Pippa vs Kate Middleton Fashion and Style 2011
Since the royal wedding, who could have predicted that the younger Middleton would have eclipsed her sister in column inches about the way she dresses. We’ve pitted Middleton against Middleton in the ultimate sibling style war to see who really does reign as fashion queen.
Pippa
Pippa opted for knee-high suede boots like her sister but her outfit is a little more revealing. We love the crochet detailing of the dress.
Kate
Kate keeps everything under wraps in this little black dress but has sexed the demure outfit up a little with the addition of knee-high suede boots.
Verdict: Although Kate looks very chic in her all-black ensemble, Pippa is the queen of head-to-toe black and the colour lends itself quite naturally to her.
Winner: Pippa (Link)
Kate
Kate is a fan of blazers and is often snapped wearing one, no matter what the occasion. The fitted style really suits her body shape.
Pippa
Like sister, like sister... Pippa also throws on a blazer at any opportunity. We love the relaxed look she pulled off the day after her sister's nuptials in this navy blazer.
Verdict: We love the fact that Pippa's blazer is from Zara, so we're awarding her this round.
Winner: Pippa (Link)
Pippa was the first Middleton to really embrace nude tones and looks gorgeously romantic in her dress at a charity gala.
Kate
Kate is captured on a rare night out looking ultra-glam in her nude dress and black accessories.
Verdict: We think both sisters look super glossy in their tonal palette but Kate wins for the lovely lace overlay on the dress.
Winner: Kate (Link)
Pippa looks a little dowdy photographed about town in a red and white checked coat. It's not the Pippa we are used to seeing.
Kate
Kate looks amazing in her trench coat - a picture of royal elegance.
Verdict: Kate certainly has the edge over Pippa here. We're awarding her extra marks too as the coat is by hip British brand Burberry.
Winner: Kate (Link)
This colour is great on the sisters - it really works well with those glossy chestnut locks. Pippa's casual look is perfect for a day around London.
Kate
Kate is wearing one of her favourite designers, Issa. The colour and shape are perfect on her enviable frame.
Verdict: No one can deny although the colour suits both of the girls equally, Kate does look amazing and deserves to win.
Winner: Kate (Link)
Pippa looks fabulous in denim and manages to look edgier than her sister in her choice of skinnies and more adventurous shades.
Kate
Kate may be royalty but she loves denim like us mere mortals. She is usually spotted in classic indigo shades.
Verdict: We're digging Pippa in her strides.
Winner: Pippa (Link)
Pippa looks fabulous in her choice of an amethyst mini on a night out. We love the daring length, which is just on the right side of demure through the addition of black opaques.
Kate
Cobalt is always bound to make an impression and the colour really is striking on Kate. We're just not too sure about her choice of hat.
Verdict: Another one to Pippa. There's no arguing she looks hot to trot.
Winner: Pippa (Link)
Pippa looked amazing in her choice of outfit for the French Open. The skirt showed off her tiny waist. We are also coveting her tan arm candy.
Kate
Kate can also carry off the monochrome look but her skirt sits too low on her hips and doesn't create the most flattering silhouette.
Verdict: Pippa's outfit is more flattering to her slimline figure.
Winner: Pippa (Link)
Pippa
Pippa keeps her wedding look very demure opting for a dress coat and an appropriate hem-length.
Kate
Kate was a vision of coordination when she wore this statement lace-print coat.
Verdict: It was a close call but Kate takes it for her celebratory colour palette.
Winner: Kate (Link)
Kate: 4
Verdict: Pippa! It was a close call but Pippa wins the crown for being the most stylish sister. All hail the new style queen! (Link)
