Well Played, Royal Tour of Australia and New Zealand: Kate's Wardrobe Retrospective

Day 1: Catherine Walker

Nothing kicks off a lengthy official visit like a pillbox hat!

Day 3 Tory Burch

Tory Burch, here pictured accessorized with a romper-clad SNUGGLE MUFFIN.

Day 4: Alexander McQueen

McQueen Coat of the Trip number one.

Day 4: Jenny Packham

An intriguing length on this Packham, to my way of thinking. Remember this point in the tour, when we were all breathlessly being, like, "WELL IT'S TRUE THE QUEEN HAS FORBIDDEN HER KNEES WE ARE NEVER GOING TO SEE THEM AGAIN."? Spoiler: we saw her knees again.

Day 5: Zara

This look is casual, classic Kate. (And actually, William looks very William-y as well.)

Day 6: Erdem

I love this coat; I wish we could have seen the dress she was wearing underneath it, as it was this one and I might love it.

Day 7: Emilia Wickstead

Teal! Hats! Pleats!

Day 7: Jonathan Saunders Sweater and jeans

A more casual look, with very cute sneakers. (I spaced out and forgot this until now; it's irritating my OCD at the very bottom of the poll, but I can't edit the poll to put it in the right place without SHIT GETTING REAL so we're all going to have to live with this. And by "we're all," I mean me.)

Day 7: Gap and Zara

This is basically the same outfit as the yacht-racing ensemble, but with a shirt from the Gap tossed into the mix. I have a version of that shirt, from J Crew, and last time I wore it with my own blue blazer, I was in costume as Liz Lemon. Just hand Kate some Sabor de Soledad and see what happens.

Day 8: Luisa Spagnoli

What better to play cricket in than a pencil-skirt suit? (She was supposed to change, but they were running too late PER SOURCES.)

Day 10: Rebecca Taylor

Lots of blue on this tour. Blue is the Official Color of the Cambridges, I believe.

Day 10: Roksanda Ilincic

Nude shoes aside, I far prefer this to her other Roksanda Ilincic. But I get merely one vote.

Day 12: Zimmerman

I LOVE this dress.

Day 11: DVF

Our SECOND patterned frock of the tour.

Day 13: LK Bennett

Followed by our third.

Day 14: Alexander McQueen

And our second Alexander McQueen of the trip. My lust for an Alexander McQueen coat is all-consuming and unless something VERY EXCITING AND DRAMATIC happens in my life, like my falling into a pit of cash, doomed to be unrequited. ALAS.

Day 14: Who Even Knows

This one -- which is by "an independent dressmaker," so maybe designed by her? -- is like the cousin to the white lace Zimmerman, and it's very perky and cute for an Easter Sunday zoo trip.
