Peter Phillips' wife Harriet (née Sperling) may be the latest to join the royal family following her wedding in June 2026, but she's proven she plans to maintain her individual style credentials, regardless of whether they follow the unspoken royal rules.
The NHS nurse was pictured modelling a mini dress from luxury womenswear brand Wiggy Kit, who shared the photo on Instagram. Lounging on an outdoor chair, Harriet embraced the summer weather in the brand's 'Mini Patti Dress', which featured breathable linen material in a bright orange retro floral print and a contrasting white bib.
The shorter hem showed off Harriet's long, toned legs, while her strappy nude heels from Loeffler Randall and bright orange pedicure accentuated her golden tan.
Accessorising to perfection, the 45-year-old simply added a blue pendant necklace and her sparkling engagement ring from Peter.
The latest look showed off a more daring side to Harriet, who has favoured elegant midi dresses and brands such as Beulah London since her romance with Peter hit the headlines.
One of her most recent looks was the baby blue Beulah dress she wore to support Prince William at a charity polo match at the Guards Polo Club in Windsor. Showing off her spectator style, she wore the timeless 'Aybra Cornflower Dress', which featured a fitted bodice, a belted waist, and an A-line midi-length skirt.
Days earlier, she had opted for a lime-green and pink belted dress by her wedding dress designer, Emilia Wickstead, for an appearance at Wimbledon.
Harriet's blend of 'traditional' and 'modern' style was put on display on her wedding day
While Harriet has remained tight-lipped about her style, much like other members of the royal family, Emilia did open up about the design process behind the figure-hugging lace bridal gown she wore to marry Peter on Saturday 6 June at All Saints' Church in Gloucestershire.
"We aligned on something authentic, traditional, and modern," the designer told British Vogue. Made of Italian ivory crepe, she added that the material beautifully "moulds to the body."
The result of 140 hours of labour, the dress featured a square neckline, long lace sleeves and a removable cropped jacket, which she teamed with matching white Jimmy Choo heels and a vintage diamond and pearl tiara loaned by Pragnell.
The bridal designer later elaborated on Instagram: "An intentional dialogue between tradition and modernity runs throughout the design.
"Every element is rooted in a signature Emilia Wickstead silhouette and realised in Italian ivory crêpe, overlaid with exceptionally fine French Leavers lace featuring an all-over prairie flower motif that continues to the edge of Harriet’s veil. The lace is meticulously hand-applied throughout."
The designer continued: "Its heritage traces back to the early 1900s, following the invention and patenting of the revolutionary Leavers loom in Britain. Scalloped lace appliqué enhances the gown’s architectural, sculptural lines, extending across the neckline and cuffs. Dome buttons allow each scalloped edge to meet with precision along the centre back, underscoring the craftsmanship at the heart of the design."
