The Duchess of Cambridge is one of the most immaculate monarchs ever. Does she ever have a day off? Have you ever seen her with a hair out of place? Nope. And the same goes for The Duchess of Sussex who too never fails to look as sleek as possible. Pristine, precise and polished at all times, the pair consistently get it right in the style stakes, and quite frankly, we are in awe! One thing we have noticed, is the fact that come rain or shine, the duo never face the problem of having their skirt blowing in the wind. You know the drill; a huge gust of wind blows, and you resemble Marilyn Monroe when she stood over the subway grate in 1954 (but not as glam.)
Duchess Kate's dresses never blow up - and now we know why!
The reason the royal ladies don’t ever get caught out with this, is due to a simple trick that we bet you haven't even thought of. According to etiquette expert Myka Meier, Kate and Meghan choose undergarments with lots of static – which is quite deliberate as they ensure their skirts easily cling. Speaking to The Sun, Myka explains "Often they wear body suits and clothes that actually increase static so it's much hard for something to fly up," adding: "So you have an under garment that is almost like a body suit that is one tactic that is used."

"If you do not use weights or heavy weighted material, you make sure it will not fly up by wearing undergarments that keep the fabrics connect to your body."
According to the Daily Mail, Her Majesty the Queen uses lead curtain weights along the hem of her dresses to weigh them down. Talk about ingenious.
British fashion designer Stewart Parvin told the publication: "I just pop a couple of weights into the hemline of her dresses and coats and it makes them hang beautifully. If there is a flap in the coat then I will sew in one on each side of the split to even it up" So, now we know!
