The Duchess of Cambridge Has a New Shoe Obsession

Last night, the Duchess of Cambridge hosted a fashion event at Buckingham Palace, attended by the likes of Stella McCartney and Anna Wintour. For the first few years of her royal duties, the Duchess was rarely seen without a pair of L.K. Bennett shoes, but yesterday's outfit confirmed that she has a new go-to brand for her footwear. Kate wore a pair of black Prada pointed-toe pump shoes, a new addition to her rapidly expanding Prada collection. Kate has also worn a pair of black stilettos with scalloped straps at the ankle, across the foot and over the toes. Our editors have always believed that Prada creates the most comfortable high heels, so we applaud her for such a wise choice. Keep scrolling to see—and shop—the Duchess's new favourite shoes.
