Trend-setter Princess Charlotte has become a style icon just like her mum, Princess Kate


The young royal most recently captured the attention of the public when she donned a pair of stylish sunglasses at Wimbledon.

Looking just as chic as her style icon mum, Kate, Princess of Wales, Princess Charlotte exuded confidence as she sat courtside with her family.

While fans were wowed by the young royal’s trendy pink Victoria Beckham shades (£202), it’s not the first time the eight-year-old has sparked a frenzy of fashion purchases.

Princess Kate’s only daughter already has a significant influence on the sales of children’s clothes, with parents across the globe inspired by Charlotte’s youthful style for their own children.

Though many credit the Princess of Wales’s influence on her daughter’s regal wardrobe, many love her looks because they’re easy to replicate on a budget.

The eight-year-olds outfits are always understated and age-appropriate, often built around pastel shades of blue and white.

Charlotte’s wardrobe is filled with floral dresses from European brands, Spanish designers and smaller London boutiques.

While her fashionable mum tends to opt for long-sleeve dresses, the young Princess usually teams her short-sleeve styles with cosy cardigans.

Papouelli is the label found on many of the young royal’s pairs of shoes, specifically her collection of smart buckled pumps.

The label has gained worldwide interest since Charlotte appeared in them around the time of the Coronation, though Kate and William’s children have been wearing the brand since they were just two years old.

In addition to the smart Papouelli loafers and buckle shoes styled by Charlotte in the past, the rising fashion icon also wears plimsolls from Trotters, the cult London childrenswear shop in Chelsea. 

Keeping with her love of a nautical colour palette, the eight-year-old is often seen sporting the Breton stripes style to match her blue and white outfits.

While the simplicity of the young Princess’s outfits makes them easy to copy on a budget, select garments donned by the royal have sold out just days after she debuted them.

One dress designed by Rachel Riley was snapped up by eager shoppers in just 24 hours after Charlotte wore the nautical striped dress with a white collar to the Commonwealth Games last summer.

The £39 style was recently re-worn by the Princess on a visit to RAF Fairford when she paired it with her favourite Breton style Trotter plimsolls and a sleek white cardigan.

Charlotte’s fashion influence is only getting bigger as her style fanbase grows but the eight-year-old has been commanding attention with her outfits from the day she was born.

Thanks to her world-renowned parents, the Prince and Princess of Wales, all she had to do was be held in a GH Hurt & Son shawl on the steps of the Lindo Wing at St Mary’s to spark a rush of online shoppers to buy the garment.

The pure white style attracted around 100,000 visitors from more than 183 countries to the site, according to the Daily Mail.

Since her birth in May 2015, the future heir to the throne has racked up a cult following of her own, much like her mum Princess Kate.

Together, the royal mother and daughter duo have influenced global fashion trends and shopping habits as admired figures in the British Royal Family.
