Bright arrival: The Duchess of Cambridge steps off the Air Force jet in yellow, carrying Prince George, alongside the Duke'
She's famous for her conservative sense of style but that didn't stop the Duchess of Cambridge from plumping for an unusually bright hue for her first day on Australian soil.
Paying tribute to her Australian hosts, the Duchess' sunny £900 dress mirrored the gold of the Australian flag and was created by the London-based Serbian designer, Roksanda Ilincic.
But while the dress drew appreciative gasps from the waiting crowd, it seems not everyone was a fan of the bold ensemble. 'William said I look like a banana,' Kate confided to one well-wisher, Heather Easton, as the couple arrived at Sydney's iconic Royal Opera House
Stunning: Kate admired her posy of flowers which were presented by Joscelyn Sweeney, 22, who has Down Syndrome, as she walked alongside the Duke and a squirming and grumpy looking Prince George ''of the Royal couple's Canadian tour.

During that visit, she paired her dress with shiny nude heels and repeated the trick for Sydney. The family touched down in the city for their long-awaited trip at 2.25pm, with the doors to their plane opening at 2.35pm sharp, for their 10 day tour of Australia, the second leg of their three-week tour Down Under.
Amongst the highlights of the trip are a visit to Uluru - Ayers Rock - watching life savers on Manly Bay and a visit to the world famous Taronga Zoo with George, where a Bilby Enclosure is being named after the little prince.
The wife of the second-in-line to the British throne and mother of a future king, has looked immaculate throughout the Royal tour of New Zealand.
On this showing, it seems her tour of Australia will prove just as stylish.
Not in the mood? Kate encourages her son to get in the meet and greet mood but he looks far from interested''
