She has done so while also re-wearing the cream Reiss engagement dress she was photographed in by Mario Testino. But this time she had rather confidently added a flash of daring red in the form of a disk-style headpiece with maple leaf detail, a nod to her host country, while finishing the outfit with a wicker fan handbag by British designer and government advisor Anya Hindmarch.
The bag sold out online in about half an hour after she appeared with it. Sticking to the theme of promoting British labels the Duchess stepped off the plane in Ottawa wearing Erdem.
Not only was this beautiful lace dress a brilliantly on-trend choice – lace has been one of the runaway fashion trends for the past few seasons – but it was also a perfectly placed gesture as designer Erdem Moralioglu was born in Montreal and is based in London. His clothes are already popular with first ladies Michelle Obama and Samantha Cameron.

This particular lace dress, taken from his resort 2012 collection is not yet on sale. This suggests that the Duchess has borrowed it directly from the designer as many celebrities do. It is reported that Middleton has packed 30 outfits for the trip. She wore three in one day on Thursday and despite making some fashion savvy choices there have been no statements released to suggest she is working with a stylist.
Middleton now has the power to sell out clothes and make fashion websites crash - as was the case with the recent Shola Reiss dress, which she wore to greet the Obamas in May during their visit to the UK – in much the same way that people closely watched Princess Diana's wardrobe choices.
