Kate Style by Alisande Orme

Since her royal romance propelled her into the public spotlight, the world's most famous girlfriend has blossomed from a fresh-faced student into a fashion queen. Kate Style: Chic and Classic Look is a beautifully illustrated guide to the making of a modern princess, telling Kate's fashion story in full. From that famous strut down the catwalk in a little see-through number that caught a prince's eye to the tricks she picked up as a buyer for Jigsaw, the glitzy outfits of her clubbing days, and the emergence of a chic and elegant look that has prompted comparisons with that other English rose, Princess Diana.

Whether she's dressed for the country in a stylish and sporty tweed ensemble, attending a society function in a glamorous evening gown, or keeping it casual in jeans and her favourite knee-high slouch boots, Kate always looks picture-perfect, effortlessly blending high-street fashions with elegant designer pieces. This book picks apart the seams of the princess-to-be's coveted look; detailing her favourite shops and designers, surveying the shoes, bags and, of course, hats that form an essential part of Kate's wardrobe, and revealing the secrets behind her glossy locks and flawless make-up.

Including the sapphire blue engagement outfit that caused a sensation, the legacy of that ring, speculation about the dress and all the details on what promises to be a fairytale wedding, Kate Style: Chic and Classic Look is the essential guide to a royal style icon in the making.
