William and Catherine Visit The Child Bereavement UK



The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited the headquarters of Child Bereavement UK in the late afternoon yesterday.

"Child Bereavement UK supports families and educates professionals when a baby or child dies or is dying, or a child is facing bereavement. Their vision is for all families to have the support they need to rebuild their lives. Over 5,000 professionals are trained each year to deliver bereavement support. The work of Child Bereavement UK is vital, and children need all the support possible to get through such a devastating time in their lives, as do parents who have gone through the heartbreak of losing a child."



During their walkabout, they received flowers and two teddy bears for their child. 


"Their Royal Highnesses met staff from the charity's Bereavement Services and Training and Fundraising teams separately before they were introduced to bereaved families involved in the Child and Young People's Service, the Young People's Advisory Group and a Parents' Support Group. It was no doubt a poignant visit for the couple who are expecting their first baby in July."


The Duchess wore the beautiful Redgrave heavy wool coat from the brand called Goat. The heavy wool coat features a low collar, five button front fastening, stitching detail and two slanted open front pockets. The €650 coat is also available in black at Farfetch. She wore it for the first time and I think it was an excellent, very springlike, choice.

"Goat, the label synonymous with understated luxury began as the go-to cashmere range for the fashion cognoscenti over a decade ago. The brand has developed in to a full ready to wear collection encompassing signature knits, dresses and outerwear. Found in over fifty stockists across the UK, Goat is a truly British brand headed up by founder and designer Jane Lewis. Celebrities including Sienna Miller, Gwyneth Paltrow and Victoria Beckham are huge fans of the brand."





The dress underneath the coat was the Topshop Collar Contrast Dress. It features a Peter Pan collar and has a back zip closure. The dress is also available in some sizes at Nordstrom for €68.79. 


The look was completed with black tights, Episode 'Angel' pumps, Cornelia James Gloves, and Annoushka pearl earrings.
