Indeed, the Princess of Wales led the best-dressed guests in a brand new £750 tweed dress by Roland Mouret – both women are Royal style leaders in their contrasting ways.
The Princess Royal’s love of rewearing chimes with her parents’ and elder brother’s famously thrifty approach to style. The family’s philosophy was always to buy well-made items and wear them for years, often decades.
The late Queen Elizabeth would always re-use fabrics while Prince Philip wore his wedding shoes for 70 years. King Charles also owns coats and suits which are many years old.
By wearing the hat for Saturday’s ceremony, the Princess brings an emotional slant to the event, creating a visual reminder of when her children were very young but also when her parents and great-grandmother were still alive.
