Kate Middleton's striped top and white trousers are an understated outfit formula we'll be copying on repeat this summer

Catherine, Princess of Wales smiles at the Kings Cup Regatta at Cutty Sark, Greenwich, London on May 07, 2019.

Even if you're not sold on most of the spring/summer fashion trends that are dominating for 2026, monochrome dressing is something we can all get behind. It's back in a big way for the season and despite loving bright colours for royal occasions, in her private life the Princess of Wales is fully embracing neutral styling.

Kate and William's 15th anniversary photo was taken by Matt Porteous during the family's Easter holiday trip to Cornwall and in it we saw the mum-of-three lying on the grass in white trousers and an off-white striped top. Barefoot and relaxed, this is the future Queen totally off-duty and her outfit reflects that but still looks so chic.
