Kate Middleton's Floral Summer Set Is So Much Better Than a Dress

It seems like Kate Middleton packed a suitcase full of new options for the royal tour to Poland and Germany. After debuting an architectural cocktail dress by Polish designer Gosia Baczynska, the duchess joined Prince William to visit a Nazi concentration camp and later, Gdansk's shipyards. While the visit might have been somber, Kate lightened the mood in her set by Erdem. The florals come from Erdem's Spring 2017 collection, though Kate's exact outfit is no longer available.

Nevertheless, the British fashion house is one of Kate's go-tos, and clearly, bringing along these coordinates was a sensible style move — imagine the mileage she can get out of two breezy pieces rather than one. Read on to see how Kate accessorized with neutrals, including Stuart Weitzman sandals and an Etui clutch, and dazzled in simple jewels from her Cartier watch to a delicate gold pendant. Then shop a few inspired Summer separates for your own wardrobe.
