The Princess of Wales chose neutral separates for an engagement with Prince William at the Natural History Museum today. Here is a quick video of the royals arriving courtesy of Cameron Walker of GB News. NEW: The Prince and Princess of Wales have arrived at @NHM_London to meet children in its gardens. As patron, Catherine, alongside William, will join youngsters in activities designed to connect with nature & boost biodiversity in central London. pic.twitter.com/yFT76s28Hj — Cameron Walker (@CameronDLWalker) September 4, 2025 The Princess greeting a child at the museum. Many readers will recall that the Princess has been the museum's royal patron since 2013. The couple was there to see the museum's new gardens, described as ...a haven for wildlife and people in the heart of London. The gardens are free to visit; no ticket is required. We learn more from this People article. Princess Kate and Prince William learned how the gardens serve as a living laboratory, where visitors and scientists can view wildlife in an urban environment. The royals met students taking part in the National Education Nature Park program. Unfortunately, the outdoor activities at the museum were interrupted by a sudden downpour. Emily Ferguson of The Express shared a video of the rain. Unfortunately the heavens have opened… ☔️ But the Prince and Princess are carrying on deterred by the torrential downpour (even if the schoolchildren aren’t quite so happy by the change in weather) pic.twitter.com/p2PMZwCCAe — Emily Ferguson (@emilyinpalace) September 4, 2025 We return to the People story. Beverley Brown, an assistant headteacher at Kender Primary School, said, according to Hello!: We had been waiting for the session to start, and the children were very excited. Princess Kate was in amongst us and said, 'Let them go in,' and 'Let's take them inside, it's pouring.' Kate was seen helping to guide the young students inside as the rain came down. The Daily Mail has more in this piece. All had to dry off inside the activity centre before the royals took part in a workshop helping the children identify animals encased in blocks and find their regular habitat. Asked by a teacher for their findings, Catherine said the children in her group 'decided spiders are everywhere.' William rested his arm on one teacher's damp shoulders and said: 'Are you wet? We got you inside in time.' We return to the Daily Mail article. Sitting down in the activity centre, Catherine said: 'Sorry we are a bit wet. It was nice and dry and then suddenly within seconds, it was such a lovely day.' William laughed as he added: 'But it's nature, in amongst nature.' Kensington Palace noted the rain in a social media post. Here is a video from the Palace covering the museum visit. Exploring how the @NHM_London is using environmental education with storytelling and hands-on science to engage children with the natural world 🌍 The National Education Park Programme is inspiring young people to connect with nature, and to create more green spaces and habitats… pic.twitter.com/9YtUgYs47h — The Prince and Princess of Wales (@KensingtonRoyal) September 4, 2025 We now look at what Kate wore for today's engagement. The blazer appears to be a past-season Ralph Lauren design, thanks to Ellie of Royal British Fashion via Middleton Maven. The single-breasted style is crafted in 100% wool tweed of a green/brown tweed, with notched lapels, angled flap pockets, darts, and a center back vent. I show it below as offered on resale site The Real Real. Beneath the jacket, the Princess had on a white shirt with a point collar and flared cuffs. Both the Mail and the Telegraph are reporting it is by shirtmaker With Nothing Underneath. It's possible she wore the label's Boyfriend Exaggerated Cuff style ($155),but the button spacing on the cuffs doesn't look quite the same. UPDATE: The brand tells Middleton Maven the shirt is their Boyfriend Style in 100% Tencel ($190), featuring a looser fit with pleats across the yoke. I'm not able to tell if the trousers are a dark teal as they appear in some photos, or black, so at this point, they are unidentified. The belt initially resembled the Anderson’s Croc Effect Leather Belt, which has been worn on multiple occasions; however, the buckle hardware is wider (seen below left) than the Anderson's style shown below right. It looks like the Princess wore loafers by Pretty Ballerinas, the Spanish brand specializing in flats and low-heeled designs that we have seen the Princess wear previously. The style is the Ella, with a pointed toe, fringed trim, and gold-toned hardware. Thank you to Kate Middleton Styled this ID, also via Middleton Maven. The Princess wore her hair down with a loose curl. It is clearly lighter than it has been for some time; I was wrong in the most recent post covering August style through the years, saying I thought it was the sunshine making it look so light. She brought back her Classic Blue Topaz Pear Drop Earrings (£850, roughly $1140 at today's exchange rates) by Kiki McDonough. She wore her engagement ring, wedding band, the Annoushka Eclipse Eternity Band ($2200), and the sapphire/diamond band believed to be Cartier's Etincelle style ($5000). The Princess also wore necklaces by Daniella Draper, her Trio Diamond Midnight Moon necklace, and the Fixed Alphabet Style with the initials G, C, and L. Here is one more photo from today's engagement. VIDEO: The Royal Family Channel offers almost 18 minutes of coverage in this video.
