Princess Catherine rarely puts a foot wrong when it comes to elegant workwear, and her latest appearance proved exactly why she is the master of royal dressing. During a visit to Castle Hill Academy in New Addington last week, the Princess of Wales, 44, debuted a fresh wardrobe addition: a crisp blue shirt, neatly layered beneath a structured brown blazer. 

Catherine is well-known for championing refined tailoring and demonstrated once again how a well-cut shirt can anchor a look, particularly as we transition into the lighter months of spring. While many of Catherine’s outfits feature high-end designer pieces, this particular style, priced at £95, sits firmly at the more accessible end of her closet. 

The shirt is thoughtfully designed with clean tailoring, a gently relaxed silhouette and double-button cuffs, all crafted from 100% organic cotton for a breathable, structured finish. The fabric is designed to hold its shape, wear after wear, making it a reliable piece you can return to season after season. Available in sizes 6 to 18, the style also comes in a range of colours and patterns, including a sleek striped version for those who prefer a subtle twist on a classic.

It’s little surprise the piece has garnered glowing feedback from shoppers, with customers praising its “flattering” fit and “incredible quality”.  The British label has quietly built a loyal following since launching in 2017, and the Princess has increasingly turned to the brand in recent months. 

This marks the second time she has stepped out in one of its designs recently; just before Christmas, during a visit to Northern Ireland, she layered the Jura cardigan, crafted from soft yak wool, beneath her signature Barbour jacket.
