Kate Middleton attends a traditional Buckingham Palace garden party

And

______________________________

Yesterday, May 9, the annual outdoor party took place in the garden of Buckingham Palace — garden party. And despite the fact that King Charles III and Queen Camilla, who seemed to be resting after the coronation celebrations, were not present at the event, other members of the royal family attended the party. Kate Middleton and Prince William talked to the guests, who, together with Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, acted as the organizers of the party, as well as Royal Princess Anne.

As you know, for a garden party, guests traditionally choose their best outfits. So, Kate Middleton appeared in public in a light blue image from Elie Saab, and she wore it to the Royal Ascot races in 2019. Princess Katherine accessorized her sophisticated lace and tulle outfit with Giantvito Rossi silver pumps, an Elie Saab tonal studded clutch and jewelery designer Kiki McDonough’s diamond hoop earrings. It is easy to assume that for Kate this exit was stylistically a breath of fresh air, because at the celebrations dedicated to the coronation of Charles III, she wore mostly classic red, blue and white colors.

The Duchess of Edinburgh, in turn, also preferred the outfit in which she shone at the races last year. — blue lace dress from Suzannah. Her husband accompanied her to the event. — Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh.

Recall that in the garden Buckingham Palace hosts up to three outdoor parties each year. These events are an important part of the royal family’s calendar. An interesting fact: during her lifetime, Elizabeth II hosted up to 30,000 guests at such parties. According to various estimates, at a typical Garden Party, those present drank up to 27,000 cups of tea and ate up to 20,000 sandwiches and cakes.
