Passing her grandchildren on her way into St George’s Chapel, Kate elegantly slipped one leg behind the other in a swift bob while grandson William bowed his head with a loving smile on his face.

Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie bring on the spring in neutral hues.

The Duchess of Cambridge shone in a bright cream coat by go-to designer Catherine Walker, which she paired with a hat of the same colour that sat atop her neat chignon.

It’s said the 35-year-old always greets Britain’s longest-reigning monarch with this gesture, however it’s not usually performed in the public eye as it only occurs during the first time they meet in the day.

But the title of best dressed undoubtedly fell to The Queen herself, who lit up the day of celebrations in perhaps one of her brightest ensembles yet.
