Recently the Duchess of Cambridge celebrated her 35th birthday and in honor of Kate Middleton’s birthday, we compiled her most memorable outfits over the years. Why would we do such a thing? Kate Middleton is Queen B of the fashion world, the ultimate ‘It’ girl. Click through for all the proof that Kate is a fashion Goddess.
Kate Middleton’s Most Memorable Outfits
Chic in All Black
Evening wear done right, folks. Kate Middleton looked fabulous in this black sleeveless Preen dress coupled with a belt and black cut-out pumps. No one can ever question her sense of fashion as she knocks it out of the park time and time again.
Chic In All Black
A Family Event
Perfection personified for reals. (Sorry, she’s just my fashion guru). In attendance at a children’s party at Government House, Victoria, Kate showed up wearing a dress she hasn’t previously worn before, by a designer she had never used before. Risky but she pulled it off. See By Chloe designed the £320 cream pointelle-knit cotton blend dress, featuring a frilled neckline and cuffs together with a lace bodice. Risk worth taking, we’d say.

The Royal Couple
Ugh, this look is absolute perfection. Kate wore a bright red cap-sleeved Jenny Packham dress together with a red clutch, a jeweled bracelet, pearl earrings and Princess Diana’s famed Cambridge Lover’s Knot tiara.

Definition of Sophistication
Fashion designers such as Alexander McQueen are often snapped up by Kate Middleton, and we totally get why. The white and red embroidered dress certainly made headlines and Kate looked breathtaking. All in all, a win on both sides of the aisle.

Navy Floral Perfection
This navy floral dress by Erdem, oxblood pumps and deep red suede clutch are stunning and we’d like the replica, yesterday. Oy, if you’re in fashion design school then it’s time to create this look but in affordable means, please.

Date Night
Back in 2014, Kate and Will attended the St. Andrews’ 600th anniversary dinner at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the Big Apple. Kate showed up wearing a teal gown designed by Jenny Packham with a fitted wrap-style bodice.

Pure White
New mom was the definition of class in this regal Alexander McQueen coat during Princess Charlotte’s christening. If you’re in fashion design school then let’s hope you’re keeping watch.

Grey for dayz
A grey Orla Kiely dress? Yeah, why not. Only someone like Kate Middleton could pull off such a look with class.
Grey For Dayz
Blue Man Group
The world’s greatest fashionista donned a blue belted coatdress by Eponine, suede navy heels and a suede clutch with gorgeous pendant earrings. Fashion design school here I come.

Color Mix Up
While in attendance at a Bhutanese sports demonstration, the Duchess stunned everywhere with a purple Bhutanese kira-style skirt and white embroidered cape. It’s almost enough to make me consider fashion school but only almost.
Color Mix Up
Black and White
Our girl killed it with the classic black and white mix up. The white fitted blazer was paired with black trousers by Zara – a look that most of us could afford and only hope to pull off as well.
Black And White
Pale Pink
We’ve said it before and we’ll continue to do so, Kate Middleton has a seriously brilliant sense of fashion and we are not worthy. Wearing pink satin pumps with an Alexander McQueen coat at the Commonwealth Day service, Kate is radiant.
Pale Pink
Royal Blue
At a charity gala in India, Kate killed it in the very elegant embellished royal-blue gown and wrap by designer Jenny Packham. Those in fashion merchandising schools should take note – this is how it’s done.
Royal Blue
Bond Girl
Elegant? Check. Classy? Check. Breathtaking? Check. Kate was seriously swoon worthy during the royal film performance of Spectre while wearing a powder-blue wrap gown by Jenny Packham.

Floral Definition
Patterns and prints and oh my. The $4,000 Erdem flower-print dress is enough to make one weak in the knees coupled with the fact the look was accessorized with diamond-and-sapphire earrings belonging to the Queen Mother.

Classy In White
Kate Middleton oozed class during the UK premiere of A Street Cat Named Bob by donning this long-sleeve white lace-bodice gown by Self-Portrait. Many people were quick to criticize the risqué high split on one side which exposed her thigh slightly. Give it a rest people, Kate and the fashion designers know what they’re doing. Don’t be hatin’.
Classy In White
Green with Envy
The fabulous Duchess sported a forest green Hobbs coat complete with a black leather belt at the waist, nude pumps, and a plaid scarf. Everything that signals, well, perfection. Fashion sense is strong with this one.
Green With Envy
Chic Casual
Of course Kate Middleton makes casual look sophisticated! With a light grey wrap sweater with textured sleeves, over a crewneck top and dark wash denim, Kate took it a step further. Finishing with dark brown suede cowboy boots.
Chic Casual
Just Gorgeous
The Duchess of Cambridge attended a children’s tea party at the Natural History Museum and her simple style here made us swoon. Her floaty printed dress designed by L.K.Bennett, which rings up to 375 pounds or 466 dollars, is certainly breathtaking. If you’re more of a bargain shopper, then you can find a similar look at Zara for around 45 dollars or 35 pounds.
Just Gorgeous
Regal In Red
Could we borrow this red asymmetrical-neckline dress designed by Preen? I mean, maybe in our imagination would that ever happen. ~sigh~
Regal In Red
Zara!
Zara is the place to shop people, seriously. Kate donned a bottle green short wool jacket from Smythe, with a blouse from Somerset by Temperley and jeans from Zara of course. To top off the look, she wore brown calf-length boots.
Zara
The Birthday Outfit
Here it is, folks, the birthday outfit that had everyone swooning. This trendy nude and black patterned £3,000 ($3,700) skirt and top by fashion designer Alice Temperley is breathtaking! Kate wore this stunning outfit during the Queen’s 90th birthday while in New Delhi.

Green makes a comeback
What do a green tweed skirt-suit by Hobbs, black suede pumps by Gianvito Rossi and a black clutch have in common? Nothing, unless you’re Kate Middleton and your sense of fashion is to die for.
Green Makes A Comeback
Sheer Perfection
Kate looked stunning in this embroidered pastel blue coat dress designed by the extraordinary Catherine Walker. Did we mention her hat is also just as fabulous as the rest of the outfit? Well, we have now.
Sheer Perfection
Color Coronation
Welp, this red floral dress designed by Vanessa Seward complete with a black belt, suede clutch and pointed-toe pumps is the kind of outfit that exudes class.
Color Coronation
Rockin’ It
Even the Duchess knows how to “dumb it down”. Sporting a heather grey turtleneck sweater, dark olive pants, knee-high brown suede boots with tassels and a Cub Scout kerchief – Kate looks chic as ever.
Rockin It
Royalty Times Two
Safe to assume that Princess Charlotte has inherited mom’s sense of fashion. Kate is once again wearing her favorite Hobbs Celeste coat on Christmas morning. We adore the fact that she’s been favoring this particular coat since 2012 and doesn’t care what the haters say about “recycling” clothes.
Royalty Times Two
It’s the Coat
The light blue Mulberry coat just makes the look sky rocket to brilliance. Together with a black turtleneck, a grey tweed Dolce & Gabbana skirt with button accents, a black leather clutch and black tights – Kate looks the epitome of sophistication.
