They say don't follow trends, set them. This has become something of a royal mantra, as members of the prestigious family can spark fashion mania with the smallest of style changes. Case and point? Well, Princess Olympia of Greece's Mary Janes for one, Lady Amelia Windsor's championing of upcoming brands another.

Even the most famous of royals are adopting the role of pioneers of style. Princess Beatrice is an avid recycler of beloved royal brands such as Beulah London and Princess Eugenie has a penchant for on-trend headbands. How very Prada.

If one plans a trip to New York, then it's a requirement that one must pack a series of impeccable outfits. Following in the footsteps of Carrie Bradshaw, Princess Beatrice hopped across the pond for a touching event, bringing with her finest attire for her East Coast trip.

The 34-year-old attended a World Dyslexia Assembly in New York on Monday where she openly discussed her experience with learning difficulties. For the poignant occasion, the princess relied upon her trusty designer dress by Beulah London, curating a look of the utmost elegance.

She wore the brand's 'Ahana Dress' in a rich shade of navy, which featured a streamlined, belted waistline, long sleeves, a shirt-style silhouette, a classic collar and a midi skirt outline. The £795 garment was paired with some black point-toe heels that quite literally elevated the royal's look.

Princess Eugenie's pregnancy has offered up a delightful array of maternitywear hits, yet the royal has just added another string to her sartorial bow. On Saturday, the 33-year-old attended a friend's wedding in Mayfair alongside her husband Jack Brooksbank, looking fabulous in florals.

Serving up a lesson in the art of wedding guest dressing, the royal looked ever-elegant in a ditsy print dress featuring earth-toned blooms that cascaded across a romantic black backdrop. The frock also boasted an ethereal pleated skirt, a round neckline and a loose fit, perfect for enhancing her baby bump.

A pair of nude point-toe heels complemented her spring-ready attire, in addition to an oatmeal-hued leather handbag showcasing a delicate metallic handle and gold hardware.

On Tuesday, the Duchess of Edinburgh stepped out to open The Headley Court Veterans' Orthopaedic Centre at The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Hospital in Shropshire. For the event, the royal assembled a dashing new look that exuded decadence while retaining her signature sophisticated touch.

The newly-appointed Duchess sported a suave white blazer by Altuzarra with sleek notched lapels, a double-breasted cut, gold button detailing and a nipped-in waistline. She paired the pristine garment with a longline burgundy skirt and Prada pumps to create the perfect colour contrast.

During her trip, the Duchess also attended a LEAF Teenage Research Event at Harper Adams University. She sweetly wore some silver leaf-style drop earrings as a gesture to the purpose of her outing.

Lady Amelia Windsor

On Wednesday evening, Lady Amelia Windsor attended a cocktail party to celebrate the Siedres pop-up shop on Conduit Street. The socialite wore the Turkish brand's 'Aria Top,' which features a sunny shade of baby yellow, delicate lace panels with self-tie ribbon detailing and a weblike floral design.

The 28-year-old paired the £235 garment with some sleek black trousers, in turn conjuring up images of Mediterranean summers fused with classic city style.

The Grecian royal shares a series of images via social media looking divine in pieces sourced from the luxury French fashion house. She wore the label's £3,500 '3-in-1 Macrocannage Trench Coat,' which boasted a beige cotton gabardine, a detachable top, a tonal belt and button fastening that adorned the front of the item.

The stunning outerwear piece was paired with the brand's on-trend patent 'Aime Ballerina Black Patent Calfskin Pumps,' a pair of rose pink jeans and a black crewneck long-sleeve top.
