Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
The sleek skirt and blouson top scream Kate to me, especially because this one leaves room for a jewel if the Queen is feeling generous. She also likes dark colors, so there you go.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I could see this with an added detail at the waist cinching it just a bit -- not to make it super tight, but just to make it sleeker against her.

Girlfriend needs some cocktail-length dresses, and that one seems like the amount of knee it's showing is not ENTIRELY objectionable to HRH QE2. Sigh. I really think that hemline nonsense is just that. Kate Middleton isn't exactly prancing around town in microminis. She's doing just FINE. DON'T MESS HER UP, LIZ. SHE'S DOING THE MONARCHY A LOT OF GOOD.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
It's basically a wrap dress, and that seems very Duchess Kate. AND it's dark.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
This is a more daring prediction -- Kate isn't normally so bold with color -- but the cut, perhaps with less embellished sleeves, feels like a play on shapes she likes but in a way that would still feel new. I can't believe I'm thinking about this so much.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
This is boring, but let's be real: No one ever accused Kate Middleton of having daring tastes, and in fact, she's probably under orders NOT to at this point.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Likewise, I would enjoy her wearing this blood-red gown. Blood... like TOWER BEHEADINGS.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
The skirt on this was SO GORGEOUS in person. Tailor the top and it's a dream.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
She'd need it to be lined. But it's just modest enough.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Again, line it and I could see her giving it a whirl, because she DOES love a fuller skirt at times, and the top would be prim yet still pretty.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
That would be cool on her, right? If I remember correctly, you can see bits of skin in among those details, but it's hardly racy and you can barely tell and she could have netting put in, anyway.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I'd love to see her wear gold; I bet she'd want this without the white bits, so that it was solid gold. SOLID GOLD.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Orange would be AMAZING on her. KATE. LISTEN TO NOBODY BUT US.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I could definitely see her taking a chance on pink. And then everyone will be like, "SHE'S TRYING TO TELL US SHE WANTS TO HAVE A GIRL BABY SOON." Sigh. Let the woman enjoy her six-month old. That shit is hard.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I am not sure she'd go this bare up top, but the overlay might sell it?
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
The theme of the day is, "Line, it, and..."
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Or in this case, "Lengthen it, and..." I'd LOVE to see hr in something with texture.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
That is so cute. Bring that down to the knee, and for the right event, she would rule this.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I do not think the Duchess will wear something that looks like she has static cling.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
She wouldn't really wear this, but she'd be more LIKELY to than many other things.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I'd actually LOVE to see her wear what amounts to a long skirt and a super expensive sweatshirt. It looks so comfortable.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Too slouchy.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
I would actually love to see this on her, too. Feathered skirt! Sparkly sweater! But I'd be SHOCKED if it happened.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
The double slit? HELL no.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
This is a short orange version of the long blue dress I liked for her; this would be nice too but in the electric orange it'll be too showy. For her position, I mean.

This is too yellow for my personal taste, and also, I think, for La Middleton's.
JP_FW_FRONTS_2014_0458
Yeah, I still think that particular gold is too urine-colored for her, even though this concept is not out of the question.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Same problem. Beautiful dress, but do we think she'd let the color wheel land here? I think Pat Sajak would give it a kick and make sure it jumped to another spot.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
That's gorgeous, and in person it didn't look very naked (it IS lined), but in photos it's too racy for the Queen to approve, I fear. And I DO think she gets a vote.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Way too bare up top. Give her a wrap and maybe? But no. It's just too much torso for the Palace, methinks.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
HRH will NEVER condone her granddaughter-in-law flashing stomach on PURPOSE.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
And Kate would not wear a jumpsuit. Ever. It's one reason I am fairly sure we would be great friends.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
She MIGHT invest in that shirt, but she's not going to do the satin trousers.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
Not a chance.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
She is NEVER going to get her pants from this designer. It's just a fact. Packham is for the Pretty Princess moments, not the "I have to sit on a plane for four hours" moments.
Jenny Packham - Runway - Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Fall 2014
PLEASE GOD let her get off the plane in this. IT WOULD BE A MOMENT.
