Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, is considered an iconic style icon by many. From her early days of wearing LK Bennett court heels to her sophisticated coat dresses and tailored trouser suits, she has consistently impressed with her fashion choices. While she often wears labels like Jenny Packham and Alexander McQueen, she has also been spotted in brands like Holland Cooper, ME+EM, and Sezane, as well as affordable jewelry from Orelia and Spells of Love.
One of Kate’s wardrobe staples is the Reiss ‘Thea’ Chelsea boots, which she paired with Mother jeans and a striped Erdem knit during a recent engagement in London. These boots, made of 100% leather, are available in classic black for £198. Another favorite of hers is the Sezane ‘Naelle’ skirt, part of a cream knitted co-ord set that she wore on a trip to Nottingham. The skirt is still available for £135, with a matching cardigan option called the ‘Sonnie.’
For those looking to recreate Kate’s style, the ME+EM merino chunky knit vest and snood offer a similar look to the Cefinn funnel neck knit she wore. Priced at £87.50, these pieces are versatile and stylish. Kate’s favorite earrings, the Orelia chain huggie hoop earrings, are an affordable option at just £18. These earrings look more expensive than they are and are a great everyday staple.
When it comes to dresses, Kate shines in pieces like the Roland Mouret asymmetric dress, which she wore to Wimbledon 2023. This dress, available at MyTheresa for £573, features frill detailing and a neat fit. Polka dots are a favorite of Kate’s, as seen in the Hobbs ‘Selena’ petite dress, priced at £94. The River Island midi shirt dress offers a look similar to the Beulah ‘Ahana’ dress worn by Kate and other celebrities, but at a more affordable price of £25.
If you’re a fan of Kate’s blazer dresses, the Karen Millen tailored blazer dress is a great option, especially now that it’s on sale for £100. This dress is perfect for a party or even a registry office wedding. For those looking to add some festive flair to their wardrobe, the Spells of Love teardrop garnet charm hoops are a popular choice at £95. The Holland Cooper Fairisle jumper, available in grey, khaki, or white, is a cozy option for winter days, priced at £179.
For a truly special occasion, consider renting the Vampire’s Wife ‘Falconetti’ dress, as Kate did for an official portrait. While the dress retails for £1595, it can be hired from HURR for a wintry wedding or event. Kate Middleton’s fashion choices continue to inspire many, and with these affordable options, you can recreate her royal look without breaking the bank.
