Introduction
Kate Middleton has been the most photographed woman in the world since she married Prince William in 2011. From meeting the Queen at Buckingham Palace to visiting impoverished countries and attending major events like the Olympics and BAFTAs, Kate always looks elegant and stylish no matter what she wears. In this post we’ll take a look at 17 dresses that have captured our attention over the years:

- Kate in a belted, light blue coat and nude pumps at the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee lunch.

Queen’s Diamond Jubilee
To start, Kate wore a belted coat with light blue accents. The color of the coat is important because it sets off her dress underneath and makes her look more elegant. Next, she wore nude pumps with a heel that was 1 inch (2 cm). The event she was attending at Buckingham Palace was called “The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Lunch.”
Erdem
Kate Middleton is one of the most stylish women in the world. She married Prince William in 2011 and has since then become an icon for fashionistas all over the world.
Kate’s style is known for being simple yet elegant, with a touch of understated glamour. She has been praised by many for her impeccable choice in clothing, which has led to her being called a “fashion icon”.
BAFTAs
McQueen was a British fashion designer and Kate wore one of his dresses for the BAFTAs.
McQueen was born in London in 1941. He grew up at 4 Blenheim Crescent in Oxfordshire, where he lived until he was 22 years old. After studying architecture at night school, he started working as an apprentice designer for the Italian couture house Valentino. In 1968, McQueen moved to Paris where he worked for Yves Saint Laurent and then Pierre Cardin before opening his boutique on Rue Saint Honore in 1971 with partner David Neville (later founder of Mulberry).
In 1984-85 he designed two New York collections: “Hollywood Dreams” which featured celebrities such as Madonna; “Made In Heaven,” featuring Christian Lacroix’s designs; and “Paris Nights.”
