Girls just wanna have fun
Among the most talked about and viral, there were the outfits nicknamed “single girl”. Disco nights, parties but also charity events, were remembered above all thanks to the looks shown on those occasions. Around 2008 she was paparazzi in gaudy yellow shorts, a green sequined top and fuchsia socks for the Day-Glo Midnight Roller Disco in South London. An outfit that still makes people talk about itself today. As well as the one worn in 2007, during one evening at the disco with his sister Pippaconsisting of a foulard patterned dress, shoulder bag and black necklace.

I must-have Y2K di Kate Middleton
If you want to approach the 2000s trend that depopulated on the catwalks, from Blumarine to Chanel, copying the Duchess of Cambridge could be the right way to do it. In his Y2K wardrobe the cult pieces of the time were interspersed with more iconic and timeless designs. They were not lacking low waisted jeanstank tops with thin straps, cardigan and belts with large buckles. As well as espadrilles, which she still uses today, shoulder it-bags and blazers in every color. An effective mix & match, which allowed her to express their youthful personality without ever losing sight of the goal: a Queen style.
