Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge’s style is inherently elegant, polished, and rises to the occasion effortlessly.

Every year we pour over her prim blazers, perfectly tailored pants, and picture-perfect gowns as she attends events and her duties.

Of course, as one expects, her style in 2021 is just as successful; however, one abundant detail made her more ethereal than ever.

Like her husband, Prince William, the Duchess of Cambridge is concerned for the environment, and as any fashion expert knows, it’s important to embrace sustainability and utilise the wardrobe you have instead of overconsuming.

In line with this notion, the duchess has re-worn multiple outfits this year from her iconic lilac Alexander McQueen gown that she wore to the Earthshot Prize to her emerald Jenny Packham dress that she donned for the 2021 Royal Variety Performance in November.

But ‘considered’ isn’t the only adjective that can describe her style this year; one can also claim it to be affordable.

The royal mother-of-three appropriately donned a $30 black and white midi dress for a visit to University College London’s Centre for Longitudinal Studies from Zara, that she’d worn before.

It would be a mistake to forget the divine Jenny Packham gown she wore to the world premiere of the new James Bond film, No Time To Die, at London’s Royal Albert Hall.

The gold, glittery, and caped frock was so impactful the internet was temporarily ambushed with her stunning image.

Take a wander through Kate’s 2021 outfits for a good conscious walk down memory lane.
