Kate Middleton surprised some royal watchers when she broke from her traditional Easter day look on April 5.
The Princess of Wales, 44, wore a cream-colored Self Portrait ensemble featuring a tailored blazer with lace appliqués, a belt, and a calf-length skirt while attending the royal family's Easter day celebration. She topped off the monochromatic outfit with a matching teardrop-shaped hat decorated with leaf appliqués by Juliette Botterill. The London-based milliner is a favorite of Kate’s and other royal family members, including Princess Beatrice and Zara Tindall. As for accessories, Kate wore Ralph Lauren pumps, a cross pendant necklace and pearl drop earrings that were once a wedding gift to Queen Elizabeth II by the Hakim of Bahrain for her 1947 wedding, according to Harper's Bazaar. Her small toffee-colored purse was from London designer DeMellier.

While Kate looked glowing and beautiful as she attended the Easter Matins church service at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle on April 5, royal watchers were curious to know if she would be wearing her signature Easter color — blue.

During the family’s last Easter appearance in 2023, Kate wore a royal blue Catherine Walker & Co. coat dress with a matching hat and purse. (The coat dress was a re-wear from the 2022 Commonwealth Day Service.)

In 2022, Kate stunned in a baby blue Emilia Wickstead coat with an Emmy London Natasha clutch. (The Princess first wore the coatdress in Luxembourg in 2017.) Before that, in 2019, Kate stepped out in a blue-grey Alexander McQueen coat dress with a Jane Taylor hat, which she previously wore for a 2014 Easter celebration in Australia.

In addition to Kate sticking to blue hues, which typically coordinate with her husband, Prince William, and kids, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, she also seems to use Easter as a chance to recycle some of her favorite pieces from her closet. Although she departed from the color blue for the 2026 Easter service, her outfit was first worn during a royal outing with Princess Anne in April 2022.

Kate stepping out for Easter with the royal family was a big deal after skipping the two previous years. Princess Kate, William, 43, and their kids opted out of the celebration in 2024, weeks after Kate announced she was undergoing cancer treatment. The following year, their family spent a quiet holiday in Norfolk months after announcing Kate’s cancer was in remission.
Whether or not they choose to attend Easter with their extended family, William and Kate tend to step back from their busy schedules during the month of April while their kids are on break from school. In 2025, the family of five went on a ski trip to the French Alps, and then William took George on a special trip to Paris, France, to support their favorite soccer team, Aston Villa, in their match against Paris Saint-Germain. The father and son were also spotted in the stands less than a week later during the rematch in Birmingham.

"I thought, it’s been 43 years since anything like this has happened in my generation as a Villa fan, and I want George to experience a night out away from home in a big European competition," William told TNT Sports at the time, referring to the team's first European quarterfinal in over four decades. "I hope it's not 43 years until the next time it happens, but I think those memories are really important to create and to bring him along tonight is a big deal for me."
