Well, this might be the fastest ever that we've seen Kate Middleton recycle one of her much-photographed dresses. To pay her respects at the D-Day 70th Anniversary commemoration and veteran event in Arromanches-les-Bains, France, the Duchess of Cambridge wore a gorgeous and very familiar coat dress. Because we just saw it!

You may remember during her magical, wonderful Australia and New Zealand tour in April, Kate debuted a custom-made cornflower blue coat dress by Alexander McQueen. Two months ago, she wore the frock with navy suede pumps and a matching clutch, but for this momentous occasion, she switched things up with a respectful black fascinator, classic pumps, and a matching clutch. Is this the shortest time she's waited before recycling a look? Hey, the dress is custom so she might as well get the most wear she can out of it. Plus, there won't be a risk of another Fashion Face-Off moment (because that's actually happened a couple times).
