The Princess of Wales returned to Royal Ascot on Wednesday. It was her first appearance at the prestigious horse-racing event in three years. Kate joined Prince William in the day-two carriage procession, turning heads in a sunshine-yellow Roksanda dress that Vogue noted is a longtime favorite of hers. Harper's Bazaar called the look positively radiant.
The outing carries extra weight after her recent health journey. Kate missed last year's Ascot in a last-minute absence, Hello! reports -- making this a triumphant comeback to one of the royal calendar's glossiest fixtures. The sunny color doubled down on a summer palette she has favored. And the joint appearance with William signaled a steady return to public life.
