Boden has been one of my personal favorite British brands for more than a decade, and Princess Kate would certainly co-sign that statement. She’s worn Boden’s sweaters, dresses, loafers and more for everything from Zoom meetings to her official Christmas card photos, and she’s also dressed her three kids in Boden pieces.
Princess Charlotte, in particular, has worn the brand for some big moments, like the blue and white zigzag sweater she showed off in her 8th birthday portrait. She also chose Boden while playing the piano with mom Kate at the 2025 Together at Christmas Concert, wearing one the British staple's tartan mini skirts.

Prince George and Prince Louis have also got in on the Boden action lately, with George wearing the high street retailer's red half-zip sweater for a visit to homelessness charity The Passage and Louis representing Boden in his 8th birthday photo.
The brand's trademark prints are colorful and slightly quirky, but for me, Boden is one of the places I look first for quality basics like long-sleeved Breton stripe tees, classic trousers and comfy jersey dresses.
Now that August is in full swing, many of Boden's spring and summer styles are marked up to 60 percent off, making its summer sale the ideal way to stock up on those transitional pieces for fall like linen blazers, dresses to layer under sweaters and Kate-approved loafers.
The Princess of Wales has been into wide legs recently, and these aptly named Kensington pants would look perfect with a tank and Birkenstocks now or a cozy sweater this fall.
A classic shirt dress is a Princess Kate staple, and this soft jersey style can be easily dressed down with sneakers for errands or worn with heels for a dinner out.
Couldn't you see the Princess of Wales in this short-sleeved sweater with her go-to skinny jeans?
Kate loves a Boden loafer, and this suede style is 60 percent off.
Wear this with sandals now, and a cardigan and boots in October.
Don't be surprised if you see the Princess of Wales in this easy ruffled shirt this autumn.
For the younger royal fans (or those of us who can fit in a girls XL), this preppy sweater looks very similar to one that Kate has worn.
I own this shirt in green, but it's also available in everything from pastel pink to basic white.
A leather belt with equestrian detail is very royal coded.
A princess-approved linen blazer will see you through anything this fall, but throw it on over a dress for any chilly late summer nights.
The button detail and boxy cut of this Kate-esque striped tee takes it up a notch.
When she was younger, Princess Charlotte used to be a huge fan of laceless canvas sneakers, and this grown-up version is under $40 on sale.
