The Duchess Slant
Did you know the women of the Royal Family are not allowed to sit with their legs crossed? While this is not an official role, it is one that is definitely observed. In fact, Princess Diana invented the sitting technique. The media later labeled it the “the Duchess slant.” She sat with her legs slanted side-by-side. Now all royalty including Kate are expected to sit this way and it is viewed as classy and respectful.