The Princess of Wales chose an Alexander McQueen blazer and Knatchbull blouse for today's match at the Women's Rugby World Cup. The match was held at AmEx Stadium in Falmer, near Brighton, with England taking on Australia. We learn more from this Daily Mail story. The game marks the final of the group stage of the Women's Rugby World Cup, with England currently sitting at the top of the leaderboard, and Australia currently in second place. England, who are ranked the number one side in the world, shocked the US with a 69-7 win in the first round before another strong performance to win 92-3 against Samoa last weekend. Before the match, the Princess spent time with the team. Below, the Princess as she walks to her seat with Jonathan Webb, the Vice Chair of World Rugby. The Princess is patron of the Rugby Football Union. In late August, the Princess posted a personal message to the team as competition got underway. A better view of the Princess is offered in this image. Roughly 200 miles away, Prince William watched the Wales team take on Fiji in a match the Welsh team lost. He is the patron of the Welsh Rugby Union. The Princess, as she arrived at her seat. The match was sold out with more than 30,000 fans in the stadium. Here you see the Princess with England captains Zoe Aldcroft and Marlie Packer. And doing the wave. When time was up, England's Red Roses were victorious. England's next match is against Scotland on Sunday, September 14. After the match ended, the Princess visited the team's locker room. A quick video posted by the Red Roses. A special visitor 🌹 The #RedRoses were joined post-match by our Patron, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales.#RWC2025 pic.twitter.com/b0xJHEShv5 — Red Roses (@RedRosesRugby) September 6, 2025 Another view. It looked like everyone was elated and very much enjoying the victory. Chatting with players. And a formal group shot. The Princess also greeted fans outside the stadium. Now for our look at what Kate wore, beginning with a new blazer (at least new to those of us covering the Princess's style), an Alexander McQueen design, the Peak Shoulder Crepe Blazer ($2590). The jacket is a classic McQueen cut that the Princess has worn in other colors. It is crafted of a viscose/acetate blend with angled flap pockets, peaked lapels, double back vent, and single-button front closure. Beneath the jacket, the Princess brought back the Knatchbull blouse first noted in May of this year at a British Fashion Council awards ceremony. The Cascade Ruffle Blouse ($595) is 100% silk with fluted, elongated cuffs and a cascading ruffle down the front. The trousers worn today look like the Roland Mouret Axon style the Princess has worn on multiple occasions. The Princess carried her Chanel Mini-Flap Bag in Lambskin again, shown below at a previous engagement. The Princess wore her hair partially pulled back, and brought back her Cartier Trinity Earrings in white, rose, and yellow gold. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The black jacket and trousers make sense, as the Royal Family is in a period of official mourning following the death of the Duchess of Kent. Here is yesterday's Buckingham Palace announcement on social media. And the post from Kensington Palace. More about the Duchess from this Times of London obituary. When she married the Duke of Kent, the Queen’s cousin, in 1961, the duchess had been the first untitled woman in more than a century to marry into the Windsor family “firm”. Below, the couple at their 1961 wedding. Embed from Getty Imageswindow.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'X_3gFyzNQgleXAHEQna-Ng',sig:'h4k93kGnHJD7fZDwLJ-x8y_w-Zvi6Q8pWLwAQR1itTk=',w:'594px',h:'465px',items:'1090625846',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })}); We return to the Times piece. Despite retiring from royal duties in 2002, she effectively replaced one form of service with another. For 13 years she taught music at Wansbeck primary school in Hull, travelling there by train from London, unrecognised and unnoticed. “I was just known as Mrs Kent,” she said. “Only the head knew who I was … There was no publicity about it at all, it just seemed to work.” Below, you see the Duke and Duchess arriving at Westminster Abbey for a service marking the 60th Anniversary of the late Queen's Coronation in 2013. Below, the Duchess as she arrived for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's wedding in 2019. (If the dress looks familiar, it is the same Erdem design worn by the Duchess of Cambridge for the 2019 Chelsea Flower Show.) The funeral service will be on September 16 at Westminster Cathedral. I expect the Prince and Princess of Wales will be among those attending the service, although there is no confirmation of that at this point.
