While Princess Kate’s absence from Royal Ascot didn’t go unnoticed, all eyes were on Alizée Thevenet, who appeared to send a subtle yet touching message to her young nephew Prince Louis.
On a second day of Royal Ascot, the wife of James Middleton made a rare public outing on Thursday as she joined her mother-in-law, Carole Middleton.
Alizée wore a hat that subtly paid tribute to her nephew, Prince Louis, during the iconic British racing event, as his mother, the Princess of Wales, remained absent.
She wore a silver Juliette Millinery hat with a twisted bow adornment and an array of feathers plumbing from the top.
Alizée borrowed a headwear from Carole Middleton's wardrobe, which she wore to Prince Louis' christening in 2018.
In a sweet tribute, she wore the hat pairing with the Juliette Millinery number with a gingham Longchamp midi dress with an elasticated waist, floral embroidery, and long sleeves.
She paired her look with the 'La Baronne Sandals' and her heels featured a triple strap bow-adorned detailing and teamed nicely with her 'Le Roseau' bag in a ballerina pink hue.
