Pregnant Princess Beatrice made her first public appearance in weeks as she stepped out to attend a textile exhibition in London today.
The eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Beatrice, 36, made her way to the Garrison Chapel in London's Chelsea neighbourhood, where the King's Foundation's Future Textiles exhibition is on display.
The exhibition that opened last month marks the 10th anniversary of the Future Textiles programme that was launched by King Charles to bridge the skills gap within the country's textile industry through education and training.

Since 2014, over 2,000 people have benefitted from the scheme that offers a range of upskilling courses - covering everything from sewing and knitting to producing an entire ready-to-wear collection.
Beatrice, who is expecting her second child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, looked winter ready as she arrived at the exhibition wearing a grey checked winter coat from Reformation.
She kept the rest of her look simple, picking a calf-skimming black skirt and matching sweater to complete her ensemble.
With temperatures across the UK plummeting, the young royal added a pair of thick black tights and heeled ankle boots to keep warm.
She wore her auburn hair down and kept her makeup looking fresh and dewy - with a flawless base, a hint of black eyelines, and a soft pink lip.
At the exhibition, the Education Director of the King's Foundation, Jacqueline Farrell presented Beatrice with a poppy in honour of Remembrance Sunday on November 10.
Beatrice then spent some time with students of the Future Textiles programme, including embroidery and Modern Artisan graduates at the exhibition in London on Tuesday, November 12.
She also took part in a smocking demonstration with students and examined the displays at Garrison Chapel, where the exhibition runs until the end of the week (November 15).

This is Beatrice's first public appearance in November, as she prepares for the birth of her second child.
Last month, Beatrice made a splash when she attended two parties in the capital, proving she's in no need of an early night.
She looked effortlessly glam for her first outing to celebrate the launch of Australian designer Rebecca Vallance and American socialite Nicky Hilton’s new clothing collection on October 22.
Dressed to impress in a statement black dress, her ensemble featured a trio of bows running down from the neckline to the waist, giving the classic midi frock an elegant upgrade.
The glamorous royal then swapped the glitzy bash for a dinner for cosmetics company Estée Lauder and Harrods, where she was joined by Princess Diana 's nieces, Lady Kitty Spencer, 33, and twins Lady Amelia and Lady Eliza, 32.
Beatrice was glowing as she kept her makeup fresh and natural, with the young mother wearing a pink lip and the slightest hint of blush on her night out.
The expecting royal finished her look with a pair of pointed black heels with a white floral detail, and a matching evening bag.
Prior to the event at The Orangery, located next to Kensington Palace in Kensington Gardens, Beatrice attended the launch party of Rebecca and Nicky's new Holiday capsule collection in the British capital.

The cocktail party was attended by prominent members of London high society including Lady Emily Compton, Downton Abbey star Daisy Lewis, British model Lady Mary Charteris, and Alice Naylor-Leyland.
Other notable guests included renowned stylist Martha Ward and Gordon Ramsay's daughter, internet star Holly Ramsay.
Earlier this month, Buckingham Palace announced Beatrice is expecting her second child with Mozzi, 40.
They are parents to three-year-old daughter Sienna, and Edoardo also shares Wolfie, eight, with his ex Dara Huang.
Beatrice's younger sister Eugenie, 34, congratulated her beloved 'Beabea' at the time - saying she was looking forward to 'continuing the journey of motherhood together'.
Using her affectionate nickname for her older sister, Eugenie wrote on her Instagram account: 'Congratulations Beabea...
'So looking forward to more on this journey of motherhood together. And adding another little one to the gang.'
Posting a sweet selection of family pictures, she added: 'I couldn't find a single group shot of us. So this one from Christmas 2022 will have to do. Xxxx.'
Announcing Beatrice's pregnancy last month, a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace said: 'Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring; a sibling for Wolfie, aged eight, and Sienna, aged three.
'His Majesty The King has been informed and both families are delighted with the news,' concluded the announcement.
Two new pictures from the family were shared to mark the announcement, with one showing blonde-haired Sienna from behind as she walks along a country lane, holding hands in the middle of her father and big brother Wolfie.
The youngster, with a red bow in her hair, is kitted out in bright yellow wellies and an all-in-one blue waterproof puddlesuit decorated with cloud and bird motifs.
In another picture, an overjoyed Beatrice - wearing a black puffer jacket - smiles at the camera, while being embraced by Mr Mapelli Mozzi, who is gazing at his wife.
The royal baby will be 11th in line to the throne, behind older sister Sienna and mother Beatrice. It pushes Beatrice's sister Princess Eugenie back to 12th in line.
The grandchild will be a great niece or nephew to the King, and a second cousin of Prince George, Louis and Princess Charlotte.
