But as we know, the Duchess likes to switch things up, too, as demonstrated by some of her boldest fashion moments. And that's probably why the royal has also stepped out in strappy Jimmy Choo stilettos that are worthy of Hollywood’s most glam red carpets. For example, for an appearance at the National Portrait Gallery, when she wore gold metallic sandals by the brand.
