The Duchess of Cambridge's Daring New Approach To Diplomatic Dressing




Some may say the Duchess of Cambridge's wardrobe - whilst diplomatically strong and stable - is a bit staid. She knows the designers she likes and trusts and relies on them heavily for official occasions (and who could blame her?) However, her evening ensemble in Poland last night proves she still has the element of sartorial surprise firmly within her grasp.

Attending a party at the British ambassador to Poland's residence in honour of The Queen's birthday, the Duchess chose striking, white mid-length cocktail dress with architectural black detailing by popular Polish designer Gosia Baczynska.

Black-edged pleats brought a graphic quality, while a floral black appliqué detail at the waist softened the look.





The deep V-neckline delicate framed her contemporary pearl necklace - the same she first debuted during a visit to Paris in March this year - and also marks the second rather more risque neckline to be worn by the Duchess of late. Last week she chose a plunging Marchesa gown - a marked departure from the conservative necklines she usually favours for evening events - whilst hosting Spain's Queen Letizia and King Felipe at Buckingham Palace.

Finishing off her get-up, the Duchess wore her hair tied up in a neat, but low chignon, all hair swept back from her face, and a pair of chic black heels with straps around her ankles. It is believed this was a bespoke creation for the Duchess, organised by her stylist, Natasha Archer, based upon a dress from Baczynska's autumn/winter 2016/17 collection. Baczynska was in attendance to see her design take centre stage.
