What Kate Middleton wore in Sweden – a rundown of Duchess of Cambridge’s looks during tour with Prince William
Long before Meghan Markle arrived on the block and everyone wanted that Marks & Spencer jumper or her Stella McCartney coat, Kate Middleton was setting the style barometer.
And during her official tour of Sweden with husband Prince William, Kate has oozed fashionista appeal, wearing an array of enviable outfits from cosy comfort wear to sleek and daring gowns.
The royal couple arrived in Sweden on Monday night, kick-starting their four-day tour of Scandinavia on Tuesday.
Their tour will see them visit Stockholm, Sweden before traveling to Oslo, Norway later in the week and then heading back to London on Friday.
Here’s a rundown of what Kate has worn for their tour so far:
Day 1 – outfit 1
Kate dressed for the chilly weather on Tuesday morning – the first full day of their tour in Sweden – in a cosy winter outfit.
She joined Prince William at Vasaparken – an outdoor ice-skating venue in the centre of Stockholm – for a game of Bandy, which is one of the country’s most-loved winter sports.
Decked out head-to-toe in warm winter gear, Kate opted for a warm, double-breasted, 100% lambskin Burberry black coat. It costs £2,200 but it’s sold out now anyway, having been a fall/winter 2016 piece.
She then went for a Rain Wool Hand-Knit Beanie hat by Eugenia Kim in charcoal colour – but rather than the designer’s original fox fur design, it is faux fur. This is also still available online, costing £202.
Her purple snood was by Brora in a bordeaux colour and is still available online at £89.
Kate’s boots were Sorel’s Torino boots, which featured a suede upper and were sure to keep her well-protected on the ice. They cost between £84 and £120 and are still available now.
Day 1 – outfit 2
Kate and William later headed for lunch at the Royal Palace of Stockholm with King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia, also joined by Crown Princess Victoria and husband Prince Daniel.
For this, Kate wore a Caroline Walker green dress. The dress doesn’t appear to be on the website, which suggests it is a previous design or it has not yet come been released on sale.
She was also spotted wearing her green amethyst Kiki McDonough drop earrings, which are believed to have been gifted to her when Princess Charlotte was born.
Day 1 – outfit 3
As Kate and Wills later enjoyed a walk in Stockholm, Kate ensured she wrapped up in a striking green coat, which is also understood to be Catherine Walker.
And she took out with her a new Mulberry bag – their £895 small classic grain design in black.
Day 1 – outfit 4
In the evening, Kate and William headed to a special black tie dinner at the Residence of the British Ambassador, also attended by members of the Swedish Royal Family, Prime Minister Stefan Lofven, Stellan Skarsgård and Alicia Vikander.
She wore a bold mustard-coloured Erdem dress, which will set you back around £1945 if you want to emulate her style. Kate’s a long-time fan of the London-based designer.
The pregnant Duchess also wore a pair of stunning drop pearl earrings, gifted to her from Prince William who obtained them from his late mother, Diana, Princess Of Wales’ jewellery collection.
Day 2 – outfit 1
For the second day of their Swedish trip, Kate opted for another design from Catherine Walker – a red and white houndstooth coat.
She was also spotted wearing burgundy heels from Tod’s and a burgundy calfskin Chanel bag, which were a stylish match for her coat.
Her earrings were by In2Design, a Swedish jewellery designer.
