On February 9, 2009, Middleton arrived at the National Maritime Museum of Cornwall wearing a Hobbs London Celeste coat in Chestnut brown.
In 1981, Diana wore a shocking black ballgown to London's Goldsmith's Hall, and Kate Middleton did the same thing almost 30 years later.
Princess Diana made headlines in June 1990 wearing this provocative, Barbiecore-style skirt suit. Kate Middleton did the same in 2015 with her hot pink Mulberry coat.