The Princess of Wales chose a suit by Bella Freud for engagements celebrating British textile makers. She started her day at the Sudbury Silk Mills in Suffolk, about three hours northeast of Windsor. She was greeted by Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, Deputy Lord Lieutenant of Suffolk, whom many of you will recognize from his years as Private Secretary to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. More on the theme of today's engagements from Hello's coverage. [the Princess]...has long been passionate about the importance of the British textiles industry and its role as part of the UK's cultural and creative voice. She has family links to the industry as her paternal ancestors were the owners of the woollen manufacturer and merchant, William Lupton & Co, which was based in Leeds. Sudbury Silk Mills is a family-run company that has been weaving silk textiles for more than 300 years. The fabric for Queen Camilla's coronation gown was woven in Sudbury, as was the fabric for the wedding gown worn by Diana, Princess of Wales. The Princess looking at one of the looms at the mill. Below, the Princess with account manager Beth Humes (in green) and other employees. More from this BBC story. Beth Humes, account manager at Sudbury Silk Mills, led Catherine through the design part of the process, explaining how they developed their fabric collections. She's got a really good understanding of textiles and the industry already, Ms Humes said. She was really interested in how we go about things and really understood the fabric weights and constructions... it was an amazing point to start from. We learn more from this Hello Rayo article. It must be amazing seeing the artwork go onto fabrics, she said. Do you know which customers then take this design on? It must be such a proud thing being able to see your artwork on the catwalk or in other people's collections. Hello, Rayo also reports, In a later conversation, with a fabric inspector at the business, Kate said: 'One of the things I'm really keen to do is support the creative industries and actually showcase how many amazing job opportunities there are for young people within manufacturing.' Another view. The visit was memorialized with a group photo. Following her time with employees, the Princess greeted crowds of well-wishers, including a group of schoolchildren. We return to the Hello Rayo piece. Afterwards Daniel Woodrow, headteacher at St Gregory Primary, said: I think you can tell from the children's smiles and from the fact they're still shaking a little bit now just what a special gesture it was for the princess to come over and see them and spend some really quality time with them asking them questions, listening to their answers. They're absolutely buzzing and I still have goosebumps that she came over and did that, I'm so happy for them that they had this experience today. School pupil Molly Broughton, 10, said it was a once in a lifetime opportunity, adding: I can't believe it happened. Here is a quick video via Suffolk's Greatest Hits Radio. #ThePrincessofWales spoke to students from St Gregory CEVCP Sudbury as she left The Sudbury Silk Mill pic.twitter.com/wvgP9RqcAR — Greatest Hits Radio Suffolk News (@GHRSuffolk) September 11, 2025 Below, the Princess is seen speaking with another well-wisher, Dorothy Wallis. The BBC story has more. It was quite a moment. I thought she'd quickly come, in fact I was surprised she even did, and then she got hold of my hand and arm. I thanked her for coming over and she said, 'No – thank you for coming'. The Princess then traveled to Marina Mill in Kent, another family-run business. The mill specializes in screen-printing fabrics for the interior design/home furnishings industry. We learn more from The Daily Mail's story. They supply dozens of royal homes - from Buckingham Palace to Clarence House to Highgrove, and even the Prince and Princess of Wales themselves - and are world- renowned for the quality of their fabrics, as well as the fact that they still do everything by hand. Rebecca English of The Daily Mail shared a video. The Princess of Wales is now at Marina Mill in Cuxton, Kent, a family business that specialises in hand designing and screen- printing furnishing fabrics. pic.twitter.com/iMawjW6udE — Rebecca English (@RE_DailyMail) September 11, 2025 More from Kent Online's coverage. The company operates with a small team of nine employees who produce fabrics using the traditional silk-screen method, and are all highly skilled in hand-printing, colour mixing and screen-making. Princess Kate, who was dressed in a grey tweed trouser suit, spent time with design director