January 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Duchess Kate and Prince William attended the annual Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph in London. The service honors all of the service people who have bravely fought during wars and conflict.

While Meghan Markle joined Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Princess Anne's husband, Sir Timothy Laurence on one balcony, the Duchess of Cambridge stood with Queen Elizabeth and Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

Kate looked exceedingly smart in a black fascinator, which partially covered her face, and a tailored coat dress.

2019 marks the 100th anniversary since the first ever two-minute silence was observed on November 11, 1919, to commemorate Armistice Day and all of the service people who lost their lives during World War 1.

While attending the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday night, Kate remained in good spirits alongside her husband, Prince William. For the concert, which featured performances from pop stars James Blunt and Leona Lewis, Kate wore a navy blue dress with a bateau neckline. She finished the look with a super affordable sparkly headband from Zara, which retails for just $29.90 and is still available to shop, and a pair of Jimmy Choo "Romy 100" black velvet pumps.
