Princess Beatrice’s Floral Shirtdress is This Summer’s Must-Have Staple

Bright and vibrant florals have always been a hallmark of spring and summer style, which is why we were delighted to see Princess Beatrice in the royal box at Wimbledon this week, absolutely nailing the trend. Her dress of choice? A lace floral shirtdress from Monique Lhuillier, priced at $3,295. Although her dress is on the pricier side, it remains very much in stock. The good news is that there are plenty of reasonably priced alternatives available that still offer a royal feel.

What makes Beatrice’s style such a standout? As a silhouette, the shirtdress is classic and versatile. Floral or not, it’s a summer staple for many reasons: its one-and-done polish, its breezy aesthetic, and mainly its flattering shape. The belt provides a waist-nipping detail that can be adjusted to suit various body types. Bea’s choice of a bold floral pattern with a range of rainbow hues makes it feel fun. Accompanied by her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, she made an impression that we’d love to emulate in our own summer closets.

So, how do you get the look? The style from Monique Lhuillier is certainly unique, but similar vibes can be achieved with some more budget-friendly options we’ve curated.

First up, the exact shirtdress worn by Beatrice is elegant and comes in a midi length. Available for $3,295 at Monique Lhuillier, it’s a luxurious option for those looking to match her style precisely.

Another choice is a floral shirtdress from Tuckernuck. This dress features full-length sleeves but maintains a bright and airy aesthetic. Priced at $328, it’s a more affordable option that still captures the essence of Beatrice’s look.

If you’re seeking something even more budget-friendly, Sézane offers a style that’s not a traditional shirtdress but gives off a similar vibe. This piece, priced at $230, is a very close replica of Bea’s dress, offering a stylish yet economical option.

Back to Wimbledon: Keeping tabs on which royal faces will pop up next in the royal box can feel like a sport in itself. We’ve already seen Carole Middleton this week. Will it be Prince William or maybe even Princess Kate next? We’ll be keeping our eyes on the ball box to find out.
