Kate Middleton has started her Caribbean tour on a strong fashion note, dazzling in two dresses in one day while visiting Belize.
Kate and her husband Prince William are touring the Caribbean, visiting Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas from March 19 to 26, to mark the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. They spent their first full day of engagements visiting a cacao farm and taking part in the Festival of Garifuna Culture in Hopkins.
While Kate wowed in a blue summer dress early in the day, it was her evening look that has made headlines already, as she stepped out in a stunning fuchsia sequinned gown.
Kate pulled out the stops with a hot pink metallic gown by The Vampire's Wife, the celebrated label owned by Susie Cave. Kate is clearly a fan of the brand, having worn an emerald green creation by The Vampire's Wife while visiting Dublin in 2020 during the couple's tour of Ireland.
Kate chose The Light Sleeper Dress, a gown that captures the brand's mix of prairie femininity and Gothic drama. Her version featured a boat neckline, ruffled sleeves, a fitted bodice and a tied belt at the waist, all in a radiant pink sequin finish. Prices vary for The Light Sleeper Dress, but a floral print version costs €2.011,95.
She paired this with a Mayan embroidered clutch bag in black and white, a nod to her host country where she had just visited the Caracol Mayan archaeological site in the Chiquibul Forest in Chiquibul, Belize.
She added a pair of gold 'Mimi' heeled sandals by Jimmy Choo, and a pair of gold disc earrings by O'Nitaa, featuring intricate jewel embellishments.
Her hair was worn sleek and straight, a change for the Duchess, and tucked behind one ear. Her makeup was fresh and balmy, with a shimmery gold eyeshadow and bronzer adding even more glamour to her look.
