Kate Middleton Relies on These Dresses, and so Do I

We’ve long been fans of Self-Portrait dresses here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing UK. Not only are they beautifully crafted, game-changing wardrobe pieces that take all the stress out of wedding-guest dressing, but they also come with a semi-affordable price tag. This means we can shop those feel-good frocks with a smidgen less guilt than if we'd have we were constantly investing in bank-breaking designer frocks. What's the best part? You can pull Self-Portrait's beautiful, classic dresses out year after year, and they never feel dated, so they make for great investments.

This Self-Portrait dress may have been a bold choice for Kate Middleton, but honestly, we love it on her.

As it turns out, we’re not the only ones looking to the London-based label when we need incredible occasionwear. The brand has a number-one royal fan in the Duchess of Cambridge. Middleton has worn the brand a number of times and even chose to wear Self-Portrait for the biggest royal occasion of 2022: the Platinum Jubilee celebrations earlier this summer. Honestly, we're usually big fans of Middleton's wardrobe, but our favourite outfits are always fashion-forward labels that break the coat-dress mould.

The Duchess is a fan of the brand's chic fit-and-flare blazer dresses.

And since we’re currently in the throes of a summer packed with events like weddings, parties, Wimbledon and the races, we thought it was a good time to round up the very best Self-Portrait dresses from its latest collections.
