Get Kate Middleton's Wimbledon style with this £44 Roman polka dot dress
The final weekend for Wimbledon provided us with plenty of summer style inspiration. Kate Middleton appeared at the tennis tournament on Saturday (July 12), looking stunning as ever in pale yellow midi dress, and it prompted us to look back on some of her previous looks for the sports event.
While most of us don't have a royal budget to splurge on the Princess of Wales' exact ensembles, there's still a way to capture her style without emptying our wallets. Over at Next, a Roman polka-dot midi dress is perfect for replicating her look, particularly one outfit from Wimbledon in 2022.
The best part? It comes with a purse-friendly price tag of £44. The Navy Polka Dot Ruched Sleeve Midi Dress has received glowing reviews on the Roman website, where it's now sold out, boasting an impressive 4.9 out of 5-star rating. It comes in three colourways, including Kate's preferred navy shade, with sizes ranging from 10 to 20.
Featuring the Princess' favourite polka dot print, Roman's woven midi dress is sure to become a staple in wardrobes during the warmer months, reports OK!. Designed with a feminine V-neckline, this Kate-inspired piece features short, ruched sleeves for an elegant and timeless look.
This number also features charming button details, which add a casual vibe without taking away from its sophistication and chic wearability. The thick waistband is crafted to create flattering pleats, making it a truly stunning piece.
The fit-and-flare silhouette hugs the waist for that enviable figure-skimming appearance, whilst the voluminous skirt introduces a dose of Princess Kate's emblematic elegant flair. Shoppers can style this effortlessly chic midi-length piece with a pair of heeled wedges. For a more laid-back look, add trainers and make it a classic Wimbledon style.
Roman fans love the dress as one delighted buyer gushed: "This is my absolute favourite dress of all time. It fits beautifully, is very flattering and is extremely comfortable."
Another enthusiast praises effusively: " Lovely style, length and material. Ideal for any occasion."
A shopper bought it for a special event and shared: "I love this dress. I bought it for a spring wedding. It's a perfect fit. I bought my usual size 14. I've added a modesty panel as it was a wee bit low at the front for me."
But one removed a star from their review, explaining: "Love the fit of the dress and the material but the sleeves were incredibly tight. I waited for ages for a bigger size to become available but it never did (and I'm not sure if the sleeves would have fit much better anyway) so I made some alterations to the sleeves myself."
Another contented client celebrates the garment's sophisticated allure: "Elegant, sophisticated, and feminine. The fabric is light and breezy. I love it."
Those seeking similar styles can head straight to Phase Eight. There, the Jenna Spot Wrap Midaxi Dress in Kate's preferred navy and white combo is on sale for £62.10, down from £139, with sizes available up to a UK26.
Meanwhile, Boden's Blue Natalia Jersey Tea Dress features big and small polka dots in a flattering fit and flare shape. It retails for £99 but shoppers can enjoy 15% off with the code: W7CX and purchase it for £84.15.
And for those who enjoy a Debenhams shopping spree, the retailer has its own take with the Jolie Moi Spot Print Chiffon Maxi Dress in navy and white - now £63 (was £68).

