I used to get mad when the Princess of Wales repeated a black coat for Remembrance Sunday. It felt like, hey, this is one of the big dates on your calendar, just buy a new black coat. But honestly, Kate now has so many black coats and they only get pulled out for Remembrance events and the occasional funeral, so why not just stick with the pieces she already has? That’s what she did this year – she re-wore a Catherine Walker coat, the same one she wore for Remembrance Sunday in 2022. She did change the way she styled it though – she added a prissy, Victorian-looking lace ruffle and jabot, which I assume is part of the dress (or Victorian dressing gown) she’s wearing underneath the coat. Kate also wore pearl earrings (the Bahrain pearl-and-diamond ones she consistently borrows) and a poppy crafted by Izzy Ager of Lock & Co. I also think Kate’s hat is new? The hat is doing the most to obscure the fact that Kate’s eyebrows look insane, like she drew them on with a Sharpie.
Below, I’m including more photos from the Remembrance Sunday wreath-laying at the Cenotaph. Prince William actually turned up to the Cenotaph after skipping the Festival of Remembrance the night before. William looked pretty grim about it too – honestly, in nearly every photo I saw of him, he looked absolutely disgusted. What a weird energy to bring to Remembrance Sunday? Of course, Kate and Camilla had a weird energy on the balcony too – they were gossiping and giggling and there’s a really weird “wiglets at dawn” photo where they’re facing each other. Sophie (the Duchess of Edinburgh) was also on a balcony, and I assume Prince Edward was on the ground with the other men.

Camilla and keen don’t like each other imo. They are playing happy families. Keen And Camilla have not aged well. That huge wig keen carries looks awful.
These two are playing it for the cameras. The keens and CC cant stand each other since a long while.
Anyway, the bib looks horrible. She just jad her eyebrows done because it was absolutely necessary to move in to her new house.
She looks like she’s challenging Camilla to a duel in that getup. I want to say Regency?
If you watch a clip of them , there is definitely no love loss between them, completely ignore each other, Kate has that face on again !
In the second photo does she have the Trump neck-like ala Galvin new some
She’s aged horribly that’s why she’s photoshopped
LOL. Had no idea what you were talking about (“Trump neck-like ala Galvin new some”) until I looked it up. ‘Neckussy’ is so gross, in both cases.
Of course Peg looked grim he had to come home and couldn’t be with his bestie Jason he had to appear with his beloved wife lol. That and he was probably hungover.
His posture in that photo is terrible too, like he’s been dragged to this ceremony against his will. He’s a disgrace.
I’m sure he’s jet lagged and exhausted from the long flight back from Rio, but knock back a few espresso shots and deal with it for an hour.
That’s what I was thinking – he looks hungover.
Scooter looks scruffy with that beard and very sullen.
Wow…that face on Willie… someone is piiiiiiiiiissed off! Probably mad they dragged him out of bed early after a bender the night before. *Such* an unpleasant person; can’t even suck it up and show a modicum of respect for the reason he is there.
Mother Nature and the Crone of Raymill look like two old crows on a phone line.
William’s face could be explained by him having received a major dressing -down from the British Prime Minister for having skipped the previous evening’s Armed Forces Festival of Remembrance. I’d put money on that being the reason.
The PM had attended the same COP30 Brazil meetings and had flown back in good time to attend said Festival – William had nowhere to hide.
Perfect analogy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Isn’t it inappropriate for Camilla and keen to giggle during this occasion
I notice that scooter has very bad posture here and looks like he was forced to attend.
Wiglets at dawn . That scene of the two witches face to face is more like High Noon. Plus all that hair left loose looks crazed along with the faded looking napkin at her neck..its not a Halloween party . These people make every event a travesty ..they shouldn’t be allowed to show their ugly faces. Charles as the monarch , maybe Anne who has some dignity . Edward minus stupid Sophie. Thats all the pared down royalty they need . Harry who has championed veterans has been unfortunately benched ..nobody else matters
I do not like that lace thing at the throat. I get that it’s updating the coat and is supposed to look Victorian. But I don’t think it’s doing Victorian that well. It just looks like a lace napkin emerging from the collar and laying there. There’s something Captain Hook about it but all black. Usually I can get into a little pirate dressing but this is meh.
it does look like Captain hook – its awful. It ends up being too much going on – the coat is pretty and classic, but it does have those seams at the collar, and then the lace thingie, and then the poppy and then the brooch, plus her hair is down. Removing one or two of those elements would have helped a lot – obviously the poppy is staying, so lets remove the lace thingie and put her hair up. All of a sudden its a much better look.
Yes, just remove the lace thingy. It’s silly. Truly. And I can hold a lot of space for costumey and quirky but this is not giving anything.
She might be trying to cover up her throat – she looks totally dehydrated.
