Kate Middleton wore this polka dot skater dress from Topshop during a visit to the Warner Brothers Studios in 2013.
About the Topshop skater dress:
The short-sleeved dress featured a skater-style skirt and a zip closure on the back. It previously retailed for £38 in the UK. As you’d expect, the dress quickly sold out and is no longer available to buy.
Kate Middleton wearing Topshop:
In the early days of joining the Royal Family, the Princess wore several items from the British brand Topshop. She chose a few pieces for royal engagements and overseas tours including this pink embroidered smock dress and this monochrome contrast collar dress.
Fans used to love it when Kate wore Topshop — mixing highstreet with high-end made her more relatable and created a balanced and approachable style narrative.
About Topshop:
At one time, Topshop was Britain’s most famous high-street brand. The company had shops in every major UK city and was known for selling on-trend clothing at affordable prices.
The high street fashion behemoth faced some hurdles and eventually was acquired by ASOS in February 2021. This acquisition included Topshop, Topman, Miss Selfridge, and HIIT brands, and it marked a significant shift in the retail landscape.
ASOS, primarily an online retailer, saw an opportunity to expand its brand portfolio and continue the legacy of Topshop in a new digital-centric fashion era.
