Overview

• The Princess of Wales visited Home-Start Oxford to promote a new animated film series from her Centre for Early Childhood that helps families build social and emotional skills.
• She chose the same Victoria Beckham trouser suit she debuted in May when presenting the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design at a British Fashion Council event.
• The timing aligned with the launch of Victoria Beckham’s Netflix docuseries, a coincidence many outlets characterized as a subtle show of support.
• Retailers reported Kate’s olive version sold out or low in stock as olive green trends for autumn, underscoring the continuing “Kate effect.”
• During a stay-and-play session, children left flour on the suit and used a toy syringe, while Kate accessorized with Ralph Lauren pumps, a Daniella Draper pendant engraved with her children’s initials, and Kiki McDonough earrings.
