| When William, Kate and George changed planes in Sydney, Kate was wearing her Max Mara Studio wrap dress and a new pair of suede heels. The identity of the heels are still unknown... 
After long deliberation on the Replikate Community (I love that!) the possible choices are narrowed down to four different shoes from four different designers, all worn by Kate before. Susan from What Kate Wore highlighted those in her post. |
As usual, I can't seem to let things go, so I decided to do a little more research in this post, and try to pinpoint 'the ones'.
It is pretty obvious that the heels Kate is wearing are made of suede in a camel/beige colour, that they have a pretty low heel, and that they have a natural/nude colored leather sole. All four different shoes that are under consideration to be 'the ones' (see pictures below) have that too, so that doesn't bring us any closer...
But, in the above close-up I highlighted some other main style features of Kate's heels that might help determine 'the ones': the curve of the back of the shoe, the curve of the heel, and sides.
Based on this, in my opinion the heels of the Emmy shoes are too curved, while the ones from Manolo Blahnik and the ones from Russell & Bromley seem to have not much of a curve at all. Besides that, the side of the shoe of the Emmy pumps are not as low as Kate's I think.

* Emmy doesn't offer a Poppy pump in a beige / camel colour on their website, but since Kate ordered custom colours in the past, she might do this again, especially for a Royal Tour. So that's why I've taken them into consideration and changed the colour in Photoshop to match the others.
Based on this my guess is that Kate is wearing the ones from Dune. (And I would very much like that, because they are by far the cheapest!) But I am pretty sure we will see Kate wear them again during the Tour so then we will have a better look!
