The Duchess of Cambridge has once again shown off her sustainable fashion credentials by re-wearing the blouse from her engagement photo shoot.
Kate Middleton looked elegant in the Whistles blouse as she cuddled up to her then fiancé Prince William in photographs taken by celebrity photographer Mario Testino at St James s Palace, London, in November 2010.
The £125 Kate blouse was first released by the British high street chain in 2008 and Miss Middleton was praised at the time for choosing such a sensible look for her engagement photographs.
Proving she is more than happy to re-wear classic pieces, Kate, 39, recently brought the blouse back out of her wardrobe to phone finalists of her Hold Still photography competition.

When bride Kate Middleton stepped out of her Rolls Royce at Westminster Abbey just before 11 a.m. on April 29, 2011, it was the end of one long road and the beginning of another. Intense planning had come to fruition; royals, guests, staff, security, the media, and the public were all in their places. The most anticipated royal wedding in decades was playing out with levels of interest that would follow this couple for the rest of their lives.
For many, it was the ultimate fairytale. Diana’s son, who the public had followed since birth and watched suffer the unbearable grief of his mother’s death, had found true love. And, in stark contrast to his parents’ brief and ill-fated courtship, William had taken eight years to pop the question that would thrust his girlfriend into the full glare of the spotlight.
