The midi-length skirt is by Alessandra Rich, and Kate coordinated the rest of her outfit to match it: a white t-shirt, a navy blazer, white shoes and a white leather mini handbag by Mulberry. Meanwhile, her blazer’s gold buttons were echoed by the gold disc of Duchess Kate’s ‘Midnight Moon’ pendant by Daniella Draper, which is engraved with the initials of the three Cambridge children and studded with a diamond. After watching Tim Henman and Jamie Murray compete in the men’s doubles, Kate donned a face mask and apron for a visit to the Centre Court kitchen to help prepare the iconic bowls of strawberries and cream that Wimbledon is famous for. She also learned about the 200 hot meals a day that the All England Lawn Tennis Club, of which the duchess is patron, distributed to members of the community for a year after the 2020 championships were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Kate was notable by her absence at yesterday’s ceremony that saw Prince William and Prince Harryunveil a statue of their late mother in the grounds of Kensington Palace. Revealed on what would have been her 60th birthday, the statue depicts Princess Diana surrounded by three children. The plinth is engraved with her name—’Diana, Princess of Wales’—an extract from the poem ‘The Measure of a Man’: These are the units to measure the worth Of this woman as a woman regardless of birth. Not what was her station? But had she a heart? How did she play her God-given part?
