Kate Middleton debuted a new, yellow, floral print dress Thursday morning and now that dress is completely sold out.
The Duchess of Cambridge appeared via video on on Britain’s “This Morning” in the long-sleeve bright colored number with tree print throughout to promote a new photography project with the National Portrait Gallery during the coronavirus outbreak. The clip was noted by Page Six. (RELATED: Here Are The Members Of Congress Self-Quarantining After Meeting Person With Coronavirus At CPAC)

The caption next to to the post shared by Kensington Palace ‘s royal account about the project read, “The Duchess and the @NationalPortraitGallery are inviting the people of the UK to submit a #HoldStill2020 photographic portrait, which you have taken during these extraordinary times. The project focuses on three core themes: Helpers and Heroes, Your New Normal, Acts of Kindness.”
The post went on to explain that, “One hundred shortlisted portraits will feature in a gallery without walls – a one of a kind digital exhibition open to all this August” and explained where people could submit their photos.
Middleton‘s dress is by British brand Raey and originally retailed for close to $600 before being marked down to under $200. The markdown followed by the duchess’ endorsement has resulted in the entire stock being wiped out.
According to the report:
The colorful midi features long sleeves, a nipped-in waist and a flowing hem, and its print is right in line with Middleton’s love of gardens and nature.
Looking on the brands social media site, we found a snap of it posted last July, which could explain the markdown, with a description that read, “Florals. #Raey acid tree-print silk dress. Shop it now at @MATCHESFASHION #MATCHESFASHION.”
