The Princess of Wales updated a Catherine Walker design for today’s Remembrance Sunday ceremony. 
Veterans, escorts, and others participating in the parade gather at Horse Guards Parade before the ceremony.
In this shot, you can see everyone forming up for the march.

At 11 am, the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery fired a gun from Horse Guards Parade to begin the two-minute silence. 
The King then laid the first wreath at the foot of the Cenotaph.

He was followed by the Queen’s Equerry, who laid a wreath on her behalf. The Prince of Wales then laid his wreath. 
The Prince wore his RAF uniform in the rank of Wing Commander with a greatcoat, poppy, and sword.
Here you see the three wreaths. The King’s wreath in the center-top position was similar to those laid by his grandfather, King George VI, with poppies mounted on black leaves (considered the traditional Sovereign’s style) and a ribbon featuring his racing colors of scarlet, purple, and gold. The Queen’s wreath was made by the Poppy Factory and was inspired by the style favored by the late Queen Mother. 
Prince William’s wreath featured the Prince of Wales feathers and a ribbon in Welsh red. 
The card, signed by both the Prince and Princess, read, “In memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice, we will remember them.”

A wreath was also laid on behalf of the Duke of Kent. The Telegraph reports, “The Duke holds 10 military appointments and has served as Royal Honorary Colonel of The Royal Wessex Yeomanry for more than 20 years. He is also Colonel of the Scots Guards, Colonel of the London Guards, and Colonel in Chief of The Royal Dragoon Guards and The Queen’s Royal Hussars.”

The sea of wreaths placed at the Cenotaph. 
Then it was time for the march-past. We learn more from The Telegraph’s coverage.
Politicians and members of the royal family in attendance at the service departed after laying wreaths so thousands of veterans could begin their march past the monument in central London.
More than 10,000 veterans marched in today’s parade, including some of the last surviving World War II veterans: Mervyn Kersh, Jim Grant, and Henry Rice, shown below. 
I believe these are two other veterans of the Second World War. The gentleman with the poppy wreath is Kenneth Embleton, 101, a Royal Signals veteran who served with the 14th Army in Burma.
More about Mr. Embleton from this Times and Star piece.
It was a first trip to the Cenotaph for Remembrance Sunday for Kenneth Embleton, 101, who served with the Queen’s Royal Regiment and later the Royal Corps of Signals, leading a Punjabi unit in Burma before flying to Malaya to take part in its reoccupation.
Mr Embleton, who lives in Wellington in Somerset, said: “It’s all been very marvellous and I feel humbled about it because I do wonder if the general population still knows about us.
“I got quite moved to see them all clapping, I had a few tears… the service hits you right in the heart.”
Here you see Mr. Embleton at Horse Guards Parade ahead of today’s ceremony.

More from The Telegraph’s story.
At about 11.45am, the Royal British Legion began a march-past. The crowds lining the streets of Whitehall applauded as participants, aged from 101 to eight and accompanied by music played by the Massed Bands of the Household Division and the combined bands of the Royal Marines and Royal Air Force, proudly walked by.
This gives you a better sense of the vast number of veterans and those watching the march-past. 
Estimates put the crowd watching today’s ceremony at more than 10,000.

Fortunately, this year the weather cooperated with sunshine and temperatures in the upper 50s. 
More than 300 military and civilian organisations were represented in this year’s march. Below, members of the Royal Scots Regimental Association.

And now for our look at what the Princess of Wales wore. 
The Princess repeated her Catherine Walker ‘Evie’ Coat with changes at the neckline: a pleated or pie-crust collar and a black lace jabot. Below, the original Evie style as shown at Catherine Walker, in berry and ivory. The military-style coatdress features diagonal pintuck details across the chest and shoulder. 
Here you see the Princess wearing the style for Remembrance Sunday in 2022. It’s difficult to see the details in this year’s photo, because the lighting is darker. My guess is that the pleated collar is not an addition affixed to the coat, but a top or dress worn beneath it, and the jabot was added on top of that. 
The Princess debuted a new hat today by Lock and Co. Hatters—the firm’s Belvedere Percher style ($ 1,419), shown here in beige. It is described as being “Crafted from soft velour felt, this pale beige percher is exquisitely shaped and elevated by a bold 3D ridged ribbon trim that wraps gracefully from front to back, creating a striking silhouette from every angle.” It is also offered in burgundy and bottle green. The black worn by the Princess is not shown on the site. Thank you to Gabi for this ID!
The Princess wore her hair partially pulled back. 
She may have carried her black Chanel Quilted Waller on a Chain bag, a portion of which is just visible in a few of today’s photos. 
The Princess brought back the Lock & Co. poppy she wore last night; the second photo is from Lock & Co. Hatters, offering a better view of the item. (There is more information in last night’s post.) She also wore her Royal Air Force pin and the Collingwood pearl-and-diamond earrings that initially belonged to Diana, Princess of Wales. They were a wedding gift to Diana in 1981.
I will see you on Tuesday when the Princess leads Armistice Day services at the National Memorial Arboretum. Here is one more photo from today.

I am glad to read all the comments and think about the different opinions. I'm stuck on the idea that, as of late, Catherine's fashion choices are not well edited. Each component is beautiful, but the over all look is not harmonious. Catherine is still enthusiastic, engaged and hard working. She is an asset to the Crown and that is the most important thing.

Another miss for me. I really wish she would shorten her hair, it's starting to look rather messy. The lace jabot is distracting, the coat doesn't need any adornments.

@Faith Poole, I agree about the hair. I think Catherine is beautiful, but her hair is far too long and it drags her downwards. She could do with chopping off a good six to eight inches and still be able to put it in an updo.

I agree. The hair is just too long and really doesn't do justice to her beautiful face. The lace jabot is confusing....

The coat is just lovely and I appreciate, that Kate didn`t buy another black one, but chose a repeat! Great! But that jabot ..... it`s so difficult to understand, that I think, there must be a (health related?) reason for her to wear it. I mean I don`t care for the hat. But I can see, that this is a matter of taste... the jabot on the other hand is...well?!

Most of us, like you, Renate, are confused by that lace jabot, that greatly distracts from the clean lines of the well tailored, wool coat. There could be a variety of reasons for it, most likely that Kate thought it was the right way to add style or interest to a re-wear. However, try as I might, I can't see that there is a health related reason to wear a jabot.

Oh no, not a Tricornered hat and the lace addition… American Revolution styling :-/

Looks Victorian, and I like the idea. But... It's much too crowded around the neck area. The lace jabot, the stitching of the coat, the brooches, the earrings, the high neck, the hair. She always looks her best in simple, well-drawn lines.
