Kate Middleton's woven black Temperley London fit-and-flare frock has sold out on the brand's website in less than 24 hours. The duchess debuted the chic look on Wednesday in her third appearance since being treated for hyperemesis gravidarum—the same condition she had during her pregnancy with son Prince George, 15 months.
The dress, part of the brand's pre-fall 2014 collection, is a sultry little black number with long sleeves, a soft V-neck and woven panels exposing a nude layer underneath. The duchess paired the look with suede black platforms and a beaded envelope clutch—proving once again that she is an expert at mixing textures. The black-and-cream confection will run you $675, a pretty penny but considerably less than the dresses she wore earlier this week.
In her first public appearances since announcing her second pregnancy, Middleton chose her signature designer favorites, sporting an Alexander McQueen coatdress and matching hat to welcome Tony Tan Keng Yam, Singapore's president, to London at the Royal Garden Hotel on Tuesday. Middleton seemed happy and healthy at the engagement, which she attended alongside a beaming Prince William. The pair will welcome their second child in April of next year—for now, we can only glimpse a hint of a royal baby bump in the fitted McQueen frock.
Later that evening Middleton stepped out again, this time donning a pale blue Jenny Packham wrap dress with a peek-a-boo slit to the Natural History Museum in London for the 2014 Wildlife Photograph Awards. Kate paired the look with simple nude peep-toe pumps, a dainty Monica Vinader bib necklace and matching diamond earrings. (Sorry duchessnistas, the necklace has already sold out online, but the earrings are still up for grabs!)
We can't wait to see what Kate will step out in next, especially as her burgeoning bump begins to show. What do you think of her maternity style?
