The Duchess of Cambridge, née Kate Middleton, has officially joined the workwear brigade, choosing yet another tailored skirt suit for a work outing.

Kate donned a tomato red suit by Armani Collezioni; the lower-priced line from the Italian brand. Her jacket (which is still available to buy) featured ruched detailing and was worn with a tight-fitting pencil skirt.

As always, Kate chose her trusty nude accessories, wearing Rupert Sanderson pumps and carrying an envelope clutch from Etui.

The Duchess joined Princes William and Harry for the official opening of The Global Academy. The new school is working in partnership with the royal trio’s Heads Together organisation to include an hour of mental wellbeing on the weekly curriculum.

This morning, they visited students looking to enter the world of media and sat in on Global radio stations LBC, Capital and Heart’s breakfast shows.

Today’s look marks the sixth time the Duchess of Cambridge has worn a skirt suit in 2017 alone. Although she has previously recycled her outfits, the Armani design was a new addition to Kate’s wardrobe.

This week has been a busy one for the royals. Prince Harry opened up about his mental health struggles in a revealing interview while William spoke to Lady Gaga about removing the stigmas surrounding mental illness.

Kate praised Harry for talking publicly about his mother’s death, calling his bravery “brilliant”.

The Duchess is expected to attend the London Marathon this Sunday in support of the ten runners competing for Heads Together.
