时尚街拍网She"s done designer dresses and thousand-pound jewels so far on her Royal tour of India.But today the Duchess of Cambridge has sported amore relaxed style,turningto the high street labels Topshop and Zara.
Flying the flag for the Great British High Street, theDuchess iswearing a??75pink embroidered smock dress with a tassel neck tiefrom Topshop"s latest collection on a visit to the Indianvillage Pan Bari, where the royal couple fedbaby elephants and rhinos.The dress wasavailableon Topshop"s websitethis morning, but sold out within hours of her wearing it.
She paired it with the ??8 gold Accessorize earrings she has worn several times already on the tour and her Karley black wedges by Dune London, which are available in navy for ??60.
Earlier in the day, the royal couple went on a safari in theKaziranga National Park in Assam where Kate lookedchic, but practical,in khaki skinny jeans by high street giant Zara and a white shirt with brown polka dots and a ruffled detailing along the buttons by Australian label RM Williams.The Duke and Duchess bothworelong cotton scarves given to them by local people.
Although the Duchess has previously hiked and played a number of sports, including cricket, basketball and table tennis, in her wedges, she drew theline at going on a safari in heels and wore her sand coloured Sebago Bala boat shoes which are currently on sale for a reasonable ??94.
By changing outfits up to three times a day, the Duchess of Cambridge"s style has provoked endless commentary.But there"s a purpose behind her style.Kate???s wardrobe must do a nuanced job ??? presenting the Royals as polished, but in touch, modern yet traditional.It should promote British designers while demonstrating a down to earth knack for thriftiness, while excluding anything that might possibly have been produced in a sweatshop.
Which is why today"s high street outfits are a fitting counter to the looks we"ve alreadyseen fromhigh-end designers, including Alexander McQueen, Jenny Packham, Emilia Wickstead and Temperley.
A ??75 Topshop dress that"ll work all summer long?Yes, please.
