About this listen

 Right, let’s get straight to the headlines, because Lady Jane knows you haven’t come to hear me wax poetic about the British weather. It’s Wimbledon weekend, and guess who made a smashing entrance? None other than Kate Middleton, or as we must properly address her, Catherine, Princess of Wales. Now, let’s discuss what everyone’s chattering about—the outfit! Arriving for the women’s singles final between Iga Świątek of Poland and America’s Amanda Anisimova, Kate looked every inch the royal icon in a stunning ivory Self-Portrait dress. If you’re a Kate-watcher like me, you’ll have clocked that she’s absolutely loyal to this label, often repeating silhouettes and subtly signaling continuity and poise with her choices. She accessorized with an Anya Hindmarch tote, which, let’s face it, has probably sold out already because the “Kate effect” is perpetually in full swing.

Now, this isn’t just a fashion moment. Fans have been absolutely buzzing for Kate’s Wimbledon appearance this year, especially given the context—only last year, she missed her usual spot at Centre Court as she was undergoing chemotherapy following her very public cancer diagnosis. That absence made her radiant return in 2025 all the sweeter, and, dare I say, a little emotional for those of us who’ve followed her journey. There’s a real sense of hope whenever she’s seen in public these days, and even the harshest critics have to admit, she’s handled her health battle—and the accompanying media circus—with impressive grace and just enough sparkle.

But that’s not all, darling. Earlier in the week, Kate and her dashing husband Prince William were the picture of diplomacy at Windsor Castle, welcoming none other than French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte for a state visit. Of course, our Kate didn’t just stick to the reliable neutrals for that occasion—no, no! She stunned in Dior, in a rose-pink tulle ballerina skirt with a cinched blazer. And, mark my words, she debuted a hair transformation that nobody saw coming: big, bold ringlet curls, straight out of a Jane Austen adaptation but with a high-fashion twist. It was modern nostalgia at its best, and every hairdresser in London is now fielding requests for the “Kate ringlet.”

So, as the world watches Iga and Amanda slug it out for their first Wimbledon title, the eyes of fashionistas—and maybe a few tennis fans—remain fixed on Kate. Whether presenting the trophies or turning heads with every appearance, Catherine, Princess of Wales, has once again proved herself the queen of modern royalty and enduring British style. And if you ask me, Wimbledon just wouldn’t be the same without her poised applause from the Royal Box.
