The Princess of Wales has been wearing this pretty style for years
Late last week, Kate Middleton cooked Indian food and greeted onlookers in Birmingham — all in an "amazing" outfit, according to a person in the crowd. And oh, how amazing it was!
The Princess of Wales looked "stunning" as usual (Prince William's words, not ours!) in a pleated midi trench dress by Karen Millen. It featured a unique burgundy-purple color, long sleeves, a V-neck cut, and a belt that practically blended in with the pleats. She finished off the look with some pumps and gold chandelier earrings.
The $394 dress, which is available in petite, regular, and plus sizes, is completely sold out in the red and black colors, but there are just a few sizes left in beige. But if you are looking for an option in the red shade, Amazon has got your back. We found tons of similar styles, including long-sleeve and short-sleeve dresses and skirts for under $55.

Pleats and the Princess of Wales could be close friends at this point. Many of her highly fashionable outfits have featured the distinctive detail — from polka-dot pleated skirts in 2022 to vivid red ones in 2021 to her classic black dress in 2020. So it's not all unexpected that she would wear it again: Pleats just easily elevate an outfit.
This Prettygarden Midi Dress is a comparable option that's under $45. It has long sleeves, a V-neck cut, and a similar purple-reddish hue. Although Kate's dress appears to be more structured, this one looks like a more flowy and lightweight option that we could wear on even the hottest of days.

You can also achieve Kate's look with a midi skirt — and this one from Amazon has over 9,000 perfect ratings. Shoppers describe the pleated piece as "flowy and feminine" and "absolutely gorgeous." Wear it with a tucked-in white button-up for a look we'd bank on seeing in the French Riviera or keep it ultra-minimal with just a plain tank top and some comfy sandals.

And since we're right on the cusp of warm weather, you should also get some well-ventilated options for your summer wardrobe, too. This short-sleeve dress that ties at the waist is a breezy style that we'd wear to an outdoor lunch, while this one-shoulder satin dress has "wedding" written all over it. Because of the pretty picture Kate just painted, we're picking up pleated styles ASAP.
