We were starting to think it may never happen, but the Duchess of Cambridge has changed her hairstyle.

It’s a slight change, we’ll admit, but a change nonetheless.

Opening the Treasury Gallery at the Natural History Museum in London last night the Duchess showed off a new sweeping fringe, as well as her usual glossy brown curls.

The new ‘do was teamed with another recycled item of clothing, this time a jewel green silk Mulberry dress which she previously wore last November to launch the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

The hair cut was done by her long-term hairdresser, Richard Ward, whose Chelsea salon is close to the Duchess’s Kensington Palace flat.
