The key pieces of the summer wardrobe? The royals suggest them to us

The royals, even in summer, never miss an opportunity to show off their fashion hats garments and accessories that align with the latest trends, and which invariably capture the attention of fans and enthusiasts of the genre.

Their taste in style, in fact, it is now universally known, so much so that the very rapid sold out the pieces they wear on their public outings are almost no longer surprising. Queens, princesses and duchesses have become real fashion iconsometimes with unattainable looks – due to the unaffordable prices – but many others, when the wallet allows it, more feasible.

We took a look at their latest outfitsselecting ten cult pieces of the summer, those that cannot be missing from the wardrobe of this season. From the hat to the linen dress, from the maxi dress that makes you travel (with the imagination) to the sunglasses, here are the clothes to feel a little royal (corona or not) even at high temperatures.

1. The maxi dress with Ikat print like Alessandra de Osma

Summer is the season par excellence for dresses, whatever their length. The wife of Prince Christian of Hanover offers us a maxi signed solution Philippa 1970 what does he do travel far and wide around the world (at least in my imagination). The name of the dress, Mallorcain fact, evokes the Balearics, the colors – white and light blue – recall our Mediterranean, and the Ikat print – a type of fabric that features a particular design (apparently of spiritual inspiration) obtained with a yarn dyeing technique – transports us first to the East, then to South America, lands where this motif is widespread. Ready to go?

2. Tortoiseshell sunglasses like Carole Middleton

Must have accessory for all four seasons, it is in summer that sunglasses become truly indispensable. The model Apache of the brand Zanzan chosen by Carole Middleton to shelter from the Wimbledon sun rays struck us. Maybe it’s becauseturtle effect that never sets, for its always functional square shape, or because his daughter Pippa also likes it since she also owns the exact same model (maybe it’s a mother-daughter loan).

3. The maxi bag in Mexican agave fiber like Tatiana Santo Domingo

The bag is a must, perhaps in natural fibres, like the unlined one from Tatiana Santo Domingo, spotted with a maxi bag with shoulder strap handmade in Mexican agave fiber. A proposal that comes directly from the collection of her brand Muzungu Sisters. To finally get into the holiday mood.

4. The cloud-effect pleated skirt like Letizia of Spain

Fresh, practical, but at the same time refined, the pleated midi skirt it is a real passe-partout, valid for the day as well as for the evening. What wins us over is the model, signed Boss, recently chosen by the sovereign, both for its symmetrical cut and its delicate colors, a palette of pastel shades that evoke summer skies. Romance to the stars.

5. The hat to protect yourself from the sun (in style) like Mary of Denmark

The hatanother key accessory of the summer. From the beach to the city, it is a true ally of protection. Mary of Denmark has added to the good side also the aesthetic one by choosing the model Malibu of the Australian brand – the sovereign plays at home – Canopy Bay. A hand-made unisex proposal, with a white and navy blue band in perfect summer mooddesigned for broad-spectrum protection.

6. The white linen midi dress like Ariane of Holland

Linen is the symbolic fabric of summer. Could it be missing from your wardrobe? Even more so if it is declined in white, the non-color of this season, just like the lovely midi dress, with embroidery and details see through of the brand Sandro chosen by Princess Ariane. Practically summer on your back.

7. The espadrilles like the sisters Leonor and Sofia of Spain

Espadrilles are the quintessential summer shoe and they sisters Leonor and Sofia know it well. The two not only recently wore them as the ideal complement to two total white looks, but they also opted for the same rope-toned model from the Macarena Shoes brand. Total sisterhood.

8. The maxi raffia belt like Beatrice of York

Nothing says summer like straw or raffia. If maxi bags and clutches are all the rage, belts are no exception, the perfect allies to complete any look. Just like the one signed Sézane chosen by Beatrice of York to embellish her polka dot dress.

Ok white, ok rope color, ok neutral nuances, but a nice touch of color in summer is a must. Providing inspiration is the second-born of the Spanish royal family, recently spotted wearing a mini dress bluewith a flowing cut and V-neckline, apparently a creation by Boss, a brand also loved by her mother Letizia. A fresh and bold solution.

10. The flat sandals effect bling bling like Letizia of Spain

Practicality first, especially in summer. This, however, does not mean giving up a touch of glam. The inspiration comes from the sovereign who, due to her foot problems, has recently been preferring low shoes even for official engagements. Flat yes, but with verve, like this pair of sandals from the Pedro García brand with micro pavé of Swarovski crystals. To shine from morning to night.
