Wait, Is This the First Time Kate Middleton Has Worn Slacks?

Kate Middleton is no stranger to skinny jeans, but when it comes to slacks, the 36-year-old Duchess of Cambridge is definitely not as familiar as her sister-in-law Meghan Markle.

So when the mom of three stepped out today wearing high-waisted wide-legged trousers, we couldn’t help but wonder—has she ever worn them before?

Naturally we did some digging and found—drumroll, please—Middleton has worn slacks at least one other time.

On June 16, 2017, the duchess visited the 1851 Trust road show at the Docklands Sailing and Watersports Centre wearing navy sailor trousers. Rather spot-on for the occasion if you ask us.

Mystery solved.
