Though she may well be most recognised for being the sister of the Princess of Wales, Pippa Middleton has become a style icon in her own right.
The 40-year-old, who is married to hedge fund James Matthews, has always possessed a refined and sophisticated style agenda, spearheaded by the latest trends of the moment.
In the early 2010s during her rise to the public eye, she favoured tailored blazers, skinny jeans, and well-fitted dresses (as many of us also did). Her style caught worldwide attention after she stunned in a slender-fitting Alexander McQueen dress at Kate and William’s wedding in 2011. Her evolution showcases her ability to blend classic elegance with modern trends, resulting in a sophisticated and versatile wardrobe.
Scroll on to see some of her best style moments from 2011 onwards…

Pippa’s style gained headlines after she served as maid of honour and Kate and William’s wedding. She stunned in a cowl-neck dress made by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen – the same as Kate’s wedding gown.

That same year, the sisters attended a wedding at St. Michael and All Angels church where Pippa wore a black and grey midi dress paired with a loose-fitting, satin chartreuse jacket.

Proving that her elevated, everyday style has always been on-trend, she was spotted on her way to the office in a khaki, countryside style jacket, black skinny jeans and heeled ankle boots.

A 2012 style maven. Every fashion-forward girly owned a red pair of jeans at the time, and Pippa gave them a mature feel by pairing them with a collared shirt, double-breasted blazer and black accessories.

In 2012, she wore an orange and green block-coloured dress by Paper London. A Kate Spade handbag and matching hued heels finished off her refined look.

Fast forward to 2023, Pippa’s style is even more elegant, glamorous and effortlessly chic. She wore a dress from popular British label Self-Portrait to the Heart Hero Awards, a brand also adored by her stylish sister.

She stunned in a pale yellow coat dress by royal-approved designer Claire Mischevani featuring an ultra-flattering fit-and-flare silhouette. Pippa topped the look off with a low pair of nude court shoes and a softly curved headpiece.

In our opinion, one of her best looks of all time. For the 2023 Together at Christmas concert, she wore a tweed trouser and cardigan set from Saloni that could honestly have come straight from Chanel’s A/W runway.
