The event was at the Royal society of Medicine in London.
It was put together by The Royal foundation of the Duke as well as Duchess of Cambridge as well as Prince Harry. Here you see the Duchess being greeted by Sir Simon Charles Wessely (L), president of the Royal society of Medicine; Peter Fonagy (R), chief executive at The Anna Freud Centre; as well as Lorraine Heggessey, the Royal Foundation’s CEO.

Kensington Palace posted info about the event on Twitter as well as Instagram.
At today’s event, Kate announced the Royal foundation would put together a steering group to look into the best ways “…to support academics, practitioners as well as charities.”
Now to what Kate wore, a minty eco-friendly coat as well as gown evocative of spring as well as possibly Easter eggs.
The bespoke pieces are by Jenny Packham. The coat looks like it may be constructed of a silk blend, with several front panels, an open front with only the ribbon ties as a means of closing the front, as well as pick-stitching in a contrasting thread color on the pocket flaps as well as the front closure. We don’t have a stellar look at the Duchess’s gown today; it does appear to be made of a lighter-weight fabric.
Some of Kate’s previous maternity ensembles by Jenny Packham have shared style elements like take on darts, jewel neckline, a wider front placket on the coat as well as empire waistlines.
Kate carried her Loeffler Randall Tab Clutch for the engagement.
This particular style is no longer available. Shopbop offers the style in a number of colors as well as finishes.
And wore her Gianvito Rossi suede pumps in the praline colorway, the lower-heeled version ($675).
The Duchess wears these most often in the 105mm heel seen below left, and sometimes the 85mm heel shown below right. (They likewise come in 70mm, that’s approximately a 3″ heel.)
Kate likewise had on her Kiki McDonough earrings; it appears she wore the eco-friendly amethyst cushion drops.
Kate’s hair was worn down with a loose curl. The Telegraph reports the color is new.
Today during a see to the Royal society of Medicine the Duchess of Cambridge debuted a new hair colour that seems to be a deeper hue that her typical soft brown shade. Wearing a custom Jenny Packham coat as well as dress, the Duchess’ hair was a gorgeous, rich, chestnut colour- a ideal contrast to her eco-friendly outift.
I am not a great sufficient judge to identify if it is a new shade or the method the sunlight reflected on the Duchess as she left today’s event. I do understand it looked somewhat shorter than it did the last time we saw it worn down.
Here is Kate’s speech in its entirety.

Also today, an update on the Catherine Walker coat worn this past Saturday for the Irish Guards engagement, as well as in January when visiting Stockholm, Sweden.
Several of you commented (wisely so!) on Saturday’s publish about the assertion that Kate’s collar as well as cuffs were by Troy London, saying the company’s detachable collar just didn’t look the exact same as the collar on Kate’s coat. I keep in mind Penelope mentioning this in a comment as well as a number of others shared similar sentiments. After seeing a tweet from Monique Jessen of people (thank you to Laura for sharing the tweet) about this yesterday I emailed Catherine Walker. They tell me the collar as well as cuffs are a fixed part of the garment, not detachable.
The info that the collar as well as cuffs were by Troy London originally came from the company; Troy London emailed me with the info in January when the coat was very first worn. I’m sure it was a error on the company’s part, definitely not anything done intentionally. I do believe it looks like the Duchess wore the Troy collar as well as cuffs with the Ida Sjöstedet coat seen January 31st.
I will be updating the previous posts to show the updated information.

Finally, news about a new webpage dedicated to infant Cambridge #3.
The new page is part of the official Royal household website. This went up a week back today; among other things, it seems a extremely smart method to try as well as handle the info flow as well as the media when the new Prince or Princess decides to make his/her existence known.
We’ll see you tomorrow for Kate’s engagements with William as they take part in events celebrating the Commonwealth!
