Princess Charlotte is quickly emerging as her mum Kate Middleton’s mini-me daughter, with both shining in dresses by Alexander McQueen with matching floral headpieces – not tiaras – at the coronation

During Easter celebrations, they wore bright blue ensembles from Rachel Riley and Catherine Walker, and went for festive burgundy tones at a family event with Prince William and Queen Camilla

Considering her mum is the stylish Kate Middleton, we’re not surprised that little Princess Charlotte is replicating some of her mum’s most fashionable looks. It’s even sweeter though when the royal mother-daughter duo coordinate their outfits to twin together.

At King Charles’ coronation, the dress code was intended to be more pared back with no tiaras in sight, per CNN. But that’s not to say statements weren’t made. The Princess of Wales opted for a delicate Jess Collett x Alexander McQueen floral headpiece in honour of the monarch’s green theme, and matched with Princess Charlotte, who donned the same iconic accessory.

Let’s look at the dynamic duo’s best mother-daughter matching moments to date …

At the recent coronation on May 6, history was made in many ways, from crowning King Charles, the oldest monarch to ever take the British throne, to Prince Harry’s notable absence from the royal family balcony.

On the fashion front, the new king reportedly implemented a “meritocratic, not aristocratic” theme, which explains the lack of tiaras at the national event.

Always striving to be a green warrior, 41-year-old Middleton turned to her trusted designer Alexander McQueen, who designed her silver leafy headpiece in collaboration with Jess Collett for the royal gathering. Her ceremonial cape was also from Alexander McQueen.
