The Duchess of Cambridge looked effortlessly elegant this evening as she donned a new cream coat dress when attending the reception for the G7 summit.

Kate, 39, dressed in an Alexander McQueen outfit thought to have cost £3,000, appeared alongside her husband Prince William, 38, as the couple attended the event at the Eden Project, in Cornwall.

The reception was hosted by the Queen, 95, and Prince Charles, 72, for the world leaders and their spouses following the start of the summit today.

She has been through so much in her life and in the last few months especially! Strong woman. May this gathering take her away from her sadness, even if momentarily. Those are great pictures. I saw some of Jill and Kate which were wonderful too.

I don't know what "trooping the colors" means.

Thanks for sharing the photos.

I think staying busy and being out and about is good for her. As others said, it's good to see her smile.

I think Queen Elizabeth looked beautiful in her floral dress! And I love Kate's coat dress. I would wear that, as long as the color for me could be ivory or another off-white color.

@Another new name Sue Trooping the Colours (as the British spell it) is a wonderful ceremony.

If you do an internet search you will get a better explanation than this and likely some photos of it as well. It's quite a tradition.

So good to see her out with her family.

Kate is always right on target!

Great to see them out and about again. I thought the floral dress was perfect for the setting.

Thanks for posting @KingstonsMom . The Queen looks so well and happy. Love her floral dress and elegant kid gloves.

I've seen several photos of The Queen smiling since Philip passed, all when she was busy engaged with other people. It is great to see. She'll just "get on with it," whatever needs to be done.

Is William looking at his phone? I hope not!

@september I think she is smiling in the moment with her company, that's what her mind is on.

@NicksmomESQ Maybe she was hosting a reception apart from official summit meetings?

Everyone looks very nice and appears to be following protocol.

@KingstonsMom Bless her heart, it is good to see her with a smile. One never knows what turmoil is churning but she has a good front on the surface.

@RoughDraft I've noticed she wears a lot of floral in spring each year and she wears them well.
