Kate’s purple midi dress for Wimbledon Tennis Championships
The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, attended the Wimbledon Tennis Championships at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club on July 14 this year. During the rare outing, the former Duchess of Cambridge opted for a custom Safiyaa gown in royal purple. The event-appropriate outfit came with a ruched bodice and softly flared skirt. A mid-length hem, A-line midi shape and structured sleeves crafted from heavy crepe truly elevated her charm.
To accessorize her Wimbledon-worthy fit, Kate elevated her look in Sabine Hoop earrings from British jeweler By Pariah. Considering the elegant dress that came with a slightly modified neckline from the original one, she ditched a neckpiece and instead carried a nude box bag.
To finish off her look, she wore Camilla Elphick sling-back pumps, with her hair styled in a relaxed side-parting. Her makeup was kept minimal to not overwhelm her look.
