Yes, Kate Middleton Has Mini Tennis Players All Over Her Dress — How Delightful Is That?
Kate Middleton teamed up with Wimbledon champion Andy Murray to surprise young tennis fans at Bond Primary School in Mitcham, south London, via video call. The duchess chose the perfect outfit, as she so often does, for the occasion: a spunky HVN shirtdress with a retro tennis-player print all over it. Though we could only catch a glimpse at the top half of her look, it was enough to know Kate had, in fact, pulled out all the stops for her brief appearance. She tied back her hair and even accessorized with her green gemstone drop Monica Vinader Siren earrings, which retail for $175 and matched just right with the emerald shade of her dress.
Even though Wimbledon will not take place this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Kate used this opportunity to proudly display her green-and-purple bow pin, which represents her role as patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, an honor passed down by Queen Elizabeth II. Scroll through to watch the video of Kate introducing Andy to a group of excited students, then see where you can still shop her adorable dress before it sells out, and browse inspired pieces we found that will help you get the look if you're a tennis fan with a quirky sense of style.