It remains hilarious that Kate’s only pretend job was accessories buyer for Jig Saw (or assistant to) and she is awful at accessories.
That lace thing was not needed and it hides the design of the coat. It also doesn’t help that the black isn’t really black and clashes with the coat.
The hair is just ugh. For those wondering how we can tell she’s got a wig on, if you notice she always handles her hair as if she’s grabbing a clump. If you have all real hair, when you push it back you tend to run your fingers through it a bit more and not grab it in clumps.
Kate is consistent about 2 things, being lazy and refusing to work and hideous clothes.
They all look so dried up, like they’re turning into dust.
That bib looks awful.
And I always wonder what is so funny about remembering war dead.
That said this was the family grinning from ear to ear after the queen died
Is that mantilla stuffed in her neck?? Doesn’t match with the fabric and colour.
Too small to be a mantilla, which fits on top of the head & cascades downward.
Kate does not seem well. Her eyebrows scream mental illness.
All four of them look dreadfully ill. They are aging horribly. Compare any one of them to pictures of Harry and Meghan who look beautiful, youthful and energized.
Scoot looks like he just came off a bender. Buttons looks like herself – prissy outfit, bad wiglet, bad makeup.
Kate looks okay. She didn’t need to the jabot.
William looks awful. Let’s say he’s dealing with jet lag – he basically has to get through 14-16 hours from the festival of remembrance through this. Suck it up and drink all the coffee and then go back to one of your many mansions and crash.
He’s starting to establish a pattern of missing military related events and thats going to be a big problem for him.
His appearance here: the poor posture, the rubbydub facial hair shows lack of respect for veterans and the occasion. It just screams IDGAF. He’s just calling it in at this point. What a loser.
He’s 43 and should be able to handle jet lag. Meanwhile his much older father is dealing with way more and is far more stoic about it.
I’ve had to travel for work & attend meetings immediately upon arrival. You suck it up then nap during lunch or afterward. Anybody who’s had a real job knows what it’s like to get up & go in spite of whatever you did the day or night before.
Billy Idle could have joined Keir Starmer on his flight back (think about the environment!). Starmer managed to look okay at the concert, though he must have been jetlagged.
Seems William wanted to have one more night with Jason.
They need those cute kids to grow up fast because these are a very sad looking bunch.
How do these people have so much money yet look so ill? Is it all the drinking?
That, and the smoking.
Lady Danbury wore that hat better.
And Kate and Camilla are so disrespectful. Grow up, ladies.
The Duchess of Gloucester looked good and she’s in her 70s. Too bad they focus on the main four.
Why is Kate wearing a gravy boat for a hat? Why is she still so terrible at these functions after so many years? Her bones and vertebrae stick out through her dresses. Everyone can see it, and no one is buying the excuses except the royal reporters making a living off of her. She’s bad for the public RF image, why let her attend looking like this? Make her stay home. No one wants to see her cosplay Princess Diana’s eating disorder. Her food and clothing choices might be the only control she has right now, but let’s not celebrate how she’s treating herself. She looks terrible.
Oh, the wiglet, it looks so so bad. How bad do you think her real hair is to go out with this? It truly is just plopped on her head.
I think she is finally wearing clothes that suit her role, including the pilgrim dress. Anyone who lives a feudal life in golden carriages and monarchist palaces at the expense of the people should also look just as old-fashioned, conservative and outdated. Just right.
Kate looks rough! Those eyebrows are so thickly drawn in..the bags under the eye. I guess this is what she really looks like without the photoshop.
For someone who doesn’t do much work she sure does look very tired. I also didn’t realize her neck lacked so much volume; she’s only 43 or 44.
@Thelma – and such a contrast with how she photographed only the evening before, at the Armed Forces Festival of Remembrance. Must have been photoshopped.
I thought the press wasn’t going to comment on Kate’s fashion anymore …
There must be a reason that Kate seems set to wear her hair like that forevermore. I t
Kate doesn’t wear black well. Somehow black emphasizes her haggard face and appears to make her jowls look even worse! It has to be hell for her, having the camera document her rapid aging. I’d almost feel sorry for her if she hadn’t grown into the face she deserves.
The bib she’s wearing is almost as horrid as those full length, black polyester gloves she paired with a sheen and flowy white gown and enormous gold earrings.
My God. Kate truly has the worst taste in fashion and accessories. It’s a rare combination of stupid, ugly, octogenarian, and childish.
Someone please help her with her wigs and her accessories, how many times can this woman step out looking so clearly uncared for?
He also looks haggard. Pa looks better than him.
There is a make-up artist who does Instagram reels on make-up for women over 40, and let me tell you, Kate is doing it all wrong. Someone should probably send her a link to the videos.
The eyebrows. My god. It looks like she’s in the middle of having them tinted.
