Style with meaning

For the solo outing she chose a cobalt blue Eponine coat dress—a color paying subtle tribute to the NHS—paired with beige Gianvito Rossi suede pumps. Her gold Vanleles bee hoop earrings were worn without the honeycomb charms so the bees were the focus, a deliberate nod to Manchester’s worker bee emblem. She finished the look with an Astley Clarke lapis lazuli pendant, her familiar ring stack and loose waves.

A moving moment

During the visit Kate shared an emotional exchange with 30-year-old Claire Lorente and her family, telling Claire "This is your day" just before the patient rang a bell to mark the end of her breast cancer treatment—a celebrated moment at the centre.
