But they’re not the only ones. Princess Anne is also on the case, and Princess Beatrice has popped out to show off her Anne of Green Gables costume.
If Kate’s ensemble looks familiar, it’s because she wore it to an Order of the Garter ceremony about a million years ago, which you probably want to revisit because Sophie looks totally wacky and there’s a lot of eye-banging (not on Sophie’s part). I would like to draw your attention to Kate’s clutch though – it is CHARMING and has a PRINT. Let’s take our victories where we find them!
We’ve also got some video, which is always exciting, and interesting from a logistical standpoint:
