Kate Middleton Can’t Stop Wearing Culottes — Shop 9 Lookalikes on Amazon for Under $34
Kate Middleton is a culotte queen! The Duchess of Cambridge’s typical uniform consists of feminine, floral-print midi dresses, so when she steps out wearing anything else, we notice — as is the case for her culottes.
Over the past few months, Kate has worn three different pairs of the stylish wide-leg trousers on three separate occasions — so it’s safe to say, she’s obsessed, and so are we. As the Duchess has proven (see below), the mid-calf cropped pant is versatile enough to be worn with anything from a dressy blouse and heel to a t-shirt and sneakers, making them the perfect piece to wear between seasons. With styles ranging from relaxed khaki culottes to dressy pleated culottes, the Duchess has quite a few different versions of the trendy trousers in her closet.
If you want to add a little flare to your fall wardrobe (a la Kate), scroll down to shop nine Duchess-inspired culottes from Amazon — all under $34.
