Dressing Kate: NYFW 2013

New York Fashion Week 2013 has come and gone and with that comes about a thousand looks that The Duchess of Cambridge could walk off the runway in. We all know Kate looks great in just about everything she puts on; I say “just” because who can forget the blue Erdem dress from Trooping The Colour last year? Believe me, I’m trying to. However, dressing a pregnant Kate is quite different from dressing an incredibly fit Kate.

 I’ve picked out looks from the newly debuted fall collections that would look stunning on the fashionable duchess and the baking royal biscuit. (Trying to avoid the term “baby bump” as much as possible to spare @Heather84A a heart attack). I know she will no longer be pregnant come the fall, but let’s be honest – I would be here all day selecting pieces she would look stunning in on a regular basis. The entire Badgley Mischka, J Mendel Monique Lhuillier and Naeem Kahn collections come to mind..

Badgley Mischka

Wouldn’t be a Kate fashion post without Jenny Packham, right? This coat is to die for

Can Kate please go back to the South Pacific and wear this Jenny Packham gown?

j-mendel-07

J Mendel – we all know how much I love Kate in a classic white coat!

monique lhuillier

Monique Lhuillier – THIS is the money dress. This needs to happen. Get St. James’s Palace on the line, stat.

monique-lhuillier-30

Another absolutely perfect Monique Lhuillier gown

naeem-khan37

Naeem Khan – for early in the pregnancy, the print wouldn’t look too flattering with a big belly

nicole-miller26

A little bit of a risk for HRH with this Nicole Miller dress. Again, great for early on in the pregnancy!

oscar-de-la-renta-38

Oscar de la Renta.. you cannot go wrong with Oscar. Kate cannot go wrong with red. Win win!

rachel-roy-28

Rachel Roy – would be something different for Kate, but I do love this color.

ralph-lauren-39

Ralph Lauren – a designer Kate should be wearing more of. Classic, elegant..perfection.

rebecca-minkoff14

Rebecca Minkoff – the coat.

tadashi-shoji14

Tadashi Shoji..we don’t really see Kate in velvet, could look beautiful on her.

venexia

Venexia..LOVE.

Vera-Wang-RF13-3287-lgn

Again, a bit of a risk for her but you cannot go wrong in Vera Wang! This would be lovely for a royal engagement late in the pregnancy.

zac-posen04

This Zac Posen jacket looks a lot like something we would normally see Kate in. Get in the royal closet, please!

Which of these looks would you like to see Kate in? Who is your favorite designer for the pregnant duchess? Leave some comments!
