Nothing better than a day at Wimbledon or Kate Middleton sporting a polka-dot outfit perfectly encapsulates what it means to be a British summer.
The Duchess of Cambridge made her first appearance at the 2022 event on Tuesday,
July 5 in one of her favourite tea gowns by Alessandra Rich, which included her signature pattern.
The active monarch who is also the patron of the All England Tennis Club arrived as
British rising star Cameron Norrie got ready to take on Belgian David Goffin in the men's quarterfinal.
Following the second-round eliminations of Andy Murray and Emma Raducanu, Norrie must now carry the aspirations of Britain.
Kate accessorised her cornflower-blue belted dress, which she had previously wore to make a surprise appearance at a
street party over the Platinum Jubilee weekend, with pearl earrings, classic tortoiseshell sunglasses, and a neat white handbag.
The choice to include slingback stiletto heels from the self-described fan of a simple suede pump was unexpected.
The Duchess recently added three of Rich's feminine, '40s-inspired midi-dresses to her wardrobe, and
she wore one while Prince William and she posed for pictures at SW19 for her father-in-law Prince Charles's 70th birthday.
She also enjoys wearing garish polka dots.
Kate channelled the style of the late Princess Diana when she wore a splotchy dress by Alessandra Rich to Royal Ascot earlier this summer.
