The Royally Strict Fashion Rule Princess Kate Rarely Breaks (2 of 2)

It could be argued that these exceptions are part of what makes Princess Kate’s relationship with fashion so intriguing. Black is the most universally flattering color in fashion, but for the Princess of Wales, it remains something of a special occasion. For the most part, her approach has remained remarkably consistent. Her fashion sense centers around elegant colors and classic tailoring. The outfits she wears demonstrate the respect she has for her role. But at the same time, while it is evident that she prefers to follow royal conventions, she has demonstrated that she doesn’t feel compelled to be bound by them. In the rare instances when she has chosen to experiment, those choices have resulted in some of her most memorable looks, not because the colors are particularly unusual, but because she has made them unusual for her.
