When on March 19th, Kate Middleton, The Duchess of Cambridge, age 30, was set to deliver her first public address in Ipswich, England, where did she go to find the perfect dress for the important occasion? Her mother's closet, of course!
The Duchess' mother, Carol Middleton, 57, wore the identical dress, paired with the very same thick black belt, back in 2010. Duchess Kate styled her dress differently by omitting her mother's fascinator.
The dress, which has done double-duty for the Middleton women, was designed by Reiss. Known as "The Trina," the garment was first seen on the racks in 2008 and retailed for around $200.
Kate is a big fan of the designer; she wore the same white dress by Reiss - a style called The Nanette- in both her official engagement portrait and again on Canada Day, proving that not only timeless style but also being economical, recycling outfits and sharing clothes are indeed royal virtues!
