In the time since Kate Middleton made her official Buckingham Palace debut as Prince William’s bride-to-be, the Duchess of Cambridge has cemented herself as one of the world’s most stylish women.
As an ambassador of high street fashion and locally-grown British talent, the future queen consort is often likened to her late mother-in-law Princess Diana for her regal yet relatable style.
And while Kate’s habit of re-wearing affordable basics has earned her praise from the public, that isn’t to say the Duchess is lacking in glamour.
