Denim dress similar to Princess Kate’s is now less than £30

Fashion enthusiasts are likely well aware of Princess Kate’s stylish and sophisticated wardrobe, with many of her standout outfits inspiring similar high-street versions. The great news is we’ve spotted a bargain that could let shoppers bag a denim dress akin to one sported by the Princess of Wales for under £30.
The denim button-front midi shirt dress from Marks and Spencer is reminiscent of a style donned by Catherine when she met Sir David Attenborough in 2020, alongside Prince William and their children. The Royal chose a classic denim shirt dress, a wardrobe essential that continues to demonstrate its timeless appeal.
The M&S version typically sells for £46. However, new members of deals website TopCashback can nab it for £29.85 after cashback when shopping with M&S.
Existing M&S customers can also enjoy savings, with the dress reduced to £30.62 after cashback, making it a budget-friendly way to emulate Kate’s refined style.
Available in sizes 6 to 18, the dress boasts a regular-fit silhouette and a midi-length skirt that falls around the knee for a flattering finish. It features a smart collared neckline for a more polished vibe, while the short sleeves keep it airy and relaxed – perfect for warmer days or effortless layering, reports the Mirror.
When Kate wore her version, she paired it with blue court shoes and a voluminous blow-dry, keeping the overall look classic and understated. High-street shoppers can easily replicate the outfit with pointed-toe heels or elevate it further with a structured blazer.
Beyond M&S, there’s no shortage of denim dresses worth exploring. Take Mint Velvet’s Indigo Denim Zip Midi Dress, now reduced to £85 from £140, which showcases a crew neckline, short puff sleeves and seam detail at the hem.
For a more relaxed vibe, Aligne’s Raven Denim Maxi Dress (£135) fits the bill. This sleeveless number boasts a diagonal seam for added interest, side seam pockets, and a centre back zip.
Returning to the M&S denim button-front midi shirt dress, shoppers have been leaving glowing feedback. One customer revealed: “I’ve been wanting this dress for ages.
“Good quality and beautiful style. Gave me a ’70s vibe when worn with my Swedish Hasbeens. I bought petite 14 and felt it’s a bit on the smaller side.”
Another fan added: “This is such an unusual shape and fit! Modern, unique and great quality and colour. It looked so amazing on my friend that I hunted one down in my size.
“I’m pear-shaped and have wide hips; it was a little tight around there, but I just closed the pockets, and it now looks perfect! One of my favourite dresses now.”
That said, not every review has been entirely positive. One slightly critical comment states: “Such a great versatile dress at an incredible price (even better that I got 20% off). The only comment I would make is that you may need to go up a size as the bust is on the tighter side.”
On a brighter note, one Marks and Spencer enthusiast commented: “Really good quality denim dress in a flattering style. Fits well. Great price for the quality and design. Just love it.”
