Kate Middleton Wore a Trendy Autumn Colour With Her Go-To Heel Style
Kate Middleton has never been one to shy away from bright colours any time of year, autumn included. And she always seems to be attuned to the current season's colour trends and undoubtedly furthers them when she wears them. This time around, that colour is marigold.
The Princess of Wales visited a hospital today, wearing a pleated golden-yellow midi dress that resembled the colour of a changing leaf. She paired the Karen Millen dress with her favourite heels to wear with dresses and everything else: high pointed-toe pumps. They're as classic as shoes get, and her frequent use of them proves their versatility. But back to the marigold of it all.
Marigold pieces (and often full looks) made frequent appearances on the fall/winter 2022 runways, and the colour has begun popping up on the high street as well. There are many shades of yellow out there, so if you want a visual example, google "marigold flowers." You'll find that the colour is more muted than yellow but less dull than mustard. It's a happy colour that feels appropriate for fall in every way.
Scroll to see autumn runway examples of marigold and shop chic pieces if you're into it.
