The cigaret pants Kate wore are fine and her whole look was fine. And when I was in an office, I’d wear cigaret pants on fridays so I would still look good going to happy hour after work. However, if I was going to a job interview or a PowerPoint presentation for the “VIPs”, no way would I wear cigaret pants.
I think Kate should have looked more professional with looser pants and perhaps a scarf because of her position and who she was meeting.
Kate is dressing like she does when she goes to a daycare to mix with the kids and meet with staff. The difference is very subtle.
I would say maybe an actual pantsuit would have been better on this occasion. Good points made by both of you. It's apparently actually a new Alexander McQueen blazer, not a rewear as was originally reported. Her previous one was white; this is ivory (possibly even bespoke).
Would love to see her tame her hair for these meetings, too.
