Hey, if it ain’t broken, why fix it?

However, some of her other go-tos aren’t as timeless as she might hope.

The princess' outfit felt very Katniss Everdeen with a dash of HBO’s “Girls.”

Later that year, Catherine once again wore skinny jeans to an event.

She sported a fitted white scoop-neck top beneath a stunning cobalt double-breasted blazer with antique gold buttons.

The royal paired the bright coat with black pants and a black blouse.

The color palette was reminiscent of a bumblebee.

Or, yes, a school bus.

However, the color story simply made the whole thing feel dated.

Nonetheless, Catherine decided to embrace the contested style during the Commonwealth of Nations springtime celebration.

The hem of the elegant, coquettish trumpet skirt ended at Catherine’s mid-calf.

The loosely fitted dress featured a mock neck silhouette with a hem that fell just below the knees.

She donned an A-line skirt with a mid-calf hemline and a shrunken blazer the outdated garment in question.

The matronly outfit didn’t exactly feel age-appropriate for Catherine, especially given her trendsetting history.

Additionally, the built-in belt gave the closed jacket a stuffy appearance.

Needless to say, there was more than a lot going on with this dress.

It definitely could’ve been a chic look once upon a time.

After all, it looks like something aroyal would have worn in the ’80s… or the 1940s.

The bodice was adorned with sequins that rained down to the top of the skirt.

Or 1980s Academy Awards Barbie.

Catherine further dated her look by wearing a pair of black skinny jeans.

For the inaugural event, Princess Catherine wore a gown she debuted a decade prior.

Or, you know, the 2011 BAFTAs.

She was slammed by PETA for wearing real fur.

At the time, Mimi Bekhechi of PETA U.K. toldE!

Newsthat the organization intended to reach out to the royal.

Over the last several decades, fur has fallen out of style in a major way.

When Catherine sported those gloves in 2016, the fur free movement was well underway.

To this day, this look is considered one of themost inappropriate outfits Catherine has ever worn.

As far as we can tell, the gloves never made another public appearance.
