Get Princess Kate’s polka dot dress look for just £39 | Royal | News
Kate Middleton stepped out for her first public engagement since the end of her chemotherapy wearing a beautiful polka-dot dress from Whistles. While the exact dress she sported has since sold out, we’ve spotted a similar style at Debenhams so you can recreate her look. And to top it off, it’s on sale.
An autumnal must-have boasting a burgundy colourway with pretty gold polka dots, the Gold Foil Lace Trim Long Sleeve Midi Dress from Debenhams was £46 but has dropped to £39.10. It features long sleeves, a flattering drop hem skirt and an intricate trim.
Stocked in sizes XS to XL, Kate showcased that the dress style can easily be layered, pairing her Whistles number with a chocolate brown coat from Alexander McQueen. If you want to re-create her full look at a fraction of the price, this high-street alternative costs just £59.999 from New Look.
Debenhams’ shoppers have left high praise for the polka dot frock, saying it is ‘very well made’ and a ‘good fit. One person highlighted how versatile a piece it is, writing: “Super comfy and pretty dress – perfect for Christmas Day and other fun occasions. Would also be great in the summer as floaty and fun.”
Another said: “Lovely dress and fits extremely well. Lovely v-neck and not too low.” [SIC]
Echoing a similar sentiment, someone else shared: “Very nice dress, cut at the breast is perfect and not too low as other similar dresses. Nice stretch on the waist so it fits perfect. Lovely material.” [SIC]
The Debenhams dress is also available in green, navy and black. You can dress it up with heels like the model has done, or pop on some comfy trainers. Kate is often seen wearing these Superga Cotu Classic Trainers – they are currently on sale for £25.99 in an Amazon half-price deal.
The gold foil detailing on the Debenhams dress might be a little too much of a statement for some shoppers. Elsewhere, this Navy Polka Dot Print Stretch Dress is on sale for £26 at Roman.
The Yvonne Dress from Hobbs is £129 down from £179 and boasts a seasonal burgundy print, with long sleeves, a high neck and flowing midi skirt.
