    On April 5, 2026, Princess Kate joined the Royal Family for their annual Easter Matins church service at St. George's Chapel inside Windsor Castle. The Princess of Wales was positively glowing as she arrived alongside Prince William and their three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

    Princess Kate pulled a classic Self-Portrait dress from her closet—last worn in April 2022 for a visit to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists alongside Princess Anne. The smart cream dress gives the appearance of being a fitted long-sleeve jacket and a long flared skirt, cinched at the waist with a matching belt and featuring an embroidered bodice.

    The Princess of Wales accessorized her sleek recycled outfit with Ralph Lauren Celia Pumps in Rl Gold, which have sadly sold-out in this particular shade, but remain available in black. Kate's Juliette Botterill Oak Leaf Teardrop Hat in an oyster shade was the ideal accoutrement to her Self-Portrait dress.
