It's the moment the Wimbledon crowds have been waiting for: no, not an Andy Murray championship win or a glimpse at a shirtless Feliciano Lopez, but a Royal Box appearance from the Duchess of Cambridge.

Arriving with her husband, Prince William, to watch British hope Andy Murray play Frenchman Richard Gasquet, fans of the tournament in SW19 will be pleased to see Kate stuck to the local dress code, wearing a white Temperley London dress that wouldn't have gone a-miss on the court.
Made up of three tiers of knife pleats to just above the knee, the �795 dress (which is now �395 in the sale at cSee Boutique ) was finished off with some old friends from the "K-Middy book of accessorising": a nude clutch and L.K.Bennett pumps, with a blow-dry so glossy it's a surprise the sun reflecting off it didn't distract the players. Though shinier than a L'Or�al advert, it's a shame the 'do covered half the dress, as the unusual cut-out scalloped straps and back were lost in Kate's signature mane, distracting from what was a beautiful design.

After wearing an Alexander McQueen coat-dress and Prada pumps at the weekend, it's clear Kate is keeping her eye on the fashion ball; and the sun on centre court today should ensure the rather boring brown jacket slung over her arm won't be letting the side down.
