Kate Middleton’s latest sartorial choice is aimed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The Princess of Wales, who wore a gray Bella Fraud suit during her engagement at Two Mills in Kent and Suffolk, wanted to look patriotic.
Fashion expert Laura Craig told the Daily Mail: “Given that nothing in Kate’s wardrobe is worn by accident, it’s hard not to question her design – and timing – in choosing to use a fabric as codified and patriotic as the Prince of Wales check.”
The expert said: “While clever, it is often avoided by those in public roles because the controls do not always photograph well and can appear blurry. Clearly, this was less worrying than the message it conveyed.”
“The message is: here are the true bastions of the British Royal Family, in all their unconditional dedication to king and country. Any other suitor can return to their box or take a plane to Montecito,” he said.
