Kate Middleton & Carole Middleton
Royal fashion recycling goes both ways. In 2010, before Prince William and Kate Middleton were even engaged, Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton, made a stylish appearance on the final day of Royal Ascot in a cobalt-blue belted dress paired with black pumps.
Within a year, Prince William and Kate engaged and tied the knot in a lavish royal wedding. To show thriftiness and practicality, Kate recycled her mother’s outfit during a visit to a hospice in Ipswich, east of England.
