- description: Andy Murray may have been the star attraction on court today, but Kate once again stole the show. Looking stunning the Duchess of Cambridge waved to fans as she arrived at Wimbledon with her sister Pippa minutes ahead of the final. The siblings have a prime vantage point in the front row of the Royal Box in the midst of the rest of the nervous centre court crowd - all hoping for a historic Murray win over six-times champion Federer. Unfortunately for Kate and Pippa, the Briton fell to a defeat in four sets against the new world number-one Kate made sure to dress for the occasion in her own set of WImbledon whites - all by upmarket high street store Joseph. Cementing her newly earned status as the thriftiest royal, she wore a £275 cream crepe shift dress first seen during last summer's North American tour, on a trip to Prince Edward Island. Her buttoned-up jacket, its boxy shape reminiscent of Chanel, was the £460 Joseph Nessie in cream tweed. She last wore the piece for the Epsom Derby last June, when she styled it in a similar way to today's all-cream look. Then she wore it over another high street dress - a Reiss piece that went on to sell out in minutes. Indeed, CopyKates will struggle to emulate the duchess' style today, given that the £275 sleeveless scoop-neck dress was also a 2011 piece and sold out online and in store immediately after she wore it. At her ears, Kate donned a pair of £495 gold and citrine earrings by Kiki McDonough - the same pair she wore last week to watch William installed into the Order of the Thistle. Kate's leopard-print clutch bag is a Diane von Furstenberg piece, another item recycled from her North American tour wardrobe of last July. The snakeskin bag, which originally sold for £290, is currently on sale at net-a-porter for £145. Pippa Middleton wore a bluebird print peplum dress by Project D, the label designed by Dannii Minogue and Tabitha Somerset Webb. The £350 Phoebe dress, from the spring/summer 2012 collection, has already sold out online. The pair joined a roll call of illustrious guests in the Royal box Kate has already seen Murray in action this week, showing the whole range of emotions as she watched his win against Spain's David Ferrer from the Royal Box with Prince William. The whole Middleton family have been regulars at Wimbledon with her parents Carole and Michael Middleton in the Centre Court crowd on Tuesday. Pippa and James also enjoyed seats in the Royal Box when they put in an appearance at SW19 the following day. Kate and Pippa politely applauded Federer on his seventh Wimbledon victory and put on a brave face despite the nation's disappointment. The sisters were then escorted out of Centre Court before Kate took the wheel of a Range Rover as the two made an exit - flanked by security cars.
