Kate Middleton,
the Duchess of Cambridge, is not just a royal, public figure but also a style
and fashion icon. She has strayed from the royal normalcy of fashion by wearing
affordable designers and even wearing an outfit more than once. As if we didn’t
love the Duchess already, making her style accessible to non-royals has made her
even more likeable. People feel like they can really relate to her on a deeper
level since she has made a part of her personal life, her fashion, available to
us.
In terms of fashion, the thing that Kate is
best known for is “recycling” her wardrobe. Unlike most of her predecessors,
the Duchess actually wears an outfit more than once. For example, Kate was spotted wearing the
same light pink, Emilia Wickstead, pleated dress on two
different occasions. With different shoes and accessories, no one would even
notice that it was the same dress! (Until a side by side photo on the Internet
surfaces.)
The Duchess is also a fan of
purchasing designer clothing that doesn’t break the bank. One of my favorites
is a Somerset by Alice Temperley, black, sail boat print, dress. Kate wore this
ensemble to an 1851 Trust and Ben Ainslie Racing event in February 2015. The
nautical inspired dress comes in at about $150, which is extremely affordable
compared to designer pieces that the royals would usually dawn.
Kate is starting a fashion
revolution by showing the public that to have great fashion does not mean that
you have to have millions of dollars. Simple, classic, and affordable pieces
can be paired together to create a stunning yet budget conscious wardrobe.
