PRINCESS FASHION: During the recent royal trip, Kate had 24 official wardrobe changes over 20 days, wore nine different pairs of shoes, and used five clutch purses…



The wardrobe cost around AUD $53,000 but that included some recycled items from her existing wardrobe, and I doubt she paid (if she paid at all?) full price for anything.

But sadly, she only wore three Australian labels – Zimmerman, Oroton and Jonathan Howard – and two New Zealand labels, the Auckland-born, London-living Emilia Wickstead, and Rebecca Taylor who is now based in the United States.



Here is a summary of her fashion choices…
