First Look at A Royal Adventure and Book Giveaway

Here's a first sneak peek at A Royal Adventure. Can you recognise the dress the Duchess is wearing in this picture? And at which official event she wore it?  

Answer: It's the Erdem floral dress that she wore to the Eden Hall reception in Singapore in 2012. 

I'll be doing a book giveaway as soon as the book is hot off the press. Stay tuned for details. You can pre order the book from Closetful of Books starting next week.

What will the Duchess Wear?

In our book A Day with the Duchess, illustrator Soefara Jafney faithfully recreated the outfits that the Duchess wore on the actual tour. 

So on the cover of the book she featured the Duchess in her Jenny Packham dress with the Orchid motif that HRH wore upon arrival in Singapore, the visit to the Orchid Garden and the arrival at Raffles Hotel.




For the tour of Gardens by the Bay, Soefara faithfully illustrated the Duchess in her broderie anglaise Alexander McQueen dress.



At Queenstown, the Duchess is accurately depicted in her Raoul dress.




And for the Duke and Duchess's last day in Singapore, she dressed Kate in same duck-egg blue Jenny Packham ensemble with 
matching jewelry.




It's needless to say that Soefara has an eye for detail. And the Duke and Duchess appeared on the steps of St Mary's with the little Princess Charlotte, Soefara sketched a quick commemorative illustration in which the Duchess is wearing her Jenny Packham shift dress.



So what outfits will be featured in A Royal Adventure? Stay tuned to find out.
