Kate Middleton's Trooping the Colour outfits are always the picture of sophistication and style.
From chic summer dresses to smart pastel blazers, the Princess of Wales always gets a round of applause for her looks on the Buckingham Palace balcony.
Middleton has been a staple at the Royal event since 2011, when she made her debut shortly after marrying Prince William. Over the years, Middleton has stepped out on the balcony while pregnant, with an infant and now waves to crowds with her three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Middleton's 2024 appearance was more special than ever, given the fact that she has been out of the public eye for months amid her cancer treatment. When the Princess of Wales is in attendance at an event, you can ensure all eyes will be on her (and whatever vibrant and showstopping ensemble she chooses to rock). And the Trooping the Colour ceremony is no different!
Trooping of Colour is a military ceremony that's been a staple of the family since the 1800s. It is usually used to mark the sovereign's birthday.
Along with the spectacle and grandiose events during this ceremony, everyone adores seeing the sleek and vibrant looks the royals don on the big day — especially Kate Middleton! Ever since her debut in 2011, she's wowed in some chic, colorful looks that instantly become fan favorites.
From her Barbiecore ensembles to the silky dress everyone forgot about, Kate has rocked quite a few unique looks for Trooping the Colour.
Check out every single look Kate has worn to the Trooping of Colour ceremony since her debut in 2011 below:
