Carole Middleton's '97 Diana Style Echo
3 Jul
Summary
- Carole Middleton wore a suit similar to Princess Diana's 1997 outfit.
- The fashion resemblance was noted at Wimbledon in 2014.
- Princess Kate made a surprise visit to Wimbledon this week.
Carole Middleton, mother to the Princess of Wales, has been a long-time Wimbledon spectator. In 2014, she was seen in a baby blue tweed skirt suit, featuring a sculpted jacket and pencil skirt. This outfit bore a remarkable resemblance to one worn by Princess Diana in March 1997. Diana's Chanel Spring/Summer 1997 ensemble, also a sky blue tweed suit with mother-of-pearl buttons, was worn for Prince William's confirmation.
Both Middleton and Diana complemented their tweed suits with neutral accessories. Middleton's look included a cream snakeskin-effect bag, while Diana opted for a Gucci bag and Chanel pumps. This fashion parallel highlights a shared sense of style between Middleton and her late daughter-in-law.
In recent news, Princess Kate made an unexpected visit to Wimbledon this week. She was observed wearing a cobalt blue suit by Gabriela Hearst, opting to watch matches on Court One rather than proceeding directly to the Royal Box.
