Princess Elisabeth of Belgium, the Duchess of Brabant, is known for her style agenda that is elegant and sophisticated yet completely fashion-forward.

As the heir to the Belgian throne, the 22-year-old's style combines the latest trends with timeless, classic elements appropriate for her royal status.

While she generally favours classic and understated outfits with neutral 'quiet luxury'-esque colour palettes as her go-to, she Elisabeth occasionally experiments and makes bolder choices, particularly for significant events. She also opts for a wide range of labels from Dior to Dries Van Noten.
