Victoria Starmer, the wife of the UK Prime Minister, Keir, always manages to wear the exact right thing for the occasion and last week's meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron.
Championing the high street, Victoria, 52, wore a series of stunning dresses, showcasing the best that the British high street has to offer.
- Victoria Starmer, wife of Prime Minister Keir, wore three show stopping high street dresses to meet the Macrons last week.
- The 52-year-old showcase the best of the British high street.
- Her dresses include a Karen Millen maxi, a Reiss pleated midi and a crisp white Hobbs dress.
Kicking things off, she wore a floral maxi dress from Karen Millen. With its summery blue and red pattern, Victoria's outfit was spot on for the state visit to Downing Street.

Victoria wore the now sold out Lydia Millen Rose Fluid Woven Maxi, a long dress from the 2022 collection with the influencer.
For a similar dress, stay with Karen Millen and the Scattered Floral Print Maxi Dress. It has the same silhouette as Victoria's, from the pleated skirt to the long sleeves and nipped in waist. Retailing for £183.20, it even has the same collar and button up placket as Victoria's design.
CLOSE MATCH: Karen Millen Scattered Floral Print Pleated Maxi Dress

And let's not forget the utterly gorgeous Hobbs White Dress Victoria wore to Trooping The Colour. It was such a beautifully simple yet elegant dress, with a tea dress style silhouette, flattering v-neck and fabric covered buttons.
© GettyI can't find the exact dress online anymore, but Aspiga's White Tea Dress is very much alike Victoria's, with capped sleeves, a button front and v-neck.
"The Prime Minister's wife has a great eye when it comes to her political wardrobe!," noted HELLO!'s Fashion & Beauty News Editor Laura Sutcliffe.
Victoria Starmer's other high street dresses
The mum-of-two is no stranger to the British high street, relying on many top brands for events. One stand out dress that still resonates now is the vibrant red ME+EM Contrast Stitch Dress worn as she joined her husband at Downing Street for his first address after officially becoming Prime Minister.

And I still remember the downright stunning Needle & Thread gown worn to the 2024 State Banquet for Japan's Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako, hosted by King Charles and Queen Camilla at Buckingham Palace.
