Bennett pumpsand sparklyJenny Packhamgowns,The Crowncostume designers(andreal-life mother-daughter duo) Amy and Sidonie Roberts didnt mind.
In fact, Sidonie says she was downright thrilled over the pre-royal wardrobe.
I went to school with girls that dressed like that.
“I loved every fitting, just seeing what Amy and Sidonie pulled from the rack,” Meg Bellamy tells Glamour.
Plus, its an interesting period because we call it no mans land in terms of costume.
Its notPrincess Anne in the 60s.
Its a very specific look.
“It was so gorgeous seeing Meg’s journey as an actress from the first fitting and the confidence that she found in playing Kate,” Sidonie says.
We have her from a middle-class schoolgirl to a student at St. Andrews.
Its rather exciting then for people to see where shes come from.
As a result, the Robertses took to eBay, and one shop in Majorca of all places.
Meg Bellamy, pictured on the right, tellsGlamourthat she doesn’t actually own any low-rise boot-cut jeans the way Kate did. “I never have. It really changes how you hold yourself and your posture.”
I just felt like it was serendipity.
Lucky for us, you dont have to go to Majorca to find several of Kate Middletons early staples.
(Although, hey, a field trip to the island off of Spain sure does sound nice.)
Shes always been very loyal to Kate, and still is.
She didnt want any credit.
She just said, Id love to give you these boots for Meg.
That was Whistles key piece.
We had a pink one also, but that was cut.
Whistles doesnt make that same cardigan anymore, but you might stillbuy it on eBay.
It really changes how you hold yourself and your posture.
Otherwise it just looks like a kind of V-neck top.
Speaking of Kates boot-cut jeans, most of them were purchased on eBay.
So eBay was my best friend.
