Princess Catherine Stuns in £3,000 Red Outfit as Royal Family Welcomes President of South Korea
Princess Catherine made a stunning appearance in a vibrant red ensemble alongside Prince William as they greeted the President of South Korea during his visit to the UK.
The 41-year-old princess donned a striking scarlet coat dress designed by Catherine Walker, valued at £3,000, featuring an elegant bow detail at the front.
Completing her look, she wore a matching red hat by Jane Taylor and coordinated heels, elegantly styling her long brunette hair in a chic updo.
Adding a touch of glamour, Kate adorned herself with Princess Diana's sapphire and diamond oval drop earrings.
The royal couple played a significant role in the morning's events, warmly welcoming President Yoon Suk-yol and his wife Kim Ki-eun to their hotel.
This visit marks the first incoming state visit since King Charles's coronation and the second of his reign, with King Charles and Queen Camilla hosting the distinguished guests.
Upon arrival, William and Catherine escorted the President and First Lady to the ceremonial welcome at Horse Guards Parade in central London, where King Charles and Queen Camilla awaited them.
Queen Camilla looked resplendent in a blue dress and coat designed by Anna Valentine, paired with a striking hat adorned with loose feathers by Philip Treacy.
She accessorized her ensemble with a sapphire and diamond brooch once owned by Queen Mary.
A Guard of Honour, comprised of F Company Scots Guards, rendered a royal salute amidst traditional pomp and pageantry, followed by an inspection of the troops by the King and President Yoon on the parade ground.
Subsequently, the two royal couples and their esteemed guests embarked on a carriage procession down the mall to the palace, where they convened for a private lunch.
Later in the evening, a grand banquet is set to take place in the opulent Palace Ballroom, attended by 170 guests in customary white tie and tiara attire.
