This dreamy white Broderie Bardot mini dress would get a big thumbs up from the Duchess of Cambridge – it features several style elements that we know she loves. Above all the Broderie detailing – remember the dress she wore on the beach in Sydney during her tour with Prince William?

She’d dig the puff sleeves and the crew neck too – and the frill hem which gives it an extra feminine touch. The great little extra is the drawcord waist tie tassel – which makes for a very flattering fit.

Kate loves a Broderie summer dress - remember this beauty?

The best thing of all though, is it’s currently in the sale, reduced from £46 to £30, (or $86 to $56 for US shoppers) so it’s an absolute summer steal! It’s currently available in sizes six to 18 (again that’s 2 to 14 if you’re in the US), but hurry if you want to get one for your summer staycation – it’s sure to sell out in the most popular sizes quick as a flash.

This would be great styled with a pair of wedges – like Kate did on the beach in Australia, or even a pair of box-fresh white sneaks or some summer sandals. It’s such a versatile dress… it would be rude not to really!
