Kate Middleton’s 10 Most Expensive Royal Outfits 》

Many women would be satisfied to marry any prince. But Kate Middleton didn’t marry just any prince. She married Prince William, the future King of England.

For better or for worse, this means that Middleton often travels the world attending various functions. Some functions look fun, others look boring as hell. However, she found the best way to spice up a boring trip: wearing the poshest outfits imaginable!

Just one of Kate’s dresses often costs more than the average woman’s entire wardrobe. Eventually, we just had to ask: what are the most expensive royal outfits she has ever rocked?

Keep reading to discover the details about Kate Middleton’s most expensive royal outfits, ending with her most expensive outfit worth over $323,000!

G7 coat: $4,091

One of Kate Middleton’s more recent appearances was at the G7 reception and banquet in 2021. She was there alongside other royal figures, including Queen Elizabeth and Prince Charles. Thanks to her stunning white coat, though, Kate stood out like nobody else!

It was actually a coat dress created by Alexander McQueen, a favorite designer of this future Queen of England. It fits like a blazer, but has many great details, including a knee-length pleated skirt as well as a double-breasted crossover neckline. Of course, looking this stylish isn’t cheap. According to Express, this coat costs a cool $4,091.

Jenny Packham dress: $4,500

Jenny Packham is another one of Kate Middleton’s favorite designers. And there is a particular Packham dress that Kate has busted out on multiple occasions.

We first spotted Kate wearing this nice pink gown in 2011 at the ARK Tenth Anniversary Gala Dinner in London. She liked it enough to sport the dress again in 2016 for a Children’s Hospices charity gala. Entertainment Tonight reports that the dress costs around $4,500, so it’s good to see Kate getting her money’s worth out of it!

St. Patrick’s Day ensemble: $4,635

Remember when we said Kate Middleton loves clothing designed by Alexander McQueen? For St. Patrick’s Day 2019, she wore a McQueen dark green fitted coat along with a plain black Gianvito Ross.

At the time, the press commented on how it gave Kate an imposing military look. And the outfit was worthy of a military budget. According to the Daily Mail, the McQueen coat was worth $3,976 and the Gianvito Ross was worth $659. While most who celebrate St. Patrick’s Day go quite casual, Kate ponied up $4,635 to look this good.

Wimbledon ensemble: $4,700

One of the things you’ll quickly notice about Kate Middleton is her love of expensive accessories. And these accessories are often enough to make her ensembles that much more expensive.

For example, when she rolled up to the 2017 Wimbledon tennis tournament, Kate wore a Catherine Walker & Co sundress. She also rocked gold Cassandra Goad earrings. According to Quartz, the dress costs about $2,500. Paired with earrings that cost $2,200, Kate’s casual and sporty outfit came to $4,700.

Remembrance Day ensemble: $5,500

Kate decided to leave a real impression when she appeared at the 2017 Remembrance Day ceremony. The black Dolce and Gabbana coat looks stylish and is also slimming, which may have been important because Kate was pregnant at the time.

The coat was expensive enough: Vanity Fair reports that by itself, the coat was worth $2,781. She also wore a Philip Treacy hat (which can be nearly as expensive as the coat) along with Cornelia James Beatrice gloves and Oscar de la Renta earrings. Put it all together and this ensemble cost about $5,500 to put together.

Alexander McQueen gown: $10,000

Kate’s love of Alexander McQueen continues with this awesome black and green floral gown. She liked it enough to wear it at the BAFTA Awards in 2017 and again at the 2019 Portrait Gala. Eagle-eyed fans noticed that on the second occasion, Kate had added capped sleeves.

How much did the dress run before the tailoring, though? According to Harper’s Bazaar, this stylish outfit runs for $10,605. Do you think they have payment plans? Asking for a friend!

Dress for Pippa’s wedding: $14,014

Kate had to strike the perfect balance when she attended her sister Pippa Middleton’s wedding. After all, Kate wasn’t an official bridesmaid in part because she didn’t want to steal her sister’s thunder. Accordingly, the future Queen of England had to look good without upstaging the bride.

Her solution was to wear a silky pink gown from (you guessed it) Alexander McQueen. The dress itself looks quite nice, and Kate accentuated it with a Jane Taylor hat and a pair of Kiki McDonough earrings. According to Harper’s Bazaar, the whole outfit clocks in at $14,014.

Canadian arrival ensemble: $21,915

We don’t like to fly, and when we do, we dress very casually. Kate Middleton apparently never got that particular memo. So when she and William flew to Canada in 2016, she decided to dress to impress!

The center of her ensemble was a beautiful blue Jenny Packham dress. The matching hat was made by Sylvia Fletcher for Lock and Company. She topped the look off with a maple leaf brooch, G. Collins & Sons earrings, an LK Bennett clutch, and Gianvito Rossi pumps. According to E! News, the whole outfit together comes to $21,915.

Chanel tweed dress: $22,992

Kate Middleton is living proof that fashion and politics are often one and the same. After all, when she visited Paris in 2017, she won the people over by wearing a tweed dress made of pieces crafted by legendary French designer Coco Chanel.

According to Showbiz CheatSheet, the dress costs $10,891 by itself. When you account for the burgundy handbag, Cartier necklace, and Ballon Bleu de Cartier 18-carat gold watch, Kate’s entire ensemble comes to $22,992!

The wedding dress: $323,732

You saw this one coming, right? Considering how much Kate was willing to spend to impress people at a Canadian airport, it’s no surprise that she went all out for her own wedding dress.

To get the look just right, Kate hired Sarah Burton, the creative director of Alexander McQueen. Together, they developed a dress straight out of a fairytale (only fitting for someone marrying a prince). Those lace sleeves, long skirt, and nine-foot-long train made an impression on Kate’s wallet as much as it did the public. According to The Sun, the dress cost a staggering $323,732. Not only is this Kate Middleton’s most expensive outfit, but it’s one of the most expensive dresses in history.
