Royal Baby Style: Fit for a Prince
With the arrival of Meghan and Harry’s baby, we simply can’t get enough of these looks fit for little princes and princesses. From precious saddle shoes perfect for exploring the castle grounds to an elegant crib fit for a prince, here are our picks for this season’s royal baby style.
The outfits
If you’re like us – completely fascinated by the royal family and all of their outfit choices, then you’ve probably been on the edge of your seat waiting for the arrival of Meghan and Harry’s baby! At last – we can rejoice because Baby Sussex is finally here.
We have no doubt he will be every bit as fashionable as their cousins, George, Charlotte and Louis. It doesn’t matter where they’re going or what time of year it is, we love how timeless their looks are. For Charlotte, antique floral prints and grosgrain ribbon are the perfect combination of playful and sophisticated, while George and Louis always look preppy and dapper in knee socks, t-bar shoes and comfy knits.
While the royal children always look like they’re ready for a high tea, it’s refreshing that while they’re dressed in more traditional pieces, they still look comfortable. That’s a testament to brands like Laranjinha, Amaia and Patachou understanding the needs of today’s kids.
Shoes need to last, dresses need to not itch and pants need to allow for games of tag (when the Queen isn’t looking.) If you’re after some seriously cute royal outfits for spring and summer, check out our edit below.
L’Amour Austin Saddle Oxford Shoe

Complete your baby’s look with Patachou’s bonnet. Delicate, adorable and also functional, it works particularly well with their Christening Gown.
Made with a little prince in mind, the Patachou Piquet Romper can be easily dressed up or down. Try layering it under a crisp white button down and pairing with knee socks and leather closed toed shoes for a more refined look. Want to go more casual? Opt for a short sleeve body suit and leather sandal.
For littler princes, Patachou’s all-in-one romper is a practical way to dress up for a wedding ceremony, church service or trip to a museum.
