Kate’s Jubilee Dress: First Seen on Kim Kardashian

The Duchess of Cambridge was literally radiant in red for Sunday’s Diamond Jubilee festivities in London, wearing a pleated Alexander McQueen number paired with a matching hat. But as it turns out, we’ve seen this dress before — and, surprisingly, it wasn’t on Kate.

Kim Kardashian (who had another high-fashion faceoff last week) wore a similar version of the frock last August while in New York City. The reality starlet’s creation — a bit shorter — lacked the sleeves and boatneck detail of Kate’s dress. Kate paired her McQueen with nude pumps and a red clutch, while Kardashian accessorized with a statement necklace, metallic clutch and snakeskin platforms.

Both ladies look pretty lovely, but we want to know: Whose McQueen dress do you prefer? Vote in our poll below!

I’m actually not a Kim-hater, but the short and tight look with platform heels is not a great style for her. She is so beautiful. She looks best in taylored clothes that are well-fitted without being tight. And as any busty girl will tell you, high necklines only make you look bigger.

Comparing the elegant Duchess of Cambridge to a vulgar Kardashian? Really People?

Talk about comparing a “silk purse” to a “sow’s ear”! Give me a break – you shouldn’t even put their names together in the same sentence!

It’s not even the same dress! Two totally different designs. I think they both look good in it in their own way!

Comparing a Princess to a hooker, shame on People Mag. Kim is the princess of porn.

Kate does not look miserable and she looks great. I wonder what size the people telling her to eat are? I was really small when I was younger and fat people would always tell me to eat. Funny thing was I probably ate more than them and still stayed skinny. Anyways, I always attributed it to jealousy.

Some people are so dumb! PEOPLE isnt comparing the two girls they are comparing the dresses. Kim’s dress is nicer than Kate’s. Kim looks healthier also Kate is just way too skinny!

I could get on board with Kim’s version if her shoes didn’t vamp it up so much….even if she’d just chose the shoes her sister has on in the same picture the whole outfit would be much better. Otherwise, Kate totally.

Really now you compare this sleazy tramp with Kate.
