When she’s not striding down the halls of Buckingham Palace clad in layers of tulle and organza, the Princess of Wales is frequently found heading to scouting camps or rural farms for royal engagements. 

To muck around in the mud, ride bikes and plant trees, the princess prefers denim to dresses.

While she has worn traditional blue jeans on a handful of occasions, the princess is most often found in darker wash denim.

Here are 4 of Kate Middleton’s Favorite Dark Denim Jeans:

1. Frame Le One Skinny Jeans in Black 

Combining the comfort and ease of jeggings with the features of classic jeans, the princess enjoys these high-waisted jeans for outdoor engagements. 

Worn once while planting a tree to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee in Pontypool, Wales, Kate’s black jeans boast adaptable and revolutionary stretch fabric. In addition they’re equipped with the standard jean details including belt loops, a zip fly and button closure along with five pocket styling.

Composed of 63% organic cotton, 5.5% recycled polyester and 4.5% elastane, the high-rise jeans are perfect for long daytime engagements and recreational royal duty.

 

 

2. Zara Premium The High Waist Revolve Black Jeans 

It’s no great surprise the princess covets inky black jeans from fast fashion retailer Zara.  The British beauty owns denim from the brand in a range of colors; she has skinny jeans from the Spanish label in khaki, royal blue and coral pink. 

Yet, at under $50 and donned on three total occasions, Kate’s budget-friendly black Zara Revolve jeans have been one of her best jeans investments. The stylish Revolve skinnies have amounted to a cost-conscious $16 per wear.

The high-waisted slim leg jeans were worn by the princess on three separate outings in Ireland in March 2020. Kate paired the affordable jeans with a polka slim signature blouse from Equipment, a coral cashmere crewneck sweater from Really Wild and a button-down bow adorned check shirt from model-turned-designer Alexa Chung.

The casual jeans are made from 92% cotton, 6% polyester and 2% elastane. 

 

3. Zara Body Curve Hugging Jeans in Black 

Proving she’s a penny pinching princess like her royal relatives, Kate’s $35.90 jeans would even earn the respect of notoriously thrifty Princess Anne in the style savings department.

The low rise, body hugging ankle-length jeans are ideal for sporting competitions, meeting Royal Air Force cadets and chatting with the masses on Windsor walkabouts.

Princess Kate wore the jeans for a running showdown with Prince Harry and Prince William for their Heads Together charity at Olympic Park in early February 2017 and again a few weeks later at the RAF Wittering on Valentine’s Day in an on-theme red Philosophy di Lorenzo blazer

Made of denim designed to provide comfort and shape, the stretchy jeans mold to the body for a curve hugging and flattering fit. 

 

4. Mother the Weekender Jeans in Deep End Wash 

A bit pricier than her budget buys from Zara, these $258 jeans (available on Amazon) are made in Los Angeles and boast a washed dark black hue.

A cult-favorite, the disco-era faded black wash flares have a 32 1/2-inch length inseam and a clean hem. Cut from American made stretch denim, the jeans feature subtle fading along with light whiskering.

Designed with black hardware, the retro minded jeans have a classic mid-rise and five pocket styling. The jeans are comprised of 81% cotton, 11% lyocell, 6% polyester and 2% elastane. 

The princess has stepped out in the Mother jeans on one occasion in early November 2023 while visiting charity Outfit Moray in Scotland.
