Princess Kate's Favourite Boden Knit Returns with a Spring Refresh
The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, has long been celebrated for her ability to blend high street finds with designer pieces, creating a signature style that is both accessible and elegant. Among her most cherished high street brands is Boden, which she has frequently turned to over the years for wardrobe staples.
The Iconic Pink Knit Gets a Modern Makeover
One standout piece from her collection is a pink knit top with a playful scallop neckline, which she first wore in 2021. While that original item has been sold out for some time, Boden has now launched an updated version for spring, and it promises to be even more desirable than its predecessor.
The new Eloise Frill T-Shirt in a fresh pink blossom shade has just arrived on the website and is already accumulating glowing feedback from early shoppers. Crafted from a soft cotton and cashmere blend, it features delicate scalloped edges around the neckline and sleeves, along with a beautiful spring colourway that captures the season perfectly.
Practical Design and Positive Reviews
We particularly appreciate the thoughtful design elements, such as slightly longer arm lengths that offer extra coverage for those cooler spring days. Priced at £75, it is currently available with a 15% discount using the code 6THX, reducing the cost to £63.75.
Shoppers have been quick to praise the top. One reviewer noted, "Super pretty knitted top, feels very soft. I ordered a medium size but had to swap it for a small which looks lovely just a bit fitted. Colour is pretty much true to the picture. As the colour is quite 'neutral' can wear with beige, cream, blues so think I will be wearing it a lot this spring!"
Another added, "Pretty jumper for spring, lovely heather colour, cosy and warm, goes great with jeans," while a third commented, "This top is lovely and soft not too see through. I am a size 10/12, 5ft 2 and ordered a medium. It fits perfectly finishing at the top of my hips. The arms are also a perfect fit."
Alternative Options for a Royal-Inspired Look
For those exploring other options, there are several high street alternatives that echo Princess Kate's style. For instance, the Laura Ashley Dusty Rose Scallop Cardigan is available at Next for £42. Additionally, House of Bruar offers its Ladies Merino & Cashmere Ruffle Neck Jumper in nine different colours, currently on sale for £49.95, down from £79.95.
This spring update not only revives a beloved piece from the Princess's wardrobe but also provides fashion enthusiasts with a chic and comfortable option for the season ahead.
