Kate Middleton wears a pair of espadrilles in taupe suede from Monsoon. They’re the ‘Fleur’ style wedges in taupe suede.
The Princess debuted the suede espadrilles in 2016 during a visit to Mumbai, India. She’s worn them six times in public since, most recently in 2019, to officially open her ‘Back to Nature’ garden at RHS Wisley.

Where to buy the Monsoon Fleur wedges:
Sadly, the wedges are from a past season. Monsoon no longer stocks the shoe. If you’d like to snag a pair for yourself, the best place to try is eBay.

Kate Middleton and Monsoon:
Monsoon is a British high street brand, but not one Kate has ever worn publicly (at least since getting married to Prince William. I suspect she might have worn one or two pieces by the company in her younger days).
Monsoon is a company known for its beautiful fabrics, intricate prints and high impact colours. In the early days of the company, Monsoon sourced products from India, Afghanistan and East Asia. Today, the team’s talented designers still gather inspiration and ideas from around the world to create their signature “Boho” look.
