Princess of Wales Named 2025’s Leading Royal Style Figure

Purposeful dressing with re-wears, British labels, and high-visibility ceremonial looks cemented her influence.

Overview

  • Daily Mail’s year-end roundup called Catherine the “undisputed fashion champion of 2025” after she topped both evening and daytime best-dressed lists.
  • At the German state banquet, she debuted Queen Victoria’s Oriental Circlet with a cornflower-blue Jenny Packham gown featuring a sequin cape.
  • During September’s state banquet for President Donald Trump at Windsor Castle, she wore a gold Phillipa Lepley couture gown paired with the Lover’s Knot Tiara.
  • Coverage highlights her evolved strategy of solid-colour visibility linked to the late Queen, frequent re-wears, and consistent support for British designers.
  • Other standouts cited include Princess Beatrice, Zara Tindall, and the Duchess of Edinburgh, with Harriet Sperling flagged as a surprise style riser in her debut year.
