Royal fashion lovers looking to give their wardrobes a Kate Middleton-style makeover can find hundreds of affordable buys in M&S’s huge New Year sale.
Shoppers can find some of their wishlist items for up to 50 per cent off, and plenty of royal-inspired styles have been heavily reduced.
Kate has long been a loyal supporter of the British high street hero, and with deals like these, it’s not hard to see why.
Outerwear steals the spotlight, with elegant coats and jackets marked down across the board.
Shoppers can snap up a Hobbs tailored coat in one of Kate’s signature purple tones or opt for a Baukjen overcoat in classic grey, another shade she reaches for time and again.
The royals have been making a strong case for tartan this season, and shoppers can embrace the trend with this striking checked shift dress or this half-price Checked Collared Coat or just £70.
Velvet has been everywhere too, thanks to Zara Tindall’s carol service look, her rich burgundy suit and Kate’s green gown at the Royal Variety Performance.
This sleek black velvet dress is the perfect LBD for any occasion, and this Kitri rich red halter dress is half price.
Those wanting something more fashion-forward can nod to Kate’s unexpected love for chartreuse by pairing velvet with a White Stuff jacket and trouser co-ord that feels modern yet wearable.
Princess Beatrice also turned heads in a Rebecca Vallance design at the 2025 Matrix Awards in New York, and shoppers can echo the look with a bow-front mini-waisted dress currently reduced by half.
Burgundy continues to reign as one of the season’s most flattering shades, worn by royals including Duchess Sophie and Princess Beatrice, and M&S has plenty of affordable options in the rich hue.
There is also no shortage of patterned midi dresses and skirts, a firm favourite of Kate, Sophie and Zara and ideal for everyday elegance.
Accessories have not been overlooked either.
Knee-high boots, classic handbags, polished pumps and sparkling earrings all feature in the sale alongside cosy knitwear.
A Gant jumper mirrors Kate’s festive style perfectly, while red knee-high boots reduced to £60.80 are a standout buy and the ideal finishing touch for any Sophie-inspired midi dress.
