THE NATIONAL ANTHEM | While his parents sang the national anthem - which happens to be dedicated to his great-grandmother - Prince George was clearly waiting for the singing to stop and the rugby to start!

THE CAMBRIDGES | The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their son, Prince George, watched England play Wales during the 2022 Six Nations

WALK, WALK, FASHION BABY | For her first match as Patron, the Duchess of Cambridge wore a new houndstooth coat from Holland Cooper - the "Knightsbridge Coat" - over a black turtleneck and black trousers. In addition, Catherine wore her Gianvito Rossi "Piper" heels and her Accessorize "Twisted Circle Drop" earrings. She also carried the mini "Holly" bag from Tusting and a scarf, possibly the English Rugby Fan scarf, which she later wore

I think Catherine's outfit will be similar to the ones she's sworn in the past to accompany William in his role as Patron of the Welsh Rugby Union. The only difference is that she's now a Patron in her own right. So I expect one of her shorter coats (worn closed) over a dress or her new trouser/blazer combo. It might be slightly too cold for a blazer especially for a stadium. She's worn blazers this winter seasons but she wasn't spending a lot of time outside or a stadium so I'm leaning more towards her shorter coats with tights or something. This ended up being so rambly lol

I agree! I don't think she'll be doing anything other than watching so she doesn't need to go very formal!

What do you think Catherine will wear on Saturday? Do you think it will just be the same kind of outfit that was worn to the euros

Essentially, yes. If you think of all the outfits she's worn to sporting events before, bar Wimbledon, they fit the same vibe. The Olympic and Paralympics were predominantly jeans, a top, and blazer. The Euros were a blouse, a blazer, and trousers. The Commonwealth Games were a shirt and jeans. The Rugby world cup is the outlier, with Kate wearing a blue coat over a black dress, a black top and trousers with a red scarf, a grey coat and jeans. I imagine it will be some form of black trousers/jeans, a black polo top, and a bright blazer or coat

Did you see Catherine wore Holland Cooper yesterday and looked unreal😍

I DID AND I LOVED IT. Turns out Holland Cooper is fast becoming one of my favourite Kate brands because all of her Holland Cooper choicees have been stunning so far but I think yesterday's coat was my second favourite (after her Cruella look). Also, I was totally right with my trousers, black turtleneck, and bright coat/blazer prediction
