Plus: 8 ways to get your wardrobe ready for spring and why Britons are flying to Turkey for cosmetic surgery
| | | By Lisa Armstrong HEAD OF FASHION | | In the thirteen years since their engagement, Kate and Wills have quietly revolutionised the way senior royals dress, honing a modern royal style strategy that makes them and their three photogenic children both charmingly traditional and highly relatable.
High/low dressing? Kate’s queen of it. Rewears – she’s good at that too. Traditionally attired, colour co-ordinated children?

Memo to all of us should we find ourselves planning a wedding or big anniversary?
In their different ways, the other royals have been taking notes from the Waleses for years. The ripple effects – of a sleek-looking firm that can scrub up well but also seem approachable and (relatively) normal – can’t be overstated at this transitional time, when the British royals need, once again, to rebrand themselves for a new era.

In the bottle it might look white, but it’s nothing like the thick Tipp-Ex effects beloved of Gen Z.
