Okay besties, stop scrolling because Princess Kate just pulled a major “cool aunt on a vision board tour” moment and we’re absolutely LIVING. 👑✨
On Tuesday (aka Slayday), our royal fit queen Kate Middleton popped out in London to visit the V&A East Storehouse, aka the museum that said “What if storage, but make it aesthetic?” And yes, she did it all while rocking a navy blue pantsuit that whispered, “I schedule meetings, but I also gossip in the hallway.” Oh, and the black heels? Giving “boardroom Barbie who moonlights as a fashion archivist.”
So what is this storehouse thing? Imagine a museum where you can actually TOUCH the art and not get tackled by security. Revolutionary. Groundbreaking. Literally a Pinterest board for people who stan velvet drapes and 400-year-old wallpaper samples.
Kate apparently loves a good wallpaper moment. Like, while we’re over here picking peel-and-stick florals from Target, she’s ogling ancient textiles like they’re the final rose on The Bachelor: Heritage Edition. Museum director Tristram Hunt (who sounds like a man who drinks tea with pinky up) said Kate was vibing HARD with the materials. “She’s got both great passion and interest in material culture,” he said, which is posh for “she’s obsessed with old fabrics and it’s kinda hot.”
Also, sidenote, the Princess recently dropped a video update about family life and her health journey—proving once again she can serve both LEWKS and vulnerability like it’s tea at Buckingham.
Long story short: Kate came. Kate slayed. Kate sniffed a centuries-old curtain and probably called it “exquisite.” 😭💅
