Among the personalities who have created waves in the fashion industry this century, the one who has made the greatest impact would most probably be Kate Middleton. Within hours of her appearing in public, women stampede shops to purchase exactly the same outfit and the same accessories the Duchess of Cambridge has just donned.
A classic Burberry signature trench coat, a velvet black Dulwich coat by British label Libelula, a silk sapphire dress by Issa, and a pillar box red skirt suit by Italian designer Luisa Spagnoli are among the many outfits she had worn that were sold-out, both in-store and online, within hours of her being sighted wearing them.
Countless copycats have even come up with their own more affordable versions of the outfits that Kate Middleton so elegantly wears. Clothes, shoes, hats, bags, jewellery – whatever article of clothing or accessory she wears, there are surely hundreds of women who will be inspired by her regal fashion sense.
Admit it. We all would want to look as effortlessly chic and sophisticated as the Duchess of Cambridge is. What woman wouldn’t you want to have the much coveted Royal Wedding Earrings adorning her very own ears? Two women even fought for the last pair of Hope white topaz earrings at the New York Links store just to have the earrings that Kate Middleton wore on her official engagement picture. What more to have the pair worn at the Royal Wedding?
Albeit we don’t have the vast wealth to purchase the exact same outfits she has worn or to amass the exquisite jewellery in her collection, we can still emulate her sartorial fashion style by practicing the art of looking regal and elegant at all times. A great deal of accomplishing this is by having high self-esteem and believing that you are a princess in your own right.
