Thrifty Kate strikes again! The Duchess of Cambridge wowed the crowds with her cream, shapely coat at the Queen’s final Buckingham Palace Garden Party of the season.
But there were murmurs in the crowd among onlookers that the svelte Alexander McQueen coat was awfully familiar…
That’s because the royal mother of two donned the statement piece at one of the most important events in her life: the christening of her firstborn son and future king, Prince George!
She hasn’t been seen in the cream coat since the all-important church service in 2013, but decided the garden party was the perfect opportunity to dust it off and give it another turn.
Here’s where we’ve seen the coat before! Catherine wore it on Prince George’s special day.
Duchess Catherine even decided to pair the outfit with a Jane Taylor had once again.
Kate is known for her recycled sartorial choices, having previously reworn garments by McQueen, Gina Foster and Amelia Wickstead.
Catherine looked a vision in her special coat.
The garden party is a summer event where the Queen graciously opens the grounds of Buckingham House and invites about 8000 members of the public to tea.
The event will see 27,000 teas, 20,000 sandwiches and 20,000 cake slices served to eager guests.

Prince William was also in attendance at the party.
Surprisingly it’s apparently the first time the Duke of Cambridge has ever attended one of the Queen’s garden parties.
Perhaps Kate finally convinced him to come after attending the event four times herself!
