Kate Middleton brought her signature style to the COP26 Summit.
The Duchess of Cambridge attended the United Nation’s Climate Change Conference in Glasgow alongside husband Prince William on Monday wearing a dress from London-based fashion brand Eponine’s spring 2020 collection.
Middleton’s dress was a wool crepe maxidress in a cobalt blue with three-quarter sleeves and black button accents. The dress — a new one for Middleton, who is known for recycling her outfits — falls in line with the duchess’ style of wearing colorful coat dresses at her royal engagements.
The duchess paired the look with her Poppy Code Breakers Brooch, which is said to be a tribute to her grandmother, Valerie Glassborow, who served in World War II as a code breaker at Bletchley Park, the primary center for Allied code breaking during the war.
