Clear echoes of Diana

Many noted the resemblance to a 1987 Easter service outfit once worn by Princess Diana: a light-blue coatdress with white trimmings, matched with white gloves and shoes and a coordinating hat. This isn’t the first time Kate has referenced Diana through fashion; she previously evoked Diana’s polka-dot look at Royal Ascot in 2022.

Why it matters

Fashion commentators say Kate often uses clothing as a way to honor Diana’s legacy, and William has long acknowledged his mother’s role as a style icon — a thread that appears to guide some of the couple’s public choices.
