Prince William's wife donned a dark green Alexander McQueen coat with flap pockets on the bodice, a pleats skirt, and an inset waistband. Princess Beatrice walked behind her, wearing a dark green coat. She rocked a Shrimps coat with a belt at the waist and a fur collar, Showbiz CheatSheet reported.
Aside from the Duke of Cambridge's wife and cousin, many noticed that more family members sported similar colors. Queen Camilla opted for a dark blue coat. Prince Edward and Sophie, Countess of Wessex's daughter, Lady Louise, opted for the same shade.
During Middleton's Christmas Carol concert earlier this month at Westminster Abbey, when Harry & Meghan Vol. II debuted, and many also noticed that the future queen consort, Princess Charlotte and Zara Tindall all wore burgundy. Many even took the move as a swipe to Markle.
"Was the great royal burgundy parade a cheeky swipe at Meghan?" a headline from the Daily Mail read. Another headline from the Guardian echoed the same sentiment, "The sea of burgundy at Westminster Abbey was a not-so-subtle rebuke to Meghan."
