The Princess of Wales wore a polka dot pussy bow dress from Whistles under an Alexander McQueen (naturally) peacoat in a coordinating shade of dark red. Her pointed toe pumps and clutch bag perfectly matched the colour of the coat, and Kate finished the look with Catherine Zoraida gold fern drop earrings.
