Princess Charlotte has always been a fashion icon, with her plethora of regal outfits selling out in mere minutes. One of her signature accessories is the humble hair bow, and the young royal is rarely without the cute hair item when she steps out in public.
During Trooping the Colour 2026, the 11-year-old looked perfectly poised as she sat in a carriage alongside her mother and her brothers, Prince George and Prince Louis. Taking centre stage, she wore a new dress for the occasion, designed by Alessandra Rich. The pretty ensemble was crafted in an angelic off-white colour and boasted a traditional collar, finished with appliqué detail.

Charlotte's new bow is the smaller version of the 'Fauna' - described online as a "beautifully layered double bow, this delicate accessory is crafted from fine, lightweight organza for a romantic, airy finish. Set on a secure crocodile clip, this hair accessory can be easily styled into updos, ponytails, or placed to one side for a polished look."
Why are hair bows so popular?
There was once a time when bows of any sort were only thought of as stylish fashion accessories; often associated with the Victorian era, where they were sometimes used to trim dresses. However, over time, they have become so much more popular, particularly when securing hairstyles.

"They add instant charm and sophistication without being overly formal, making them versatile for both casual and more dressed-up outfits," she noted.
