On January 15, 2026, the Princess of Wales hosted England’s women’s rugby union team at Windsor Castle to celebrate their World Cup victory in September 2025. As Patron of the Rugby Football Union (RFU), she met with officials and staff from the organisation, as well as the 32-player squad. For the occasion, the Princess wore a red suit by Alexander McQueen.
Alexander McQueen Suit









Lovely fitting suit, not a fan of the downward angle of the hem, but it does provide interest to it. Her hair is her choice however it lacks the bounce a shoulder length would give which is more attractive. I find this length does not enchance her face as well.
ردحذفYes interesting jacket idea. When it’s just the jacket without a human in, it’s obviously a design idea that looks good. But as soon as it’s on a human, it looks misbuttoned to my eyes, both on Catherine and the model. The red and white are probably chosen to go with the navy uniform of the rugby players for the full British flag colours. I like how you wrote your thoughts on her hair; very fair and kindly stated 19:35.
حذفI don't like these jackets with an uneven hemline, just as I don't like skirts with an uneven hem, but the red color suits her. In certain royal families it is a custom to laugh with their mouth wide open. To me it looks not done, but I suppose it is because of my age and because of my education.
ردحذفAgree !!
حذفRe mouth open, I guess when there are a team of photographers taking 1000 pics in the few minutes they’re authorised to click away, the set of photos is then enormous for the photographer to select from to present to their editor or to add to a site where they can be sold. So a photo with a mouth open can end up being a focus photo, but it was simply a moment of normal conversation / greeting / surprise / laughter which we will all do but not hey focussed on! So it looks like a major representation when it’s actually a micro second in time.
حذفAgree about the smiling with the mouth wide open. It is just the eagerness to be photographed smiling, it is so fake. I really really dislike it.
حذفElegant and professional. Stunning!
ردحذفJe ziet duidelijk waar het haarstuk erin is gezet, jammer heeft ze niet nodig. Een korter minder dik haar zou haar ook goed staan.
ردحذفThe fashion highlight for me here is the delightful uniform of the women’s team. Love this fresh navy and white incl white sneakers. The scarf is lovely especially when worn as intended around the neck.
ردحذفLovely pictures of a joyfull gathering. Very good red suit! Not a fan of the hairlength.
ردحذفShe's looking better than she has in a very long time. Almost pre-her diagnosis.
ردحذفBut way too thin in my opinion
حذفGreat rewear. Don’t like the blouse. Too close to the jacket lapel, odd neckline as a result
ردحذفCH
It’s a lovely suit,but it’s hanging on her. The length of the trouser is draping on the floor. I think Catherine suits the straighter leg fit,it gives her a far better shape.
ردحذفWe know Catherine has cut back on her duties for obvious reasons, but that gives her the opportunity to really polish her look when she is on duty. We can see her hair line is in need of a touch up. She certainly needs a make up shake up, this look has her looking pale and gaunt. I lovely red lip and blush would have brought life to her face. It’s the finer details that make an event memorable for the participants.
Lowri.
Agree on all points
حذفI have the feeling that after her procedures/sickness she wanted/wants to change her style and the looks from last year haven't been her usual nor a very different/distinctive style just yet, this includes the length and color of her hair.
ردحذفI also have the feeling that Queen Letizia is onderging a similar proces, after leaving her signature heels, I mis the wow factor in both ladies... Or it could also be that in changing??

I too miss the glamour that both ladies used to display in their regular outfits. While I like this outfit, I really wish the Princess would cut even a few inches off her hair. It would look so much better.
حذفI don't like uneven hem's on dress and jacket hemlines, but this jacket is the exception. The first time the Princess wore it I loved it and the same now. Its distinctive and different which I find appealing. Not just another red jacket. The close up photo, shows it may not fit quite as well, understandable for obvious reasons. I love this shade of red, she wears this color well. Her earrings are pretty, not keen on her necklace. The blouse, not sure why but I don't like the blouse with this jacket. Its great to see her out at this function and looking well.
ردحذفGreat looking suit and red is her color.

The style of the jacket is too baggy on her; red shoes look a bit cheap. The blouse looks like a bit of an after thought. Perhaps she needs to follow Sophie's lead it is a sporting group; plain trousers and a nice sports jacket and trainers (Tara)
