The Princess of Wales, one of the British royal family’s most consistently stylish members, was yet another high-profile figure who could not hold back from embracing this year’s Barbiecore trend.

Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie, starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, sparked a passion for all-pink looks even before it hit cinemas in July. For a day of engagements about London in May, the royal style icon chose a pastel pink pantsuit from British label Alexander McQueen. She accessorised the smartly tailored look with a coordinating blouse and an embellished belt.
