While the Princess of Wales strongly favors wearing British fashion brands as a diplomatic gesture, her wardrobe has never been completely confined to UK labels. On her wedding day, for instance, she famously wore a tiara by French maison Cartier, and she routinely wears brands based in Spain (Zara and Massimo Dutti), Italy (Superga and Aquazzura), and the U.S. (Ralph Lauren and Michael Kors). Today, Kate Middleton threw her fashion fans for a loop and debuted an American brand she’s never worn before: Rodarte.
Based in Los Angeles, Rodarte has been in the business since 2005. It’s led by sisters Kate and Laura Mulleavy, who have dressed nearly every A-lister under the sun, including their longtime muse Kirsten Dunst, plus Nicole Kidman, Amanda Seyfried, Natalie Portman, Elle Fanning, Tracee Ellis Ross, Zoe Saldaña, Demi Lovato, Jenna Ortega, Maude Apatow, and more. Most recently, Olivia Rodrigo wore the pink version of Middleton’s same Rodarte dress. Surprisingly, it’s taken this long to get a Rodarte dress in Middleton’s closet, but I have a feeling there will be many more pieces in the princess’s future.
