Kate Middleton Dazzles in Sparkly Green Gown & Pays Tribute to the Queen During Jamaica Visit

Kate Middleton is pulling out all the stops for her Caribbean tour with Prince William.

First, she stole the show with her blue floral Tory Burch dress. Then, she sparkled in her pink glitter dress. And now, the Duchess of Cambridge is turning heads with her dazzling emerald green gown.

During her visit to Jamaica, the royal and her husband went to King's House, home of the Governor-General of Jamaica, Sir Patrick Allen, for a dinner event. And for the special occasion, Middleton paid tribute to the country's flag by wearing a green, off-the-shoulder Jenny Packham gown—complete with accessories that she borrowed from Queen Elizabeth.

If you look closely, there are two brooches on her dress. On top, she wore the Royal Family Order badge, featuring a portrait of the queen, and below it, she donned the Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Victoria Order star.

To complete the glamorous look, the duchess wore matching earrings—also on loan from the queen—and styled her hair in an intricate bun.

During their visit to Jamaica, Middleton and Prince William shared photos on their official Instagram, including snaps of the special dinner. They released a statement that read, "Already in our short time here in Jamaica, Catherine and I are delighted to have felt what Bob Marley described so many years ago—the spirit of ‘One love’ that Jamaica has given to the world and which makes this country so special. As we heard for ourselves at the cradle of reggae music last night in Trench Town, when the Rasta drums start playing, you really do know how to have a good time."

It continues, "Here in Kingston today we’ve met students and staff at Shortwood Teachers’ College, striving to give children a strong foundation for life; Doctors and nurses in Spanish Town Hospital working selflessly to care for the sick and vulnerable despite the challenges of the pandemic; And the Jamaican Defence Force working hand in glove with local communities in Flankers to prepare young people for employment and adult life. We deeply admire their dedication and commitment. Catherine and I only wish we had more time to spend with you all in Jamaica."

We're definitely seeing a trend with Middleton's latest shimmery ensembles. Here's hoping it continues well beyond her Caribbean tour.
