Kate used to wear headbands for weddings and church ceremonies, adding a touch of style to her outfits.

However, for formal royal events, hats are considered more appropriate than headbands.

Since becoming Princess of Wales, Kate has already phased out her headband obsession.

As she prepares to be queen consort, Kate's fashion choices have evolved.

She's been experimenting with more fashionable looks while still staying true to royal etiquette.

Holder predicts that Kate will opt for a stylish hat at King Charles' coronation.
