If your wardrobe is crying out for one thing right now, it’s a classic white dress. And trust me, this is the easiest style win you’ll make all season. Fresh, flattering and ridiculously easy to style, it’s the kind of piece that does all the hard work for you – and nobody has done it quite like Princess Catherine.
The Princess of Wales, 44, has made the crisp white dress her spring/summer signature, but one standout moment still lives rent-free in my head – her 2014 Australia tour. Wearing a delicate broderie design by Zimmermann, she nailed that effortless, put-together vibe and it still feels just as relevant today.
Of course, not everyone wants to drop four figures recreating a royal wardrobe. That’s where the high street comes in, and we’ve found the perfect alternative from Phase Eight that delivers the same feel without the hefty price tag.
The design taps into everything we loved about Catherine’s version, with cropped sleeves and a pretty broderie anglaise finish that instantly elevates it. There’s also a modern update with a soft V neckline, keeping it feeling fresh rather than overly traditional.
It comes with a tie-waist belt, too, so you can switch up the silhouette depending on your mood. Wear it loose like Catherine for that effortless feel, or cinch it in to show off your shape – either way, it works. Even better, it’s available in sizes 6 to 26, making it genuinely inclusive.
This is one of those easy, pretty dresses that makes you feel instantly put together. It doesn’t need any styling stress or overthinking – and that’s exactly why the white dress remains a forever favourite.
