Style advice: The Duchess of Cambridge is believed to have been using personal shoppers at Harvey Nichols and Selfridges to help her put together a wardrobe for her upcoming U.S. and Canada tour


She doesn't have a stylist, and will not be bringing a dresser on her upcoming tour of the U.S. and Canada. But it seems the Duchess of Cambridge is not without some assistance when it comes to making sartorial decisions.

According to new reports, Catherine has been consulting personal shoppers at her favourite London department stores, who help put her looks together.

Grazia Daily revealed today that the 29-year-old has been using style advisers at Selfridges and Harvey Nichols to help choose a wardrobe for her first trip abroad as a Royal wife.


It claims that Catherine has been consulting the same person used by her husband, Prince William, and his brother, Prince Harry, to do their Christmas shopping.

But her decision to buy her clothes at high-end retailers indicates that she may be stepping away from here favourite High Street labels, such as Reiss, Whistles and LK Bennett, in favour of designer pieces.

While in-store style advisers can offer sound advice when it comes to style and fit, they are not a substitute for a bona fide stylist.

Grazia explained: 'Where a personal shopper will help you to pick out outfits under your direction, a stylist will be more creative and will direct your style.

Retail therapy: Selfridges, on London's Oxford Street, stocks many of Catherine's favourite labels - but appointments with its personal shoppers are highly coveted and can book up weeks in advance


'[This] is interesting in terms of Kate because it’s another mark of how confident she is in being able to style herself - confidence which is very well-founded, if her recent sartorial choices are anything to go by.'

The stores' personal shopping services are free to customers, but appointments are highly coveted and slots can book up weeks in advance.

Catherine has certainly stepped up her style game since her wedding, and her sartorial choices, have been universally well-received.
