Over the years, Kate Middleton has made headlines for wearing one showstopping look after another, but what some might not have noticed is how similar the Duchess of Cambridge's wardrobe is to that of Queen Elizabeth II.
Elizabeth Holmes, the author of "HRH: So Many Thoughts on Royal Style," told Insider she thinks Middleton has followed in the Queen's footsteps, while Meghan Markle has often looked to the late Princess Diana for fashion inspiration.
"I think they understand the power of clothes, the role it has in their public duties, and have remained consistent with their style," she said of the Queen and Middleton. "There's a calming sense in that consistency because you know what to expect from them. It feels as though Kate has studied the Queen's wardrobe and what she does with those brightly colored coats and hats. I think that Kate is embracing the attention around her fashion."
Holmes added that the Queen's candy-colored looks will always be a part of her legacy, while Middleton has grown much bolder in her fashion choices both as a way to honor Her Majesty and prepare herself for the day she becomes Queen consort.
