Her royal dryness: Kate Middleton braves the rain on a trip to Darwen, Lancashire today
Like any bride wanting to look her best, Kate Middleton appears to have shed a few pounds ahead of her big day.
Looking more slimline than ever, the future Royal was joined by Prince William on their last official engagement together before the royal wedding, braving the rain to attend the opening of a school in Darwen, Lancashire.
Getting in shape: Kate has lost weight since last year right, as last-minute nerves kick in ahead of the big day
Kate, holding her own oversized black umbrella, opted for a subtle but notable sartorial transformation.
Joining the ranks of predecessors including Diana and Jackie O, she wore a smart navy blue fitted jacket, matching skirt and high heels - a look that cements her status as style queen.
William and Kate arrived at Darwen Aldridge Community Academy on the first leg of their day-long visit to the area as hundreds of well-wishers lined outside in the heavy rain
Gone is the floaty, A-line silhouette she has come to favour and its place a streamlined shape suit.
Her hair was styled half up half down amid recent speculation that this could be the look she chooses on her wedding day.
Miss Middleton has yet to invest in the see-through umbrellas used by the Queen, which allow her to be easily seen.
William will officially open the academy where he will also launch an award scheme and later observe a sports display in the park with his fiancee
Instead Kate carried a very large black one, lifting it higher up so she could be seen by the crowds outside the Darwen Aldridge Community Academy.
The Queen's distinctive Fulton birdcage design umbrellas feature a coloured rim which the company produces in exclusive colours for her so she can match them exactly to her outfit.
Union and St George Cross flags flew outside many shops and pubs in the east Lancashire town of Darwen to greet the couple.

They are expected to be met by crowds of thousands on their second and final engagement at nearby Witton Country Park in Blackburn.
