Remember Kate Middleton's ultra-cool The Vampire's Wife dress? Monsoon stock a bargain dupe

When the Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in a metallic dress from cult label The Vampire's Wife during her visit to Ireland in March, royal-watchers from all over collectively swooned. The green ruffled midi dress - a style that has been worn by the likes of Kate Moss, Sienna Miller and more recently Killing Eve's Jodie Comer - certainly made for a modern moment for Kate. Her choice was the brand's 'Falconetti' dress, made in beautiful emerald silk and costing £1,595. Woah.

Though it's made in a softer green shade and features sequin embellishments, it certainly gives a similar silhouette to the Duchess' The Vampire's Wife pick. Tempted?

In fact, this white lace shirt dress isn't unlike the stunning Alexander McQueen dress Kate wore to Royal Ascot in 2017, and we've even found a dupe for one of the Duchess of Sussex's most popular dresses! We think the 'Savea' dress looks very similar to the Roland Mouret midi Meghan wore the night before her royal wedding - and it's currently half price…
