Thrifty Kate is back!

The Duchess of Cambridge is known for wearing her prized pieces over and over again – and why wouldn’t she? They’re stunning!

This time around, she wore this beautiful canary yellow dress by designer Roksanda to Wimbledon for the women’s semi-finals match.

While there, Kate made her Snapchat debut with Serena Williams!

But if you feel like you’ve seen the bright dress before, you have.

She first wore it back in 2014 when she was Down Under for a royal visit alongside Prince William and Prince George.

Knowing her penchant for recycling clothing, we’re sure it’s not the last time we will see it.

Here are some of Kate’s favourite pieces she can’t help but put on again and again.
