The Duchess of Cambridge braved the wintry weather on a charity visit to combat the issue of cyberbullying this morning.Kate, 31, who is still officially on maternity leave with four-month-old son Prince George,  was working for the second day running in her capacity as Patron of Place2Be.But the Duchess almost suffered a wardrobe malfunction as she arrived in a short pleated navy skirt and matching jacket.As she bent down to accept a posy outside the offices of Clifford Chance, her skirt blew up in a gust of wind.It's not the first time that Kate has suffered a close call with her outfit - unlike the Queen who weighs her hemlines down with lead curtain weights.Her skirt was by Orla Kiely skirt and her jacket was by MaxMara.Kate was attending the charity’s ‘Resilience and Emotional Strength in Schools Forum’ at the offices of Clifford Chance in Canary Wharf, London, which was tackling topical issues such as cyberbullying.But the Place2Be provides school-based mental health and emotional support services, supporting 75,000 children in over 200 schools across some of the most deprived areas of the UK. The charity is designed to support children aged 4-14 years old, their parents, carers and teachers with wide-ranging and often complex social issues including bullying, bereavement, domestic violence, family breakdown, neglect and trauma. It is believed that Kate's decision to  become patron on of the charity stemmed from her own experience of bullying as a schoolgirl as boarding school.Yesterday Kate joined her husband, Prince William, on a visit to the offices of Only Connect, a charity which helps ex-prisoners and those at risk of offending.She earned fashion plaudits for wearing a brown £162.50 Orla Kierley coat dress for the second time.Place2Be says it helps children to 'steer away from a downward spiral of low aspirations, truancy and exclusion from school, so that they can achieve their potential both in and outside the classroom and face brighter futures as they deserve'. The Duchess will spend the morning at the forum listening to and meeting with event speakers.Among the issues to be tackled are: cyberbullying; helping parents make strong and well-adjusted children; self-harm; special educational needs today; raising aspirations, access and achievement; and preventing addiction.Leading experts, including Professor Tanya Byron and Professor Stephen Scott, will address the forum as well as experts from across the health and education sectors.Other speakers include Simon Marshall, Head Teacher at Highfield Community Primary School, Sunderland on the subject of A Fighting Chance: Building Emotional Resilience as a Fundamental Strategy for School Improvement.
