A royal copy Kate? Princess Sofia of Sweden imitates Kate's namesake look By HELLO! US With her long brunette hairstyle and perfect princess wardrobe, Princess Sofia of Sweden has in the past often been compared to Duchess Kate. And earlier this week Prince Carl Philip’s wife showed her twinning style with the Duchess of Cambridge by not only wearing one of the British royal’s favourite brands, LK Bennett, but also choosing a dress from the label that was a near match for one of Kate’s most statement-making looks. After Kate wore a dark greenDolce & Gabbana dress during her tour of Canada with Prince William in 2016, the Italian fashion house released a version of the frock and dubbed it the 'Middleton'. On Monday, at the graduation ceremony of Sophiahemmet University in Stockholm, Princess Sofia donned an LK Bennett tea dress that was almost identical to Dolce & Gabbana's homage to Kate, with a similar button front, mid-length sleeves, neck tie and 1940s tailoring. The main differences between the looks? Sofia’s dress was in a summer print instead of solid hue, and it also comes in at a much lower price point. The 'Middleton' by Dolce & Gabbana has a price tag of $1605, while Sofia’s LK Bennett ‘Montana’ dress comes in at $595. This twinning moment isn't the first time we've seen Sofia echo Duchess Kate's fashion choices. In her official engagement photos, Sofia wore a vibrant blue dress not unlike the Issa wrap dress that the Duchess of Cambridge wore when she announced her wedding with Prince William at St James's Palace in 2010. We've seen a few chic outfits from the Swedish princess of late – last Friday, the royal and husband Prince Carl Phillip attended niece Princess Adrienne's christening at Drottningholm Palace in Stockholm. For that occasion, which brought together all seven of King Carl XVI Gustaf's adorable grandchildren, Sofia wore a cream coloured floral dress with pussy bow necktie and fuchsia blossom print – a look we've not yet seen on Duchess Kate!<doc-sep>Princess Madeleine was appointed as a bridesmaid for her Louise Gottlieb's wedding When you subscribe we will use the information you provide to send you these newsletters.

Royal wedding season is upon us, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's ceremony was just the beginning of it. Two weeks after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex tied the knot at Windsor Castle, Sweden's royal family celebrated the nuptials of Princess Madeleine's childhood friend, Louise Gottlieb, to Gustav Thott in Södermanland. A majority of the royal clan was in attendance, including Madeleine's parents Queen Silvia and King Carl XVI Gustav (who are friends of the bride's parents), her sister Crown Princess Victoria, and brother Prince Carl Philip, People reports. Princess Sofia accompanied her suited-up husband, Carl Philip, for the ceremony, and arguably stole the show in a yellow asymmetrical gown with a leg slit. The sunny wedding look was a glamorous departure from the usual shift dresses and polished trousers she wears to her day-to-day royal engagements. Shutterstock The well-dressed royal carried a beaded clutch and opted for dangling earrings and layered bangles for jewels. She also gave herself some extra height with a pair of platform white pumps under her breezy dress. Princess Victoria, heir to the Swedish throne and Princess Sofia's sister-in-law, went for a more conservative but equally elegant look for the wedding. The mother of two dressed up in a blush pink gown by Jenny Packham (one of Kate Middleton's go-to designers) with sleeves, a sheer neckline, and delicate floral appliqués.
