The Duchess of Cambridge has a very varied wardrobe indeed. She loves both designer and high street clothes and often stays loyal to her favourite brands.

The royal also loves British labels and one of her favourites is Needle & Thread. Prince William's wife wore the luxury brand back in 2020 for an event at Buckingham Palace. Her 'Aurora' gown sold out in record time thanks to the Kate effect, and it's easy to see why.

WATCH: Kate Middleton looks stunning in white

Made in a cherry red hue, it boasted lace, tulle, a smattering of sequins and was a total show-stopper.

So we are pretty sure Kate is going to totally love the brand's all new Pre Fall '21 KIDS collection. It's pretty epic, we think you'll agree!

It features matching mummy and me styles, with fabulous new prints and styles from the womenswear collection. Princess Charlotte is partial to a gorgeous dress or two, and we think these frocks would be right up her street. Can you imagine if Kate and Charlotte twinned? It makes us excited just thinking about it!

The children's sizes start at aged three to ten years. If you've ever tried dressing a child for a special occasion (particularly weddings), you’ll know that stylish options like these are practically non-existent. So we are loving this select.

When Kate wore the dazzling piece, she went for a full colour block theme with the gown, wearing head to toe accessories: ruby earrings by Soru, a box clutch by royal favourite Jenny Packham and crimson high-heeled shoes by Gianvito Rossi.

There was a celebrity who sported Kate's gown (in a shorter version) ahead of the royal - Holly Willougby. Back in 2019, she appeared on The One Show alongside Bradley Walsh to talk about their one-off Christmas special Take Off With Bradley and Holly, and choose a sequinned midi dress from the cult brand.
