The Rise of Princess Kate’s Suit Style: A Shift in Fashion for the Royal Family

As Princess Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, becomes increasingly prominent in the British royal family, her public appearances are drawing more and more attention. However, her recent fashion choices seem to differ slightly from the elegance and romance of the past. Sarah Harris, the deputy editor-in-chief of British Vogue, previously expressed her hope that Princess Kate would wear more suits, such as high-waisted wide trousers paired with long blazers. Could it be that this suggestion reached Kate’s ears?

Recent photos of Princess Kate showcase her wearing suits exclusively. On October 3, she was seen in a striped Holland Cooper suit, and on September 27, she sported a red Zara suit. For the past ten years, Kate Middleton’s wardrobe at Windsor Castle has consisted mainly of midi skirts and knee-length dresses with bold prints, polka dots, and vibrant colors. However, now that she is the Princess of Wales, her signature look has transitioned from elegant midi skirts with belts to tailored trousers.

Since September, Princess Kate has been seen wearing almost ten sets of slim-fit suits with similar styles. Additionally, she has not been photographed in a dress since the Wimbledon final in July. During a recent visit to a community center in Bracknell, she opted for a plain white shirt, tailored gray trousers, and a slate gray vest from Cefinn, Samantha Cameron’s formal wear brand.

Kate’s suit choices include flared trouser silhouettes from designers like Roland Mouret and Burberry. It seems that the future queen consort has embraced a practical and down-to-earth fashion approach, focusing on well-tailored suits that can be paired with shirts or plain white T-shirts. Kate often opts for high-waisted trousers, whether they are shorts or long pants. She completes her look with pointed leather shoes, usually suede, matching the color of her suit. Her choice of tailoring style mostly features cropped slim-fitting trousers or wide-leg trousers in a variety of colors and prints.

Sarah Harris, the Deputy British Vogue Editor-in-Chief, wrote about the challenges of dressing up for the royal family: “Imagine being Princess Kate, where even with all the assistance and advice around you, getting dressed becomes quite a difficult task. Firstly, you have to forget about slits or unruly collars that require constant attention. Secondly, you will never be able to please everyone. As the future king’s wife and a mother, the whole world constantly watches and scrutinizes your every move.”

By assembling a series of refined suits, Kate responds to this scrutiny while also conveying her strong work ethic. Wearing different versions of the same outfit allows the focus to be directed towards her high-profile career, rather than constantly revisiting her wardrobe choices.

The suit trend isn’t unique to Kate; it has also made its mark in the fashion world. The Spring/Summer 2024 series features a strong woman style known as “CorpCore.” This trend explores sophisticated business attire beyond the typical pinstripes and gray and navy colors. The look includes tied-up hair, a neat square paper bag, and a textured leather bag.

Notably, brands like Bottega Veneta have introduced high shoulder line power suits, along with striped shirts and rolled newspapers tucked into XL intrecciato woven shopping bags. The workwear trend also extends to accessories, with Miu Miu’s nerdy glasses and oversized handbags designed to accommodate laptops and new shoes.

This emerging “CorpCore” trend is likely to inspire Princess Kate and the entire fashion industry.

The suit is an excellent choice for the modern woman: it is sophisticated, aesthetically timeless, and practical at the same time.

Princess Kate, who wears a suit, doesn’t have to sew heavy objects to the hem of her skirt like the late Queen Elizabeth II did to stop it being blown away by the strong wind when she goes out They are not as easy to wrinkle as dresses, and the cut and material of suit pants make it easier to shape and maintain their appearance than other items.
