Dressing like a duchess (opens in new tab) is generally a pretty pricey pastime. Thriftier royal watchers look out for deep discounts and almost-identical pieces to get a royal look for less and this latest Kate Middleton (opens in new tab) fashion find falls in the latter category.
The dress in question is a green Suzannah dress that Kate was first spotted (opens in new tab) wearing back in 2014. She wore the dress for George's first birthday portraits, specifically. Kate's designer dress cost £475 (about $578), making it a non-starter for most commoners. Online store Shein is selling a cute replica (opens in new tab) of the dress for £12.99 (opens in new tab) (a little under $16). Or perhaps for even less with the right Shein promo code.
The find comes courtesy of the Instagram account @regal_replikate (opens in new tab), which shared the bargain-priced find (opens in new tab) earlier this week.
"An oldie but a goodie! I loved the budding heart tea dress by Suzannah when the duchess first wore it 2014. This dress from @shein_gb is a great option for a bargain #replikate!" the fan account wrote. "It had a similar print, color and style and at only £12.99 is a great way to get the #lookforless! Available from @shein_gb, called the 'Wrap Ditsy Floral Belted Dress.'"
