Even Kate Can't Resist the One Dress That Has Invaded the High Street This Year
This morning the Duchess of Cambridge visited the Evelina Chilrden’s Hospital, as she became a patron with the Duke of Cambridge. For her visit, Kate wore the dress trend that has swept the high street this year — a polka dot dress. Her green sleeved spotty midi has pretty pearl button details on the bodice and a bow tie at the neck is by her go-to high street brand LK Bennett. At the time of typing the £325 dress is still in stock, but there are also lots of other amazing spotty dresses on the high street. In particular, we love the similar style dress at & Other Stories in black which is £69. Keep scrolling to see Kate's dress, and shop our favourite similar versions.
