Kate Middleton has become a fashion icon as women around the world religiously monitor and try to imitate her regal yet chic style. But why settle for imitation attempts when you can actually own and wear her actual dresses?
Well, not own permanently, but you can actually rent some of her real clothes. Huffington Post reports that through a site called Girl Meets Dress, a UK-based online dress-rental company, women can now rent and wear the dresses that Middleton wore during some of her royal events.
The site is actually a competitor of Rent-The-Runway, a membership-based site that allows customers to rent clothes and accessories made by famous designers.
In an article on Hello! Magazine, Girl Meets Dress recently acquired fourteen new items from Beulah. Those who closely follow Middleton's fashion style know that Beulah is a clothing company based in London that's favored by the Duchess of Cambridge and her sister
Among those fourteen items are three of the Duchess's dresses. These include the long-sleeved red gown she wore during a 2011 fundraising gala and a powder-blue chiffon knee-length dress which she flaunted during her visit to a mosque in Malaysia.
The red gown can be rented for £79, which is roughly $130, while the other dress is priced at £59 or about $97.
The dresses featured on the site are categorized according to the type of occasion that they're perfect for, their style, and the designers who made them. Some of the prominent designers they feature include Alexander McQueen, Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu, and Herve Leger.
Customers can also browse through a section offering accessories such as hats, bags, and wallets that would go well with the dresses they choose to rent.
With the services of Girl Meets Dress and the Duchess' clothes that they offer, any woman will surely be on top of the best dressed list in any occasion.
