Catherine, Princess of Wales, is recognized worldwide for her elegant and stylish fashion choices.
From repeating stylish outfits to endorsing British brands, the future Queen is known for generating the ‘Kate effect’, which her supporters follow, benefiting local designers and small businesses.
Speaking about her journey as a fashion icon in the royal family, Katie Nicholl said OK! Magazine“Kate is a style icon, although I don’t think she’s ever seen herself that way.”
“We’ve all heard of the ‘Kate effect’ and, of course, everything she wears and shows off is widely imitated. Over the years, she’s learned to love fashion and realized it’s not something frivolous. As a royal, it’s hugely important, and she’s really stepped up to the plate in fashion,” the royal commentator noted.
Katie believes that as time goes on, the loving mother of George, Charlotte and Louis is becoming more “comfortable” with herself.
In recent times, Catherine has been noted to have shown great interest in the British fashion industry, especially the textile sector, which was visible in her commitments made in 2025.
Katie also shed light on the Princess of Wales’ former stylist Natasha Archer, who has been an important part of her team for a long time.
Natasha has been “responsible for some of Kate’s most iconic looks, and it will be interesting to see who Kate chooses to help her move forward,” the royal expert wondered.
