It’s no secret that Kate Middleton has a signature pattern that she’s opted for time and time again, and this on-sale dress from Monsoon is just the ticket for copying Kate’s go-to look
If there’s one print Kate Middleton frequently reaches for, whether it’s for her first appearance after the birth of her child or a day at Ascott, and everything in between, it’s the polka dot. Typically sporting the blue with white polka dots look, Kate is a frequent wearer of this timeless pattern, proving its chic look can seamlessly transcend seasons and trends.
And if you’re looking to steal Kate’s staple design without a royal budget, look no further than Monsoon, where you can find an elegant and versatile midi dress in Kate’s beloved blue and white polka dot print up for grabs for half its normal price, as Monsoon continues to roll out a massive sitewide sale.

Touted as the perfect dress for any special occasion, this Sicily Fit and Flair number has been coined by Grazia as the most popular style on the internet. It features a fitted, sleeveless bodice that accentuates and flatters the body, while the fit-and-flare skirt creates a timeless silhouette that looks good on everyone.
Falling at a midi to maxi length, this piece offers a classic and forever-chic style that can be endlessly styled for various occasions. Whether you’re heading to a family event, a formal occasion, or a royal day-out, the square neckline and swooshy skirt paired with the figure-hugging fit are sure to suit any dress code. Plus, it adds the handy and discrete benefit of having those oh-so-important pockets that let you carry your essentials close by without the need for a bag.
Available in sizes 8 to 24 and in a range of colourways, this dress is so popular that sizes 12 and 24 have already sold out, and the black and white option is also no longer in stock. Normally retailing for £140, this piece is now up for grabs for half of that, placing it at £70 during this Monsoon sale.
One shopper who picked up this midi left a glowing 5-star review, which reads: “My favourite dress! The fit is fabulous even in a larger size, the material is really good quality, I receive compliments every time I wear it.”
While a second adds, “Loved wearing it. Lots of compliments.”
