Kate Middleton Wears Erdem to Show Queen Elizabeth Her Garden at the Chelsea Flower Show
Earlier today, Kate Middleton was sporting a pair of fashionable culottes and sneakers, showing children around her kid-friendly garden at the Chelsea Flower Show. But to present her work to Queen Elizabeth, Kate changed into something a little more formal.
The Duchess went for a high-necked, floral Erdem dress, along with a pair of summery espadrilles. She wore her hair half-up, with a braid pulling back her hair to reveal her flower-inspired earrings.
The Queen famously loves the annual Flower Show, so it shouldn't be too hard for Kate to win the monarch over. As royal reported Rebecca English shared on Twitter, Kate gave the Queen a tour of her "back to nature"-themed garden.

The Duchess's garden design already has three loyal fans: Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Yesterday, Kensington Palace released several photos of the royal trio enjoying their mother's handiwork.
The images reveal how the kids helped put the finishing touches on the garden, by gathering moss, leaves, and twigs to help decorate the natural space. Of course, there was plenty of time for playing, too.
Both Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis are shown enjoying the rope swing. (Louis, though now fully walking, still got a little help from dad Prince William). In another photo, Charlotte and George got to kick off their shoes, and dip their toes in the stream.
Kate's children responded to the garden exactly as she'd hoped. The Duchess has long been an advocate of spending time outdoors, and believes it's especially important for kids. As she explained to the BBC, "I really hope that this woodland that we have created really inspires families, kids and communities to get outside, enjoy nature and the outdoors, and spend quality time together."
