The Duchess of Cambridge showed off her short style at the King’s Cup Regatta last week and people were buzzing about Kate’s gorgeous gams. The athletic mom of three looked spectacular in navy shorts for a day at sea on the Isle of Wight with her family. And despite a valiant sailing effort the duchess did not win first prize in the charity boat race but she could’ve won a blue ribbon for ‘Loveliest Legs.’ So, in honor of the duchess and her leggy showcase–we’re revisiting some of her previous moments showing off her perfect stems.
Here are 12 of Kate Middleton’s Best Bare Leg Moments:
- Playing the Field
Kate showed off her perfect pins at polo with Prince William in May 2012.
2. Polka Dot Princess
The future Queen consort caused a flurry of flashbulbs as she showed off her sensational stems in an Alessandra Rich dress.
3. Captain Kate
In her nearly eight years serving the crown, Kate has never worn shorts! Luckily, she broke the shortless streak with her sailing ensemble at the King’s Cup this month.
4. Fitness Queen
The Duchess of Cambridge reportedly works out every day and loves to run around her Norfolk home or Kensington Gardens and also skies, swims and does pilates and yoga. All that hard work was on display at a Royal Air show in 2016 when Kate took Prince George to see the planes.
5. A Leg Up
The duchess proved she’s a formidable fashionista in this ivory gown for a night out at Thirty Club with Prince William. #legsfordays
6. Pretty in Pink
Rather than fade into the background in Archie’s christening photos, the daring duchess showed she’s got all the right moves and wowed in a silk pink dress and some seriously vamp pumps by Gianvito Rossi.
7. Oh Baby
Most mere mortal moms would slink out of the hospital in stretchy pants with a very elastic waistband –the duchess proved she’s got superhuman skills and wore a polka dot dress and wedges only hours after giving birth! The mini cornflower blue dress showed off Kate’s lengthy legs.
8. Pre-Princess
Before she was a royal, Kate was a commoner and loved a fun girls night out. In 2007 she showed off her gleaming gams in an LBD.
9. Sparkle and Shine
Long before Kate inhabited castles, she was just like a regular modern woman and loved dressing up for fun occasions and showing off her best features: those stunning legs!
10. Thigh’s the Limit
Kate looked elegant in a pale blue Jenny Packham gown where she showed off some peep toe pumps and perfectly toned calves.
11. Mom March
In February 2018, the duchess looked fit and happy in a blue Jenny Packham ensemble during her visit to the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists in London.
12. Marilyn Moment
Ready for her close up! Kate looked divine in a Self-Portrait dress as she glided down the red carpet at a film festival.
