1 Why Kate Middleton Broke the Dress Code on her Visit to The V&A
Jestine Boothman edited this page 1 week ago


The Princess of Wales cut a really trendy figure as she checked out the brand-new V&A East Storehouse in London the other day - but one aspect of her outfit appeared to break the dress code.

Kate, 43, marched for her very first engagement of the month - and her first since returning from the half-term break - in a chic trouser suit by designer Alexander McQueen for the event, together with a white scoop-neck top.

For her accessories, the princess opted for a stylish belt, Laura Lombardi chain necklace, and a pair of streamlined black heels from Prada.

But while Kate looked extremely elegant, technically speaking, she did break an obscure design rule throughout her see with her option of shoes.

'We advise wearing practical clothing and flat shoes,' the V&A East Storehouse's website reads. 'The metal grid floor covering is not ideal for stilettos or kittycat heels.'

However, the princess appeared totally at ease and masterfully managed the unequal floors, even while using a pair of difficult heels.

When asked about Kate's choice of shoes, Tristram Hunt, the director of the V&A, informed PEOPLE magazine: 'She is a professional! She handled that!'

He included: 'She had an incredibly energy. She was really energetic and focused. We last saw her about two years ago.

'She keeps this terrific passion and interest in imagination and making and design. It was wonderful to be able to host her.'

The mother-of-three has consistently made wearing heels look simple throughout the years - even while playing sports, wearing pumps on turf and attending horse racing events such as Royal Ascot.

In 2012, Kate even wore heels to play a video game of hockey and, more recently in 2022, kicked a football in heels throughout an engagement with her spouse Prince William.

She even used her beloved shoe in her first images with Prince Louis in 2018 as she stepped outside the Lindo Wing of St .

Depsite misgivings, the princess was such a 'pro' in her heels that she was able to deal with any challenges with ease
