As the state visit from South Korea begins, the Prince and Princess of Wales put on a united front to welcome President Yoon Suk Yeol and the First Lady at their hotel in London.
Princess Catherine, 41, looked like a future queen and ruled supremely in red. The princess wore a flowing cape dress by Catherine Walker with an oversized bow across the neckline as part of her cherry ensemble.

The mother-of-three accessorised her festive ensemble with a magnificent hat that rested elegantly atop her tidy, balletic chignon, and ruby red heels.
In a dapper navy suit, Prince William echoed his wife’s royal style. A plain silk tie in the same shade complemented the romantic red tones in her attire.
Princess Catherine and Prince William’s coordinated dressing
The royal power couple’s coordinated wardrobes have been well-observed by fans on a number of occasions, including their famous red moment at the Princess of Wales’ Together at Christmas concerts and Prince William’s subtle matching of his ties to Princess Catherine’s dresses.
We previously sought the professional advice of relationship consultant Mairead Molloy regarding the Prince and Princess of Wales’ strategic use of colour.
“Mirroring your partner’s fashion choices is related to having a keen sense of empathy, and signifies a high level of happiness and content within a relationship,” Mairead explains. “It can also be a signifier of a special bond between a couple.”
“Unconscious attire changes can lead to harmonious dressing, which usually occurs approximately half a year into a partnership,” Mariead said, attributing the trend to a wish to feel “closer to our partner.” – said Molloy for Hello!.
The royals’ coordinated wardrobe choices may also represent their unanimity as senior royals, laying the groundwork for their future regal duties as King and Queen.
