Anna Wintour Just Met Kate Middleton—and Yes, They Looked Chic

We wonder who was more nervous: Anna Wintour meeting Kate Middleton or vice versa. Regardless, two of the most talked-about women in fashion just met at Buckingham Palace, and judging by the lack of photos of them together, it seemed to be their very first public meeting.

The Duchess of Cambridge and Vogue's editor in chief came together to celebrate the creation of the Commonwealth Fashion Exchange, which supports designers from all 53 Commonwealth countries, including Australia and New Zealand. For the occasion, Middleton wore a custom Erdem dress while Wintour was on the same wavelength with a printed long-sleeve midi dress that perfectly coordinated with Middleton's. The duo also met Stella McCartney and shared a laugh—we'd pay to know what they were joking about. Read on to see the photos.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
