From Alexander McQueen to Zara, Kate Middleton's enviable closet includes a range of brands. However, there's one American label I'd love to see her wear more of: J.Crew. The brand's classic, preppy pieces seem perfectly suited to the Princess of Wales's style, as I've proved with this story.
Below, I recreated nine of Middleton's outfits using similar pieces I sourced from J.Crew. Looking for the ideal pair of white shorts for summer? How about a pretty eyelet blouse? Check and check. Scroll down to see 22 J.Crew buys that scream Middleton, including skinny jeans, blazers, dresses, and more.
