Sombre Kate attends memorial service for London Grenfell Tower fire

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge were just two members of the Royal Family to attend the Grenfell Tower memorial service on Thursday morning.

Held at St Paul’s Cathedral, the hour-long service was attended by over 1,500 people to honour the 71 victims of the Grenfell Tower fire six months ago.

The Duchess was suitably dressed in dark colours, choosing a $1600 military-style coat by Carolina Herrera, wide-brimmed floppy hat and suede navy heels. Matching gloves and a small clutch finished the sombre look.

She has been an avid supporter of the people affected by the fire, joining families on earlier this week to celebrate the work of a charity helping the Grenfell victims.
