Kate Middleton<\/strong> has wowed fans with her flawless fashion choices since returning to select royal engagements now that her cancer is thankfully in remission. And while fans are clearly loving her latest looks<\/a>, they still can\u2019t get enough of her iconic outfits from the past!<\/p>\n It\u2019s no secret that the mom-of-three has refined her wardrobe since becoming the Princess of Wales, choosing even more sophisticated outfits to reflect her new role. These days, she tends to opt for elegant, modest pieces<\/a> \u2013 think longer hemlines, tailored silhouettes, and more conservative necklines \u2013 which is why seeing her in one of her racier, pre-royal looks feels so surprising now.<\/p>\n One blast from the past that has been making the rounds on social media this month is all the way back from 2011, just days before she and Prince William<\/strong> tied the knot at their royal wedding<\/a> at Westminster Abbey. That’s right, we’re talking pre-Duchess of Cambridge era Kate!<\/p>\n The brunette beauty was papped indulging in some retail therapy on the King’s Road in London, wearing a jet-black wrap dress by Issa \u2013 the same designer behind her now-iconic engagement announcement look<\/a>. Clearly a favorite designer of hers, and for good reason! She finished the look off with brown Salvatore\u00a0Ferragamo pumps, a brown Prada bowling bag that we were all obsessed with that year, and her signature bouncy brunette waves. Some things never change!<\/p>\n The dress itself is undeniably very chic, but it’s not something we would see her wear now. It featured a daringly low-cut V-neckline and a hemline that hit well above the knee to show off her seemingly endless legs, both of which would be considered off-limits for her current royal wardrobe. Despite the low neck and high hem, Kate still looked every bit the sophisticated soon-to-be bride; how did she do it?!<\/p>\nSplash News Kate Middleton Wore A Low-Cut Issa Dress Back In 2011<\/p>\n
