The Princess of Wales, who studied art history at the University of St Andrews, continues to show a strong appreciation for the arts — a passion that was clearly reflected in her latest stylish public appearance.

Princess Catherine made headlines recently when she stepped out in an eye-catching olive green pantsuit. While many admired her elegance and polished look, some online critics questioned her outfit — especially the length of her trousers, which sparked quite a bit of debate.

On Tuesday, May 13, the princess attended an event celebrating rising talent in British fashion. Representing the British Fashion Council, she presented the eighth Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design, honoring creatives making a mark in the industry.

For the event, she made a statement in a rich green pantsuit, featuring flared trousers and a matching blazer with side pockets and resin-style buttons. The 43-year-old finished off the rare head-to-toe look with tan pointed heels and a white blouse adorned with subtle frills.

Though many praised her sleek and fashionable outfit, Catherine’s modern ensemble stirred a lot of buzz online. Some felt the look resembled Meghan Markle’s style, while others thought the loose-fitting trousers didn’t align with the royal’s typical fashion choices.

One commenter offered a fair opinion, writing, “You can respect her and still be honest…this look is the worst I’ve ever seen from her. It looks like something right out of MM closet [sic].”
