Princess Diana’s “cleavage clutch”
To keep roaming photographers from capturing a revealing picture, the late Princess Diana used her clutches to cover her cleavage when stepping out of a car. Smart move!
Hats on (not off)
If you've ever wondered how royals hats always stay put, then perhaps Princess Di's will help understand. To keep her in toppers in place, the People’s Princess wore hats with hidden combs. Genius!
Perfect ‘do
Duchess Kate keeps pesky flyaways and strands in place by wearing a hairnet. Are you blown away yet?
No slippin’ here
Another trick to copy next time you wear tights or pantyhose is to wear ones with sticky heels. Kate is a fan of John Lewis tights with built-in sticky pads that prevent sliding.
Stay-put tops
How do you get a perfectly tucked shirt? Just wear a bodysuit à la Meghan. The Duchess of Sussex opts for onesie tops so that her shirts always stay put.
Wind is no issue
It's rare to see royals' skirts or dresses billowing in the wind. And that’s because they wear thicker fabrics and fitted silhouettes that help prevent any embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.
Big shoes to fill
It’s been said that celebrities often wear heels one size larger to prevent – you guessed it – blisters! Here, it looks like Queen Letizia took note of the tip and opted for a size bigger than her usual.