Tandine Rawkins, observing the creative processes before mucking in herself. Below, the Princess and Ms. Rawkins. The Princess started her visit in her jacket and trousers, with her hair down. But she soon shed the blazer. She then put her hair up before trying her hand at the screen-printing process. More from this People piece. Kate removed her suit jacket, donned an apron, and then — in a move that impressed many — effortlessly tied back her long hair without the use of a band, pin or clip. She simply twisted her locks into a bun at the nape of her neck before tucking the ends underneath to secure the simple style. A quick video. Just the Princess of Wales effortlessly putting her hair into a bun with no hair ties or clips at all today 💅 pic.twitter.com/N8Tai9HQPg — Belle (@RoyallyBelle_) September 11, 2025 Here you see the Princess as she tries printing. We learn more from The Daily Mail story. ...workers Sam and Adam showed her how to transfer the colour from the screen, which had been engraved with a stunning floral pattern, onto the fabric by pushing through the coloured dye using a squeegee. ‘It’s a real labour of love,’ she remarked. ‘Do you have to do things in a particular order?’ She leaned over and helped place the heavy screen on the table over the material and then waited as Adam pushed the squeegee towards her. She then picked it up half way and completed the sweep, before catching some more paint on it and pushing it back to him. Concentrating heavily, she asked a few questions about where she should place her hands and appeared delighted when she pulled it off without a mistake. She then helped Adam carry the screen down to the next segment of fabric, repeating the exercise three times. Reaction to the Princess's visit via Kent Online. Tandine, reflecting on the royal visit, said: She was amazing. She has an ability to make everyone feel at ease. Everyone was anxious but she makes you forget to be nervous. She was asking all the questions - she had done her research. Tandine revealed that when a representative from Kensington Palace called in June, I thought it was a hoax. Summing up the visit, she concluded: I'm really happy with how it went. Here is a video from Kensington Palace about the engagements. Celebrating creativity, skills and community in Suffolk and Kent. From weaving to hand-printing, a pleasure to see the joy of craftsmanship at the heart of the British textiles industry. pic.twitter.com/VtcGEfEmNm — The Prince and Princess of Wales (@KensingtonRoyal) September 11, 2025 Now, let's take a look at what Kate wore. We begin with her suit by British label Bella Freud. The tailored Earl Jacket ($533) is a single-breasted style done in a Prince of Wales check. The jacket is made of a wool/linen blend and features a slim cut, peaked lapels, and flap pockets. The Princess matched the jacket with Bella Freud's Schoolboy Trousers (£525, roughly $710 at today's exchange rates). They are a mid-rise design with a straight leg, belt loops, and side and back pockets. Both styles are currently sold out, but you can register to be notified if they are back in stock. Thank you to Mirela and Middleton Maven for this ID. Bella Freud is the daughter of painter Lucian Freud and the great-granddaughter of psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud. She launched her eponymous fashion label in 1990 and hosts a popular podcast, Fashion Neurosis. More about the designer from this New Yorker profile. In 1991, Freud won the New Generation Designer category at the British Fashion Awards. At the turn of the millennium, she designed several capsule collections for Jaeger, an old-school British label known for its camel-hair coats. More recently, she has created popular collections for Marks & Spencer, a British department store, with versions of her pussycat-bow blouses and slogan sweaters at a mass-market price point. But her own label has stayed small: she has a staff of around ten and only one boutique, in London’s Marylebone district. Middleton Maven suggests that beneath the jacket, the Princess wore a past-season Boden cashmere top similar to the current Eva Cashmere Tee ($149). It is a piece she has worn in the 'oatmeal' colorway. The Princess wore her 'Power' Pumps in black suede by Stuart Weitzman, a point-toe style with a 3.75 heel. I'm unsure whether they are the original style she's worn over the years (below left) or the updated version of the shoe (below right), but I am leaning toward it being the newer style. We saw the return of the black Anderson's Croc-Effect Belt ($225). Here is a closer look; you can just see the faint blue in the pattern. The Princess brought back her Daniella Draper Gold Diamond Luxury Maxi Cupid Hoop Earrings ($3400) and Fixed Alphabet Necklace (starting at $495) featuring her children's first initials. I'll leave you with one more image from today's engagements. VIDEO: The Royal Family Channel offers more than six minutes of coverage in this video.
