When you think of a white suit, it’s easy to picture 1970s John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever but as it turns out, the ensemble is making a 21st century comeback.
And Kate Middleton just proved the look is still a style must-have in 2022, especially since the weather is still so cold here in Australia.
In August the Duchess of Cambridge stepped out at the Commonwealth Games in a chic all-white ensemble, pairing an Alexander McQueen suit she’s had in her wardrobe for years with casual accessories.
A crisp white tee and neutral two-tone flats completed the look, the royal opting for minimal jewellery as she embraced subtle power dressing.
And she’s not the only one obsessed with the power of a pristine white suit.
Earlier in the year, not one but three of our favourite celebrities donned white suits with their own unique spins in April, proving this style is very much back in fashion.
On day one of the 2022 Invictus Games, Meghan Markle wowed fans when she stepped out in a white Valentino number that she paired expertly with matching heels – the same ones she wore to dance the night away at her wedding reception.
The oversized double-breasted jacket and the perfectly tailored trousers made the mum-of-two look effortlessly chic but it wasn’t long before we saw another star dressed in practically the same outfit.

The former Spice Girl turned fashion designer’s outfit was from her own range and featured an oversized blazer paired with slim fit trousers.
It’s not the first time we’ve seen Posh in a white suit but fans certainly loved the look.
“You look so fabulous in white,” one penned – and they weren’t wrong.

Whilst attending the races in Sydney in April, model Jesinta Franklin oozed glamour in a belted Fendi ensemble that she matched with a colourful clutch and had her hair slicked back in a ponytail.
“Beautiful outfit beautiful lady!” one fan commented on Instagram.
Whilst celebrities have the luxury of stylists and budgets we can only dream of, the white suit is definitely an investment that’s worth it.
Off to the races! Jesinta Franklin looked radiant in her power suit.

After all, investing in Valentino or McQueen may be reasonable for a royal, but the rest of us love nothing more than a fashion bargain.
