Kate Middleton Wears A Gray Coat Dress & Fascinator Hat For The Nigerian State Visit
Throughout the years, royal family fans tend to look forward to state visits in the UK, where the monarchy welcomes leaders from other countries. The events involved in these visits often require stylish outfits from notable members of the family, including the Princess of Wales.
Earlier this month, for the Nigerian state visit, where the President and First Lady of the country visited the UK, Kate stood alongside her husband, Prince William, to welcome the couple to Windsor Castle. She wore a long, gray coat dress with white details along the collar and white buttons. The coat dress was tailored to fit her slim figure, and she paired it with a matching fascinator hat.
To accessorize, the mom-of-three carried a small black designer bag and wore matching gray high heels.
Social Media Users Slam Kate's 'Flight Attendant' Outfit

Kate has become known as one of the most well-dressed members of the royal family, starting trends, recycling great pieces, and more. However, after seeing this look, fans were not into it and even began comparing her outfit to something a flight attendant would wear.
"The attire!" wrote an Instagram user. "Like a flight attendant."
"What a ridiculous hat," commented another, as one user called her look "something a 1950s air hostess would wear."
"I don't like her hat at all, it looks like a box of chocolates," joked a user.
"This is not my favourite outfit of hers, but nonetheless, she is elegant," added another.
