Kate Middleton's Skull-Print Wimbledon Dress Is Something You Have to See to Believe

Kate Middleton definitely has her go-tos when it comes to attending events: coat dresses, solid shifts, occasionally a skirt set — this is the rotation you can expect to see the stylish royal wearing. So, when she showed up at the Wimbledon Men's Final on Sunday, we were excited enough to see her rocking a print. It wasn't until we zoomed in that we were really thrown for a loop.

Kate's short-sleeved Alexander McQueen number was no ordinary royal dress. It was decorated with images of lipstick, butterflies, and even skulls — aka a secretly daring choice for Kate, and we love her all the more for it.
