The Princess of Wales cut an extremely trendy figure as she visited the new V&A East Storehouse in London the other day - however one element of her outfit appeared to break the gown code.

Kate, 43, marched for her first engagement of the month - and her very first since returning from the half-term break - in a trendy trouser match by designer Alexander McQueen for the occasion, in addition to a white scoop-neck top.

For her devices, the princess decided for an elegant belt, Laura Lombardi chain necklace, and a pair of streamlined black heels from Prada.

But while Kate looked incredibly classy, technically speaking, she did break an obscure style rule throughout her visit with her choice of shoes.

'We advise wearing practical clothes and flat shoes,' the V&A East Storehouse's site checks out. 'The metal grid flooring is not appropriate for stilettos or kitten heels.'

However, the princess appeared entirely at ease and masterfully handled the unequal floorings, even while wearing a set of difficult heels.

When asked about Kate's choice of footwear, Tristram Hunt, the director of the V&A, told PEOPLE publication: 'She is a pro! She handled that!'

He added: 'She had a very energy. She was extremely energetic and . We last saw her about two years earlier.

'She maintains this fantastic passion and interest in creativity and making and style. It was terrific to be able to host her.'

The mother-of-three has actually consistently made using heels look simple over the years - even while playing sports, wearing pumps on grass and participating in horse racing events such as Royal Ascot.

In 2012, Kate even wore heels to play a game of hockey and, more recently in 2022, kicked a football in heels during an engagement with her husband Prince William.

She even wore her beloved shoe in her first photos with Prince Louis in 2018 as she stepped outside the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital.

Depsite misgivings, the princess was such a 'pro' in her heels that she had the ability to manage any obstacles with ease
