The Princess of Wales is a longtime fan of Self-Portrait’s signature bouclé dresses, having worn several versions over the years.
Often seen in cream tones, these dresses are known for their intricate details – think embossed buttons, contrast piping or delicate lace trims.
The look has roots in 1950s fashion, made iconic by Coco Chanel with her timeless bouclé jackets. Kate even owns a pre-loved blue version that nods to that classic style.
Today, the looped fabric has become a hallmark of Self-Portrait and the trend shows no signs of slowing.
It’s also made its way to the high street, with brands such as H&M, Mint Velvet and Sandro offering their own polished takes.
We’ve rounded up the best bouclé buys of the season, from chic mini dresses to elegant midis – perfect for weddings, garden parties and everything in between.
