Kate Middleton makes a fashion statement – one impeccable look at a time.
The Princess of Wales, 43, has started to take charge of her fashion choices following the departure of her long-time stylist, Natasha Archeraid shared with The times in a new interview.
She has “very good control” over her wardrobe, according to aides, referring to her dress choices and styling details at recent state banquets.
It was Kate who decided to wear Queen Victoria’s oriental tiara when the royal family hosted the President of Germany, Frank Walter Steinmeierin December 2025, choosing to combine the iconic heritage with a lilac dress from one of her favorite designers Jenny Packham.

The mum-of-three – who shares Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis with her husband Prince William – also brought her creative touch to the look she wore in honor of the State Welcome Banquet President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump in the UK in September 2025, according to the report.
For the special occasion, Kate dazzled in a long couture silk crepe dress by a British designer Phillipa Lepley paired with a hand-embroidered gold Chantilly lace evening coat.
She completed her ensemble with earrings that belonged to the late Queen Elizabeth II, adding the Royal Family Order of King Charles III and the Royal Family Order of Elizabeth II as well as the star and sash of the Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order. She also donned Queen Mary’s stunning sweetheart-knot tiara.

“Kate listens to her advisors, but ultimately it’s up to her doctors,” the insiders added. “They guide his decisions.”
Even without the help of her longtime stylist, Kate is certainly making a name for herself as a fashionista, considering Vogue featured the royal on its 2025 Best Dressed Brits list.
The Princess of Wales has been hailed for her “Kate Effect” as an “eternal influencer” and “culture shaper” whose “quiet support can change the trajectory of a brand”.

It was later revealed that Kate had no plans to hire a replacement. “Kate has always been very involved in choosing her outfits for her royal engagement,” a source said. People. “She’s so confident that she knows exactly what suits her and what doesn’t.”
