Who's Really Behind Kate Middleton's Style?

We all remember the blue and white polka-dot dress Kate emerged from the hospital wearing while introducing the world to Prince George in 2013. But that moment may have also been another very important birth: the style partnership between Kate and Natasha. Her PA was the first person seen entering the Lindo Wing with a baby seat and, you guessed it, blue and white polka-dot dress in tow.

Royal followers started taking notice of the duchess's evolution when she made the rounds in Australia in 2014. She deplaned, planted trees, posed cliffside, and pulled off a hike without a hair (or thread) out of place — all with Natasha standing close by.

Though the palace is mum, designers are happy to spill on their royal customer. In 2016, Canadian outerwear designer Bojana Sentaler confirmed Natasha had reached out directly for the sleek Sentaler topper Kate wore while visiting the country. Bonus: Meghan Markle's a fan too!

Royals, they're just like us . . . sort of. While we love a good online shopping trip, Kate's digital wardrobe comes courtesy of Natasha's clicky fingers. The stylist has been said to comb internet favorites like ASOS (see: Kate's black and white polka-dot dress) and bring boxes and boxes of options to the palace doorsteps.

This loyal royal once favored her go-to nude L.K. Bennett court shoes, but her fashion makeover has been head-to-toe. Bolder footwear choices like the Prada sandals she completed her look with at the Natural History Museum are a sure sign that Kate is making serious fashion moves.

While we'd still classify Kate's style as anything but risque, her choices have been a bit riskier since Natasha stepped in. Deep necklines, like that on her Gosia Baczyńska dress in Poland, have been complemented by an array of slightly abridged hems that now graze (gasp!) above the knee.
