As we move into the next phase of summer, we look forward to another month of next-level royal style.
July brought us Wimbledon with its plentiful royal appearances including the comeback of the Princess of Wales who outshone all in a vibrant purple Safiyaa dress.
August promises plenty more sporty appearances from Europe's royals even after the end of the Paris Olympic Games. Beyond the velodrome and the swimming pools, we patiently await a slew of royal outings where sartorial prowess is put on full display.
