Kate Middleton arrived to host her first-ever royal Christmas carol concert on Wednesday wearing full festive attire and jewelry with a subtle nod to the Queen.
The Duchess of Cambridge, whose carol service titled "Together At Christmas" will be broadcast in the UK on December 24, arrived at Westminster Abbey wearing a bright red coatdress designed by one of her favorite British labels, Catherine Walker, according to Vogue.
The festive look came with a neat bow and she kept up to the color scheme with red suede pumps.
Adding a slightly more personal touch, Kate accessorized with a pair of sapphire and diamond fringe earrings from the Queen's own collection, People reported. According to the publication, the earrings were once owned by the Queen Mother, who died in 2002.
Prince William, who arrived alongside his wife to support her on her big night, added his own festive style — his black suit popped with the addition of a bright red tie.
He also wasn't the only royal to attend the event, which celebrated the work of charity workers, volunteers, teachers, and emergency responders during the pandemic according to Westminster Abbey's website. Other family members to join the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge included Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice, and Zara and Mark Tindall.
Her siblings, Pippa and James Middleton, as well as her mother Carole also made appearances at the carol service, which saw musical performances from Ellie Goulding, Leona Lewis, and Tom Walker, according to The Independent.
According to Town and Country, the Duchess of Cambridge included a personal message in the program for the evening. She wrote: "Christmas is a time when we can reflect on the past, listen to one another, focus on the relationships that nurture us and build our resilience, so we can look forward to a brighter shared future."
"My hope is that this Service creates a moment for us to do this together. Over the next hour we will celebrate the power of this time of year. And I wish you all the very best for the year ahead," Kate added.
"Together At Christmas" will be broadcast on ITV at 7:30 p.m. GMT on Christmas Eve.
