velvet waist belt with a bow. The dress has bracelet-length sleeves, a keyhole closure on the back, and a nude-pink silk slip lining.

Pretties in purple, 2017

On the final day of the royal tour of Germany, Duchess Kate chose a fit and flare style lilac dress by British fashion favorite Emilia Wickstead, which appears to be a hue used in her AW15 collection. Unsurprisingly, she paired it with her signature nude pumps.

Princess Charlotte wore a pretty floral dress and red shoes, which Prince Harry first owned. The dress perfectly complimented her mother’s ensemble. William opted for a classic grey suit and purple tie.

Deep red tones, 2020

 

Kate arrived with her husband, Prince William, arrived at the Commonwealth Day services wearing an elegant deep-red coat by Catherine Walker, which she previously wore on Christmas Day in 2018.

The color of her Bennett dress matched Prince William’s tie.

Inspired by Ireland, 2020

Prince William and Kate Middleton embarked on their first official royal tour of Ireland from March 3 to March 5, 2020, just before the coronavirus pandemic and lockdown. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge attended multiple engagements across the Emerald Isle from Dublin to Galway.

With each appearance, Kate paid tribute to Ireland in many ways from wearing the colours of the Irish flag, to supporting local designers to sporting lucky shamrock jewelry! Prince William and Kate Middleton both incorporated green into their outfits. Prince William’s green tie coordinated perfectly with Middleton’s beautiful emerald Catherine Walker coat and printed Alessandra Rich dress.
