Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, takes a lot of style inspiration from her late mother-in-law Princess Diana, and these ensembles prove it.

Since Kate Middleton married Prince William and became an integral part of the Royal Family, she has looked to the late Princess Diana for style advice.

Whether the mother to Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis is heading on tour, or attending a low-key royal occasion, she often turns to some of the Princess of Wales' most iconic outfits for inspiration.

And while many of Diana's looks appear very dated in today's world, Kate has become a master of taking the best elements of an ensemble and modernising it to the current times.

If you're still not convinced, take a look at all the iconic times Kate recreated Diana's outfits.
