Meet The Brand That Is Fast Becoming The Royals’ Secret Style Weapon

It's always a pleasant surprise to see royals dressed head-to-toe in high street ensembles - and it actually happens more often than you think. Kate Middleton has a particular affinity with one brand: Me+Em.

At this year's Chelsea Flower Show, Kate wore a pleated pink shirt dress from the brand that she previously wore in 2021. And she's not the only one who's a fan. Carole Middleton was spotted in the very same dress at Royal Ascot.

The British brand, founded by Clare Hornby, believes in 'intelligent style for intelligent women' - and is fast becoming a secret style weapon of the royals.

Not only is it a favourite among two generations of Middletons - Carole, Kate and sister Pippa, who wore one of its dresses to last year's Platinum Party at the Palace - but it's also found a fan in Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.

It's not hard to see why the label has positioned itself as the thinking woman's go-to. Its hard-working clothes side-step trends for pieces that will stand the test of time (think tailored trousers that look crisp yet cool; blazers without the bells and whistles; and the chicest work blouses around). Well, it's certainly got the royal assent.
