It’s easy to see why Rixo has earned a place in the wardrobe of Catherine, Princess of Wales<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Known for favouring feminine silhouettes and vibrant colours, Kate has worn the brand on multiple occasions<\/a> – and with the latest collection, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see her reach for another piece soon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

To experience the range up close, I visited\u00a0Rixo’s flagship store on King’s Road – a destination in itself, complete with a cocktail bar, coffee counter, bridal suite and in-house alterations service.<\/p>\n

Naturally, I couldn’t resist trying on a few highlights from the new launch, along with\u00a0some of the brand’s most-loved classics.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The four dresses I chose feel distinctly like Kate: elegant, flattering and polished – ideal for the season ahead.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Marigold Silk Midi Dress<\/p>\n

Honestly, I’m completely taken with every detail of this silk crepe de chine dress<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The vibrant cerulean blue and playful polka dots instantly caught my eye, and slipping it on felt incredible – the cinched waist and flouncy skirt give it a real sense of glamour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The neck tie is a lovely detail, offering the flexibility to style it either at the front with a bow or at the back for a more subtle finish.<\/p>\n

With its timeless print and sophisticated fit, I can see this dress seamlessly slotting into the Princess of Wales’ wardrobe.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Amina Midi Dress<\/p>\n

I’ve heard this silhouette is a favourite of the Rixo co-founder, Orlagh McCloskey \u2013 and it certainly lives up to the hype.<\/p>\n

Expertly cut to flatter the figure, this frock features a delicate pansy print<\/a> and a lace trim that enhances its feminine charm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The three-quarter length sleeves provide just the right amount of coverage, making it as practical as it is pretty.<\/p>\n

I can easily picture Princess Kate wearing this dress to the Chelsea Flower Show, where it would suitably complement the event.<\/p>\n

Edina Cotton Maxi Dress<\/p>\n

As a lace enthusiast, this dress was an instant addition to my wish list<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Crafted from airy cotton-voile, the design is light and breathable, making it perfect for warmer weather.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The intricate embroidery adds a layer of sophistication, and it’s even more stunning up close – every detail is thoughtfully designed to elevate the piece.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Balancing structure and softness, the oversized collar makes a statement, while the adjustable ties allow for a flexible fit.<\/p>\n

It’s a dress Kate would likely style with her go-to Castaner espadrilles at a summer polo match.<\/p>\n

Lotta Midi Dress<\/p>\n

Nautical-inspired looks have long been a staple in Kate’s wardrobe, reflecting her affinity for timeless maritime style.<\/p>\n

This vintage-inspired design<\/a>, with its blouson sleeves and skimming skirt, feels like a piece she would be drawn to.<\/p>\n

The dress is cut on the bias, ensuring a flawless drape that moves beautifully with every step.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the satin tie-neck adds a luxurious touch, turning what could be a simple detail into a real showstopper.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It’s the well-balanced blend of classic and contemporary, ideal for Kate’s refined yet approachable style.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"The \"The <\/p>\n

The flagship Rixo store on King’s Road is a destination in itself, complete with a cocktail bar, coffee counter, bridal suite and in-house alterations service<\/p>\n

Rixo’s vintage-inspired prints are in a league of their own, striking the perfect balance between High Street accessibility and high-end appeal.<\/p>\n

The brand drops small, considered collections at the start of each month, featuring exclusive hand-designed prints, patterns and embroidery created in their London<\/a>\u00a0studio.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These limited-run pieces are pitched as forever wardrobe heroes \u2013 and they certainly look the part.<\/p>\n

Inclusivity is also at the heart of Rixo’s ethos, with most styles available in sizes 6 to 26 and thoughtfully cut to flatter a range of body shapes.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site.
