Kate Middleton Looked Radiant in Stella McCartney at Archie's Christening

Kate Middleton is an expert at christening ceremonies, having already baptized her three kids (opens in new tab). Today, however, the Duchess of Cambridge was simply a spectator, enjoying the religious festivities for Harry and Meghan's son Archie. The royal family and a handful of other guests gathered at the queen's private chapel in Windsor Castle to christen the two-month-old baby boy.

Though the whole ceremony was held in private, photos were finally released. While Meghan wore a white Dior dress, Kate was appeared in Archie's officially christening photos wearing a perfect pink Stella McCartney dress, which she paired with a red headband and red shoes. The dress was very different from the Alexander McQueen ensembles (opens in new tab) Kate wore to her own children's christenings. For those ceremonies, Kate always wore off-white dresses, perhaps as a way to match her children's gowns (opens in new tab). Today though, the Duchess went for a bright pop of color, which fit right in with those summertime vibes.
