The outfit could in fact be seen as a way to send messages, not only to her family but also to those who have been following with concern the health issues of the Princess of Wales.

Let’s start with the color, the lilacThe nuance symbolizes theunion between body and mindwhere rationality controls emotionality. But not only that. According to other readings, the shade would be used as a protective amulet against darkness and evil forces.

If it is a olive branch against the Sussexes or simply a “free” brand after the Duchess moved to California, we cannot know. We fear that everyone will embroider on it, depending on the team they feel they belong to (Wales vs Sussex).

Kate, present at Wimbledon both as a huge tennis fan but above all as the godmother of the organizing club, she had her daughter accompany her to the final Charlotte and from the sister Pippa Middleton.
