Duchess of Cambridge Fashion Mystery Solved? Kate Middleton's Nude Pumps

There have been a few items from Kate Middleton's North American Tour of Fashion that have yet to be identified as far as I know. Like the Duchess' textured envelope clutch, her navy suede shoes (not to be confused with her navy Pradas or her navy Manolos--this is definitely a girl who loves navy), the ruffled blouse from Slave Lake and the boucle boxed jacket Kate wore when arriving in Charlottetown.

Of course, there are also the nude pumps that Kate wore when arriving in Charlottetown and again in L.A. Not to be confused with the Duchess' platform nude pumps from LK Bennett--this is definitely a girl who loves nude pumps. There was discussion that the shoes might be the Winona by Rupert Sanderson, but the company confirmed on Facebook that they were not.

They seemed very Jimmy Choo to me so I emailed the company and got the following response:

"We believe that Catherine Middleton is wearing the Jimmy Choo Gilbert leather pumps."


Here is the Gilbert as seen on net-a-porter:

What do you think? Kate's heel looks slightly higher but it may be the angle. Mystery solved?

EDITED:

Jimmy Choo has now reported that the show is the Lovely in Powder Pink.
Definitely seems a better match with the heel and all.


And here's something else I was wondering, why do you think Kate never wears a colored lipstick? Is it another royal rule along with the nude pantyhose?

  1. I'm not sure if they're the same. Like you, I think the pair she's wearing is a bit higher. Still, classic pumps like those are always welcome in my closet!

  3. Oh isn't she lovely! I think the pumps are definitely higher than the Jimmy Choo's. But alas, how gorgeous she always looks!

  4. Agree with every one... the ones she's wearing are higher, but forget about the pumps. I can't get over how amazing her legs look!