Shoppers are rushing to bag Morrisons' Baileys dupe that tastes like Dubai chocolate & you'll have change from a tenner
Plus, the other Dubai chocolate dupes on the market CHOC SHOCK Shoppers are rushing to bag Morrisons' Baileys dupe that tastes like Dubai chocolate & you'll have change from a tenner Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MANY people - and supermarkets - have gone Dubai chocolate mad, and the craze has spread to other products too. Shoppers can now pick up a Dubai Chocolate cream liqueur drink from Morrisons, which could take your next dinner party to the next level. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Morrisons is selling a Dubai chocolate cream liqueur Credit: Tiktok/@newfoundfood 3 Some people have raved about the £7 drink - while others aren't impressed Credit: Tiktok/@newfoundfood TikTok account @newfoundfood uploaded a clip of the bottle in their local supermarket and showed how it costs £7. Despite making the most of the popular flavour, they did not seem impressed with the drink version. They wrote: 'wtf have Morrisons done?' The tipple combines the classic chocolate and nutty pistachio flavouring to deliver a deliciously sweet digestif cream liqueur. Many people were quick to agree with being baffled at the drink. One said: 'Why does EVERYTHING have to be Dubai chocolate.' Another added: 'Nope.' However, some people did seem impressed with the liquor, with one writing: 'tbf it is banging.' Donovan's Dubai Chocolate Style Country Cream Liqueur is available in Morrisons stores nationwide and online. It comes after Lidl was forced to place a shopping limit on its Dubai Chocolate-inspired exotic treat. Shoppers in frenzy over cheapest Dubai chocolate arrival in major Irish store at just €1.79 The Della Sante Dubai Style Chocolate Cream spread combines the flavours of the insanely popular chocolate but in spreadable form. That means you can slather it on toast, pile it onto pancakes, dip fruit in it or even spoon it from the jar. The sweet and salty pots cost £4.99 or £3.99 for Lidl Plus members, which is far more expensive than the store's other chocolate spreads. However, the price tag is not deterring customers, and the shop was forced to implement a strict three-jar-only policy. The Sun recently spotted a queue outside the Gosport, Hampshire, store at 8am with shoppers eagerly waiting for the doors to open. 3 Dubai chocolate - with its nutty pistachio flavour - has boomed in popularity this year Credit: Getty Chocolate fans have been going crazy for supermarket dupes of the expensive Dubai chocolate bars and they've been going viral on social media. Lidl's version was the cheapest when it was brought out at £3.99. Before it arrived in stores, the chocolate bar had been available on Lidl's TikTok Shop. It wasn't around for long though as it sold out in a mere 84 minutes. Numerous supermarkets and bargain stores have been jumping on the Dubai-style chocolate trend. One of the most-anticipated was the M&S version, which it turned out was a new take on the viral Big Daddy chocolate bar. The Big Daddy Pistachio is on the pricier end, costing £8.50 for a big 280g bar. Similarly posh supermarket Waitrose also released a version for £10.

Inside Kate Moss' wild new lifestyle as pals fear boozy supermodel, 51, is going back to her old 90s partying ways
The snaps of Kate partying come just weeks after the collapse of her wellness empire Cosmoss, as an onlooker at BST claims the supermodel was 'knocking back cans of Peroni' KATE MESS 2.0 Inside Kate Moss' wild new lifestyle as pals fear boozy supermodel, 51, is going back to her old 90s partying ways Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) KATE MOSS swapped wellness crystals for cans of lager at the weekend as she partied among revellers at BST Hyde Park Festival. In scenes reminiscent of her hedonistic Nineties antics, the supermodel, 51, knocked back the booze and enjoyed music by big names including Van Morrison and Neil Young. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 Kate was photographed holding a bottle of Corona and puffing on a cigarette as she walked through central London last week Credit: BackGrid 6 Kate Moss and daughter Lila enjoy a sunshine holiday in Ibiza Credit: BackGrid Onlookers said she appears to be back on the party circuit. 'Kate was having it large at Hyde Park and was knocking back cans of Peroni,' one told me. 'She was hanging out in Van Morrison's private backstage area, before watching him from the side of the stage — before she went back to the bar for another drink. 'When she watched Neil Young, she flitted between the audience and the suites to keep the beers flowing. READ MORE IN SHOWBIZ GIRL POWER Huge Girls Aloud star reveals she's working on new girlband talent show 'Kate sank a fair few drinks with her friends and quietly slipped away before Neil finished his set. 'The whole time she was laughing and giggling. 'Kate was quite literally the life and soul of the party. And there wasn't a crystal in sight.' This isn't the first time fans have seen glimmers of the old Kate in action. Last month, festivalgoers at Glastonbury claimed they saw her partying on Worthy Farm. One told me: 'People keep saying they've seen Kate, but she's flying so under the radar no one can get a clear sighting of her. Watch worrying moment Kate Moss looks 'on edge and frantic' as she poses front row at Paris Fashion Week 'Wants to have fun' 'It's like old times when she'd been partying hard at Glastonbury until sunrise and everyone was looking out for her. 