Kate Middleton Wears A Butter Yellow Outfit For A Garden Party At Buckingham Palace

On May 20th, there was an annual springtime garden party that the Prince and Princess of Wales hosted at Buckingham Palace in London, England. It was their first time hosting a garden event this year, and it was a big deal for Kate, as it was one of her first hosting events since she announced she was in remission from cancer in January.

 

For the festive spring event, the mom of three wore a butter yellow coat dress, which was very trendy of her, considering the light shade of yellow is very hot right now and being worn by various celebrities. The dress had long sleeves, a criss-cross waist, and a long skirt that stopped just above her ankles. She wore her brown hair up and accessorized her look with a simple pair of heels and a matching hat that she wore to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's famous wedding in 2018.

 

This isn't the first time the royal has been seen recycling some of her former looks and wardrobe pieces, which many appreciate, given it's more environmentally friendly. Her appearance at the garden party was very exciting for her fans, as it was great to see her looking happy and healthy as she interacted with guests on the palace lawn.

Fans React To Kate's Garden Party Look On Social Media

After high-quality photos of Kate and William at the garden party were released on social media, royal family fans began writing numerous comments about how great she looked and how much they liked her outfit. Fans also couldn't help but notice how she re-wore the hat she wore during Harry and Meghan's wedding, given everything that's happened between the couple and the rest of the royal family over the last few years. Many fans and media outlets called the small accessory detail "shocking."

 

"She always wears such beautiful colors," wrote a fan. "Looking pretty and healthy," added another.

 

"Lovely hat," wrote an additional fan.

 

"It changes at every angle."

 

This event didn't come long after the Prince and Princess of Wales celebrated their 14th wedding anniversary in Scotland, which was the princess's first overnight visit since announcing she was recovering from her illness.

 

Fans of hers are extremely happy to see her attend and perform more royal duties and are excited to see what other looks she has planned for the upcoming summer.
