KATE has been praised by British Vogue's editor-in-chief for "inspiring" people with her style.

The Duchess of Cambridge, 40, chatted to Edward Enninful as she attended an awards ceremony hosted by the British Fashion Council at London's Design Museum. The editor-in-chief of the fashion magazine was full of praise for Kate's elegance.

Kate looked typically stunning in a green dress teamed with a clutch bag and heels in the same shade for the event.

The mother-of-three wore her brunette hair straight around her shoulders and accessorised with a pair of gold earrings.

During the ceremony, the Duchess presented the Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design to menswear designer Saul Nash, a 29-year-old Londoner of Guyanese descent. Read more from EXPRESS.