'There was a rumour going around that she was spotted in one of the VIP areas in Block 9 wearing a veil, but no one could say for sure it was her.' My insiders tell me that Kate was, indeed at Glastonbury, but that she shunned on-site camping for a more comfortable stay at the nearby private members' club, Babington House. 'Kate wasn't up until late afternoon and would head over to Worthy Farm around 9pm,' one source explained. 'She stayed at Babington to stay away from the crowds, but she went to Glasto and had a riot. 'Lila, Kate's daughter, was there, too. They had a lot of fun.' Fans who have stuck with the supermodel since she found fame as a teenager are, naturally, concerned. The photographs of her partying with beers at BST came just weeks after the collapse of her wellness empire Cosmoss, which would be a bitter pill for her to swallow. Just days before Glastonbury began, Kate's company called in liquidators. In total, it owes unsecured creditors £2,939,729. And papers signed by the supermodel revealed that Cosmoss has little more than £5,000 in the bank, with £241,000 of leftover stock. Kate launched the brand in 2022 after the lockdown put paid to her partying. Back in 2020, one of her closest pals, DJ Fat Tony, said she had been sober for two years. And as she launched Cosmoss, Kate unveiled a rebranded version of herself to fans. She said at the time: 'I had time on my hands. I wanted to create something that would help me feel more grounded, something I could share. 'Cosmoss was literally blended at my kitchen table.' The range — which is no longer available to order — included teas, a face oil and a 'sacred mist' which is said to 'provide a sense of inner peace'. Kate was having it large at Hyde Park and was knocking back cans of Peroni Onlooker at BST In the interviews that followed to promote her products, Kate gave an insight into her clean new world and said she had started bathing in the moonlight to cleanse herself. She revealed: 'I like to start my day with tea and meditation, followed by some Pilates or yoga.' Highlighting her love of wellness crystals, she added: 'I put them out in the garden overnight when it's a full moon to cleanse them. I really believe in their power, and believe in the mystical and spiritual side of wellness.' Cracks in Kate's wellness journey began to show in 2023, when she stepped back into the spotlight and was out partying more. She was seen holding hands with the singer Skip Marley – grandson of reggae legend Bob – during a party in Turkey in May last year. 'Back out there' That was before being filmed falling out of a taxi during Lila's 22th birthday celebrations in Paris in October. It was Kate's return to her party lifestyle, pals claim, that influenced the break-up with her teetotal boyfriend of nine years, British photographer Nikolai Von Bismarck. In December, friends told this newspaper that the pair were going on 'different journeys'. One pal revealed: 'Kate feels fabulous and she wants to get back out there and have some fun.' And they weren't kidding. For her 51st birthday celebrations in January, a month after the split with Nikolai, Kate partied at three different venues across London. The revelry was in stark contrast to her more demure 50th, when she held a low-key bash in Paris for a tight-knit group of friends. But this year, Kate hired out a suite in the Dorchester in Park Lane, before throwing a dinner at the hotel's luxury restaurant, China Tang. She was joined by celebrity including Nineties party pal Stella McCartney and Jade Jagger. Kate feels fabulous and like she wants to get back out there and have some fun Friend Kate then headed to The Globe in Notting Hill, West London, with her group, where they partied until the early hours of the morning. While many fans and followers welcomed the old Kate back with open arms, others were concerned about her behaviour. Even more so after a bizarre video of her at Paris Fashion Week this March went viral. 6 A bizarre video of her at Paris Fashion Week this March went viral Credit: Tiktok 6 The model was seen acting erratically and jerking from side to side at the Isabel Marant show Credit: Tiktok/@lucienpagescomunication 'Prime of her life' In the clip, from Isabel Marant's show, Kate was seen acting erratically and jerking from side to side. One fan said on social media: 'Why is she so fidgety? This just makes me anxious.' Another added: 'Why is nobody talking about this? I feel sad every time I see this.' Meanwhile, on TikTok, another worried fan wrote: 'Why did they post this? Kate is seemingly not OK.' Less than a week after the video, Kate was photographed holding a bottle of Corona beer and puffing away on a cigarette as she walked through central London. Kate's a woman in the prime of her life and she wants to have fun Friend It is a stark contrast to the clean-living wellness guru of two years ago. Friends close to Kate insist there is nothing for people to worry about. 'Kate's a woman in the prime of her life and she wants to have fun,' one told me. 'She hangs out with Lila a lot, too, and thinks of herself as a 'cool mum' who can keep up with the young ones. 'People are shocked because it's not the Kate they've seen for a while, but she likes a few drinks and she smokes like a chimney — albeit she's using vapes now because they're 'healthier'. She's always the one to get a party started and wants to get back out there and enjoy life. 'The people speculating about her on social media need to stop worrying so much. 'Kate has just come back from Ibiza with Lila and she had a great time at BST. 'She'll focus on closing down Cosmoss, then will be looking for her next venture. 'Kate isn't a woman who can be kept down for long.' 6 The model pictured arriving at Zoe Kravitz's house in Paris after the Yves Saint Laurent after-party earlier this year Credit: Splash
