Members of the royal family usually attend the annual horse racing event at Ascot, Berkshire Racecourse, getting into the carriage and adhering to the formal dress code, hats and everything in between.
And so it was also for this 2022 edition: Kate Middleton attended Royal Ascot with Prince William, elegant with a black and white polka dot dress by Alessandra Rich, paired with a wide-brimmed hat adorned with white flowers by Sally-Ann Provan.
She even accessorized it with brown suede pumps and a matching clutch.
As for the jewelry, she wore pearl and diamond earrings that once belonged to Princess Diana.

It is difficult not to see in this choice a tribute to Lady D who wore a white dress with black polka dots at Royal Ascot in 1988 but it must also be said that Kate Middleton seems to be a fan of Alessandra Rich and the designer's polka dot models.
At Prince Philip's funeral service earlier this year, she wore a similar suit, this time in a black background dress with white micro polka dots.
On the fashion sites there is already a hunt for the lowcost version of the dress: very similar is on sale at 133 dollars (Giulia Allerta) on wolfandbadger.com and with a beautiful variant with an American neckline (Pretty Garden) on Amazon at 40 dollars
