In a powerful sartorial statement, the Princess of Wales once again showcased her impeccable style and mindful fashion choices as she stepped out in Cardiff, Wales, on October 3.
Princess Kate opted for a classic ensemble that exuded both elegance and purpose to celebrate the beginning of Black History Month, and honour the 75th anniversary of the arrival of HMT Empire Windrush.
The occasion marked a poignant meeting between the Prince and Princess of Wales and members of Windrush Cymru Elders, highlighting the importance of acknowledging and celebrating the contributions of the Windrush generation to British society.
