Kate Middleton returns to public stage in stunning monochrome Jenny Packham dress – how to steal her style

KATE Middleton made a triumphant return to public life this week following her cancer diagnosis earlier this year.

All eyes were on the Princess of Wales and true to form, she looked fabulous in one of her favourite designers, Jenny Packham.

Wearing one of her favourite British designers, Jenny Packham, the Princess of Wales cut an impressive figure in a gorgeous monochrome dress accessorized with a wide-brimmed Phillip Treacey hat.

The structured white dress with monochrome trim detail was a chic choice, and if you’re looking to emulate the Princess of Wales’ looks ahead of Ascot we’re here to help.

Jenny Packham dresses aren’t cheap, with the similar Jenny Packham
Honeybee peplum-waist midi dress priced at £1635.

Of course, many of us would love to own a Jenny Packham dress, but with close to £2000 for a dress, it’s a little over our budget.

Never fear, there are plenty of options available on the high street where you can recreate the look for less.

With a summer full of events coming up; including Ascot, and Wimbledon to name a few, you can never go wrong with a monochrome dress, as Kate has taught out.

If one thing is for sure, if Kate’s wearing it, we want to be as well.

Without further ado, these are our top monochrome looks on the high street.
