These chic pumps are so similar to Princess Kate’s and under £60 | Royal | News
If there is one shoe trend Princess Catherine is quietly championing this season; it is elegant, low heels that feel just as practical as they do polished. During the second day of her hugely significant solo visit to Italy, the Princess of Wales, stepped out in a chic pair of beige-and-black slingback pumps by Camilla Elphick.
The timeless two-tone design instantly gave the outfit a refined, Parisian-inspired feel, while the low heel made them appear far more wearable for everyday occasions than traditional court shoes. These are exactly the kind of shoes that work just as easily for weddings, work events or summer lunches as it does for royal engagements.
The only downside? Catherine’s exact Camilla Elphick pair appears to be from a past season, meaning shoppers may struggle to get their hands on the royal-approved design now.
Naturally, we went searching for a high street alternative – and Aldo may have quietly delivered the perfect option for under £60.
The brand’s ‘Clementinne’ Slingback Heels capture a very similar feel to Catherine’s polished look thanks to the same sophisticated beige-and-black colour palette and timeless slingback silhouette. While the Aldo version features a slightly rounder toe compared to Catherine’s sharper pointed pair, it still delivers that same elegant, vintage-inspired aesthetic beautifully.
The darker beige tone also gives the shoes a slightly richer feel, making them incredibly versatile for styling with creams, blacks, tailoring or floaty summer dresses. And thanks to the wearable one-inch block heel, they feel ideal for anyone wanting something comfortable enough to wear all day without sacrificing style.
They’re available in sizes 3 to 9 – with a chic black version option on offer too. Unlike Catherine’s luxury designer version, the Aldo pair is crafted from synthetic leather rather than premium materials. However, for less than £60, they still feel like an incredibly chic buy – especially considering how versatile the style is likely to become throughout spring and summer.
