Kate sported a military-style red coat by Catherine Walker \u2014 a favorite designer of Diana\u2019s \u2014 and matching pillbox hat by Gina Foster, reminiscent of an ensemble Di wore at Birmingham Airport in 1984.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3894\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/10\/Kate-and-Diana-3.jpg\" alt=\"Kate and Diana\" width=\"1024\" height=\"784\" data-gz_credit=\"Getty Images\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>THE CROWN JEWELS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kate doesn\u2019t wear tiaras often, but when she does, she likes to make a statement. She\u2019s worn Diana\u2019s favorite, the Lover\u2019s Knot, to several royal functions, including a State Banquet at Buckingham Palace on October 23, 2018. The Lover&#8217;s Knot Tiara was commissioned for Queen Mary in 1913 from Britain&#8217;s House of Garrard. It consists of diamonds and a collection of 19 hanging pearls, all set in silver and gold. Later it was handed down to Queen Elizabeth. She then eventually gave the tiara to her daughter-in-law, Diana, as a long-term loan on her wedding day, making it an especially sentimental piece.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3901\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/10\/Kate-DIanna-7.jpg\" alt=\"Kate and Diana\" width=\"743\" height=\"1300\" data-gz_credit=\"Getty Images\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>REGAL HUE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kate popped in a bright purple Issa dress as she celebrated National Canada Day in July 2011.

During a visit to Howe Barracks in May 1995, Diana inspected members of the Queen&#8217;s and Royal Hampshire Regiment while wearing a Versace suit and a hat by Philip Somerville.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3899\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/10\/kate-and-Diana-6.jpg\" alt=\"Kate and Diana\" width=\"916\" height=\"1301\" data-gz_credit=\"Getty Images\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In February 2011, the Duchess of Cambridge visited her alma mater, the University of St Andrews, while wearing a red button-up skirt suit with a peplum hem by Luisa Spagnol, styled with a black belt, black turtleneck, black opaque tights and black Aquatalia boots. The Princess of Wales wore a similar orange ensemble by Versace, styled similarly, visiting Liverpool sixteen years prior.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3904\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/10\/Kate-DIana.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"745\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>SOMBER STYLE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In 2016 during a Remembrance Sunday service at the Cenotaph, Kate kept her look stylish yet somber wearing a black Diane von Furstenberg coat adorned with a red poppies along with a John Boyd wide-brimmed topper. At the same ceremony in 1991, which pays tribute to those who have died since the First World War serving Britain, Diana wore a nearly identical ensemble.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3906\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2020\/10\/Kate-Diana-8.jpg\" alt=\"Kate and Diana\" width=\"858\" height=\"1300\" data-gz_credit=\"Getty Images\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>MAD FOR PLAID<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In what would become a staple piece in Kate&#8217;s closet, this blue and green tartan Alexander McQueen coat made its debt on the royal in 2012 at St. Andrews.
