    Kate Middleton headed to the high street to pick up a new maternity dress, and we've got the deets

    Kate Middleton (and her growing baby bump) headed to the high street last week to seek out some perfect pregnancy fashion and, after a trip to Topshop, it’s emerged she picked up a printed dress for her maternity wardrobe.

    After being spotted on a spontaneous trip to the London store, the Duchess of Cambridge bought a 40s style tea dress from one of the brand’s concessions, Lovestruck.

    The Deirdre dress features a mandarin collar and short sleeves as well as a gathered waist, great for skimming over a blooming belly. The print features autumnal shades with flowers throughout and will be ideal for sunnier days.
