Kate Middleton Just Wore The High Street Outfit I Can’t Wait To Copy This Spring

Another day, another outfit masterclass from Kate Middleton. Unless you've been blissfully offline, you'll know by now that the Princess of Wales has a serious knack for putting together eye-catching looks and more often that not, they come from the high street - despite looking designer. This time, though, Middleton's ensemble isn’t from her typical rotation of Zara or Mango, but from Massimo Dutti and Boden, and it’s a prime example of spring layering done right.

During a recent visit to Scotland, Middleton wore the item of the summer - a simple linen shirt. The Boden Longline Linen Shirt - a cool and classic blue staple perfect for the current climbing temperatures - was styled with a pair of Massimo Dutti brown statin trousers, which closely resemble figure-hugging skinny jeans. It’s a silhouette we know the royal has in spades, worn regularly for both on and off-duty occasions.

If the trousers look familiar, that’s because they are - Middleton previously wore them during two royal visits in 2020. While the trousers are now sold out, the Boden shirt is still available to shop online, making it an ideal starting point for anyone looking to master spring layering this season.

Granted, the rest of her outfit isn’t quite as attainable – her herringbone blazer is from the British equestrian brand Holland Cooper, retailing for £549, and her jewellery is worth upwards of £7k (courtesy of a bank breaking Cartier watch). But there is one saving grace: there are high street alternatives that look strikingly similar to her original pieces, which are as classically timeless as Middleton's. The best part? They won't cost a small fortune.

From Mango to Reiss, we've found some of the best options you can shop now, if, like the royal herself, dressing well is top of mind this spring.
