For her appearances in the Wimbledon Royal Box this year, Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has leaned into her summer wardrobe fail-safes. 

During the men’s quarter final, the All England Tennis Club patron turned to her go-to designer Alessandra Rich in an azure polka-dotted dress and the brand’s Fab slingbacks, before rewearing a lemon Roksanda design to watch Elena Rybakina’s history-making women’s singles win.

During her final outing to SW19 for the men’s singles final, Kate Middleton once again kept it classic in another polka-dotted Alessandra Rich creation, albeit one with a Chelsea collar and puffed sleeves. This is just the latest in a string of high-profile occasions where the Duchess has turned to Diana, Princess of Wales’s signatures in a kitschy print and ’80s-style silhouette worthy of the late royal in her heyday. See Kate’s outfits for the memorial service for the Duke of Edinburgh at Westminster Abbey earlier this year and her turn at Royal Ascot back in June.

Exaggerated faux-pearl buttons upped the ’80s feel of the Duchess’s dress.
