CLASS IS PERMANENT! Kate Middleton repeats white Alexander McQueen outfit at Commonwealth Games
Kate Middleton arrived in Birmingham at the 2022 Commonwealth Games donning a very familiar-looking outfit. The Duchess of Cambridge wore her trusty Alexander McQueen white suit to the Sandwell Aquatics Centre on Tuesday, August 2, to watch the swimming heats alongside Prince William and their seven-year-old daughter Princess Charlotte. The mother-of-three had debuted the £1945 outfit in March during William and Kate's pricey Caribbean royal trip, teaming it with a vibrant orange top for a formal engagement with the Prime Minister of Jamaica.
In June, the Duchess donned the ivory suit once more to attend a Windrush Day event, that was created in 2018 to honor the millions of people who immigrated from Caribbean nations to the UK between 1948 and 1971. Kate has a close relationship with Alexander McQueen because she has worn the brand on important occasions, most notably at her wedding in 2011 as well. According to the Daily Mail, the white suit has become a new must for royals, according to stylists, who explained the trend in May after Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, and the former Princess Tessy of Luxembourg all wore the look this season.

Kate's beloved two-piecer has since been compared to a similar one worn by Princess Diana, as well as Meghan Markle's white power suit at the Invictus Games in the Netherlands.
During her appearance in Birmingham, the Duchess continued to stick to a monochromatic theme by pairing her opulent suit with a white shirt and a white belt. She added some flair to the classic outfit with a set of £3,750 Mappin and Webb earrings and practical Camilla Elphick slingback shoes.
The 40-year-old also styled her chestnut tresses in the iconic glossy Kate Middleton hairstyle, separating them down the middle and letting their waves fall freely over her shoulders.
In keeping with the occasion's classic theme, Prince William wore a navy suit jacket, a light blue button-down shirt, beige slacks, and brown shoes. In a Rachel Riley dress with black and white striped sleeves and white heels, Princess Charlotte looked gorgeous during the outing.
The young Princess went on her first solo outing with her parents without any of her brothers, Prince George, 8, and Prince Louis, 4. and garnered a wave of excitement online.
During the event, Princess Charlotte's cheeky faces became a particular interest as fans flocked to social media to gush at the child's hilarious expressions. Later, the royals went to a SportsAid house where they supported young athletes by serving as the patron of SportsAid for almost ten years.
Charlotte made her previous appearance during Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee celebration weekend when she and her siblings were continuously together.
