Remember when the Duchess of Cambridge, the Duchess of Cornwall, Queen Letizia and Queen Maxima attended 2019's Order of the Garter ceremony in varying tones of blush and white? The result was some mighty gorgeous pictures, and proof that royals can really make a style statement when they co-ordinate their looks.

Was it done on purpose? We'll never really know, but that doesn't stop us looking back at all the times our favourite royal ladies (and gents) have come over all matchy-matchy for their public engagements.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex often wear similar shades, while Kate and Prince William have also had some his and hers moments as a couple - and not to mention some of their colour-coordinating outfits from their family album.

It was a subtle detail, but eagle-eyed fans noticed that Prince Harry had the lining of his suit matched to wife Meghan's dress for the 2020 Commonwealth Day service.
