Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte twin at King Charles III’s coronation
God save McQueen.
Kate Middleton and daughter Princess Charlotte, 8, were in perfect style sync at the historic coronation of King Charles III at Westminster Abbey Saturday, clad in matching looks by the Princess of Wales’ favorite designer.
Middleton, 41, wore an Alexander McQueen dress crafted from ivory silk crepe with silver bullion and threadwork embroidery depicting roses, thistles, daffodils and shamrocks — the national flowers of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, respectively.
Charlotte matched in a mini caped version by the fashion house featuring the same floral motifs.
Both mother and daughter topped off their likeminded looks with Jess Collett x Alexander McQueen headpieces accented with crystals, silver bullion and threadwork leaf embroidery.
As previously reported, the princess is not wearing a tiara today, but she further accessorized with pearl-and-diamond earrings that once belonged to Princess Diana, along with the George VI Festoon Necklace, which was commissioned by King George VI in 1950 for his daughter Princess Elizabeth.
Middleton’s patriotic look is right in line with the red, white and blue color scheme she’s been sporting all week long as a nod to the Union Jack.
The Princess of Wales wore a red Eponine London coat with a blue lining over a white Suzannah dress on Thursday, a black-and-white Jenny Packham dress on Friday morning and a royal blue Self-Portrait dress at night to welcome foreign heads of state to the weekend’s festivities.
Prince William, 40, wore the Ceremonial dress uniform of the Welsh Guards for his father’s big day.
As for Prince George, 9, he’s been recognized with a role as a Page of Honour for his grandfather’s coronation.

Prince Louis, 5, was officially confirmed to attend the event earlier this week after speculation his past antics may have prohibited him from taking part in the celebration.
The Waleses’ youngest child looked smart in a blue Dege and Skinner outfit featuring a tunic with lace details on the collar, cuffs and front.
The Waleses will join Prince Harry for the event, with Meghan Markle staying behind in California after months of speculation about whether the Sussexes would attend the coronation.
The duchess, 41, will remain with Prince Archie, who celebrates his 4th birthday today, and Princess Lilibet, 1, while Harry, 38, reunites with his family.
Following the coronation ceremony, the Prince and Princess of Wales and their children will travel back to Buckingham Palace for a balcony appearance with the new king and queen.
While the coronation itself might be over soon, there’s more royal fashion to look forward to from Middleton throughout the weekend.
Tomorrow, the Waleses are expected to make an appearance at one of the many street parties held across the UK, as well as the coronation concert at Windsor Castle Sunday night.
