From Kate Middleton's military-inspired Alexander McQueen coat to Meghan Markle's Victoria Beckham boots: 39 of the royal family's most memorable Christmas day outfits

We love to see how the royal family celebrates Christmas . From what they eat on the 25th of December to what happens at the pre-Christmas lunch with extended family members, it's fascinating to learn how the royals spend the big day.

We're equally invested in what our favourite royals wear. Their many appearances throughout the festive period provide little glimpses into their winter wardrobes, but there is one moment that takes the crown and that's Christmas morning.

Each year, the royal family heads to the late Queen's country estate in Norfolk to attend the Christmas Day service at St Mary Magdalene Church. They usually walk from Sandringham House to the church, giving us the perfect opportunity to eye up their Christmas day outfits en route.

While we wait to see what festivities they get up to this year, there is plenty of royal Christmas Day fashion to ogle from years gone by, so scroll down to see our pick of the best outfits.
