And we’re off.
Kate Middleton looked as radiant as ever in red (a departure from her usual shades of blue) as she and Prince William made their Royal Ascot 2023 debut at the horse race as the Prince and Princess of Wales on Friday.
Kate wore a red Alexander McQueen dress, turning to her favorite label for the event the British fashion house, who was also behind her wedding gown.
The Duchess of Cambridge paired the classic chic crimson faux wrap dress with a matching floral hat by one of her go-to fascinator designers, Philip Treacy.
The mom of three accessorized with gold statement earrings and a paper thin clutch while Prince William looked dapper in a classic suit and black top hat for the fourth day of the races.

The royal’s supporters approved of her bold color choice with one tweeting, “The Princess of Wales is giving Queen Energy with her color choices. And I’m here for it!”
Middleton always makes a sartorial splash at the famed horse races heavily attended by royals and socialites.
The royal made her debut in 2016 and has donned some of her best fascinators and dresses for the occasion ever since – including a particularly memorable baby blue Philip Treacy hat in 2019.
