Kate Middleton wore My Fair Lady’s Eliza Doolittle in head-to-toe white for her latest engagement in Jamaica.
The Duchess of Cambridge, 40, looked effortlessly elegant in a custom-made lace Alexander McQueen gown as she joined Prince William in the Jamaican Defense Force parade on the sixth day of their Caribbean tour.
Kate looked like My Fair Lady in an ensemble that resembled a white frilled dress worn by Cockney flower saleswoman Eliza Doolittle, played by Audrey Hepburn in the 1965 Hollywood musical when she accompanied Professor Henry Higgins to Ascot.
Today, the royal mother of three completed her ensemble with a stunning pearl bracelet that belonged to Princess Diana and a £395 Anya Hindmarch satin pearl embellished clutch.
She completed her look with a sophisticated hat with floral details and matching white high heels.

After participating in a parade of military personnel who have completed the Caribbean Military Academy officer training program, the couple will fly to the Bahamas, where they will be met by Prime Minister Philip Davis.
The couple’s trip to the region to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee sparked controversy and rekindled Republican calls for Jamaican independence.
Jamaican government insiders criticized William for not apologizing for Britain’s historic role in the slave trade, despite calling the vicious practice a “terrifying atrocity” and a “blot on our history” during a humble speech last night.
The Duke called slavery “disgusting”, saying “this should never have happened” when he addressed the issue after days of protests demanding reparations from the royal family.
William expressed “deep regret” at the forcible transportation of millions of people from Africa to the Caribbean and North America, a trade that British monarchs either supported or profited from in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Speaking during his visit to Jamaica with Kate, he echoed the words of his father, the Prince of Wales, and acknowledged the “pain” of Jamaica.
The Cambridge tour of Belize, Jamaica and the upcoming final leg in the Bahamas have sparked demonstrations and statements calling for an apology from the royal family. The future king did not apologize, just as his father Charles did not during his trip to witness how Barbados became a republic.
But he praised the Windrush generation of Caribbeans who arrived in Britain a few years after World War II to help rebuild a nation depleted by six years of conflict.
Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness apparently suggested that his country could be the next country to secede from the monarchy, telling the Cambridges it was “moving forward” and determined to “fulfill our true ambition and destiny as an independent, developed, prosperous country. .
The Independent reported that the Jamaican government had already begun the process of transitioning to a republic and an official had been appointed to oversee the work.
