Insta-Poll, Kate’s Calendar Update & Russell & Bromley’s Fab Autumn Collection

Posted by admin

We are back with a quick poll, an update to Kate’s Calendar and then a look at Russell and Bromley’s autumn/winter 2018 collection.

Late last week I had an email asking “why not do a poll on Kate’s looks since she came back from maternity leave?” I thought about it and quickly looked at the styles we’ve seen since October and thought, “Why not, indeed?” It’s almost an insta-poll, quick to look at and vote on. I am only including the daywear/semi-formal dresses, eliminating the two casual ensembles and the gown from the state dinner, they just didn’t feel like a good fit with the other four dresses.

The first dress the Duchess wore after maternity leave was an Emilia Wickstead a-line crepe style, seen when William and Kate attended a mental health summit in early October.  Crafted of a mid-weight wool, the dress features a boat neckline, fitted bodice with front and back darts, full skirt, self-belt and back zipper. The Duchess initially wore the dress in July 2017.

New Engagements for Kate’s Calendar, LK Bennett Launches Bridal Collection

Hello and happy weekend to all, hopefully it’s an enjoyable one.  We begin today with new engagements added to Kate’s Calendar.

  • Monday, March 9 (15:15 local time/10:15am ET): William and Kate join the Queen and other royals for a Commonwealth Observance Day service at Westminster Abbey. The Day is “Britain’s largest annual inter-faith gathering… organised with the Royal Commonwealth Society. Among the 2,000-strong congregation will be more than 1,000 children from schools and youth groups.” (This is via Westminster Abbey.) The service is roughly an hour long and will include music, readings and hymns.
  • Friday, March 13th (11am local time/6am ET): William and Kate join other senior royals at St. Paul’s for a Service of Commemoration honoring those who served in Afghanistan. “The service will pay tribute to members of the Armed Forces past and present who served on operations in Afghanistan, and all those in the UK who worked to make the country a safer more stable place.” Following the service there will be a parade through the streets of London, a flyover and a reception at the GuildHall. “Members of the public will be able to watch the parade and from next week can visit the City of London police website for more information including timings and a map of the route.” The order of service may be seen here, there are also details here.
    • Obviously a solemn occasion, the service will be attended by senior political and governmental officials, as well as “members of the Armed Forces, veterans, the next of kin of deceased personnel, representatives of military and aid charities and organisations, and the UK’s NATO allies in Afghanistan from 2001 – 2014.”
    • During/following the parade there will be “… a flypast of aircraft used in the campaign, including Chinook, Apache and Sea King Helicopters, and Hercules and Tornado aircraft will fly over the parade and Cathedral in tribute.”
    • The service and parade will be aired live on BBC One starting at 10:30am London time.

Next on our hit parade, a look at LK Bennett’s spring collection. We begin with a frock that is arguably the most versatile of the label’s spring dress crop, the Marlene Fitted Dress ($395). This one can easily be dressed up or down, paired with a shrug, a jacket, almost anything. The colors from left to right: cyan blue, jelly bean pink and dark navy.

Kate’s Calendar Getting Crowded & About Those Poppies

Two more engagements have been added to Kate’s Calendar.

  • Wednesday, November 12: In her role as Patron of SportsAid Kate will attend a workshop at the Human Performance Lab. She will watch athletes being measured in a variety of ways, including strength and power tests, cognitive assessments, and more.
  • Wednesday, November 19: Kate will attend the Place2Be Wellbeing in Schools Awards in the Kensington Palace State apartments. The Duchess is the organization’s Patron, there is more information about the awards here.

You can always see the updated list of engagements on our calendar of engagements.

A reminder that Kate and William have two engagements in Wales tomorrow (the 8th). The first is at the Pembroke Oil refinery, where the couple will view a display of the facility’s history in the community. They will also meet workers and members of community groups supported by the refinery and view a performance by the Young Actors Studio. Because it doesn’t appear they will be touring any outside operations, I don’t think we will have another ‘hardhat moment,’ it’s more likely Kate will be in one of her standard daywear dresses and a coat.

The second engagement is the rugby match between Wales and Australia at Millenium Stadium in Cardiff. Weather in both locations is expected to be in the low 50s, with an 80% chance of rain. The stadium has a retractable roof so weather shouldn’t impact the match in any way. For those planning their Saturdays, the match begins at 14:30 local time, 9:30am ET. Cardiff is about two hours by car from Pembroke (a chopper ride between the two cities will be much shorter), so if backtiming from the 2:30 match start it is obvious the Pembroke engagement will be in the morning; my guesstimate is 10am-ish.

This is not Kate’s first visit to Millenium Stadium. She attended a rugby match there in November 2012 and the Welsh team also played on that occasion. The team’s primary color is red; fittingly the Duchess wore her red LK Bennett ‘Ami’ coat and carried a red Gucci clutch.

At that time Kate was in the first trimester of her pregnancy with Prince George, not dissimilar to her current situation. A closer look at Kate’s bag.

Look for Kate to be wearing red again, and for both the Duke and Duchess to be wearing poppies. With Remembrance Sunday this weekend, and Armistice Day next Tuesday, we will be seeing many poppies.

We also expect Kate to view Remembrance Sunday ceremonies. The official service at the Cenotaph begins at 11am local time, 6am ET. The BBC’s coverage starts at 1025am. In past years it has been shown on BBC America although I don’t know if that is the plan this year.

Clarence House has started its rolling blog covering Remembrance activities through next Tuesday. Click here to go that site.

NOTE: Your trusty correspondent is out of town Saturday and will be attempting her first post via the iPad. To mangle actress Bette Davis’s quote in All About Eve, it could be a bumpy ride.

The poppy conversation is a convenient segue to our other topic today, an update on the art installation at the Tower of London honoring the Centenary of World War I, now simply referred to by many as the ‘Tower poppies‘. This is a fairly long portion of today’s post, and while somewhat related to what Kate wore, it is a more general update on the memorial and growing debate about its immediate future. Readers more interested specifically in fashion may want to depart until tomorrow’s post. Some of the background material will be repetitive for some, it seemed a good idea to share the basics one more time.

The installation’s formal name is “Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red.” Here is how it looked when we visited on October 16th.

There will ultimately be 888,246 poppies filling the Tower’s renowned dry moat, each representing a British or Colonial fatality from the First World War. Almost all have been planted now.
