NEWLYWED Kate joins the royal recycling brigade after giving her favourite coat another outing.

She has injected new life into the monarchy with her much-admired sense of style.

But it seems the Duchess of Cambridge is also following a considerably older royal tradition ? recycling favourite garments.

At a church service yesterday to mark the 90th birthday of the Duke of Edinburgh, Kate wore the same periwinkle blue Jacquard coat dress that she donned in 2009 for the wedding of her husband?s close friend, Nicholas van Cutsem.

She paired it with LK Bennett heels that she has sported several times recently ? which are identical to pairs owned by her sister Pippa and mother Carole.


And a day earlier, the 29-year-old attended the wedding of close friend Sam Waley-Cohen in the same black and white silk cocktail dress that she wore on a night out in London with Pippa in 2007, during her brief split from William.

By dusting down her old outfits for high-profile occasions, the Duchess echoes the policy of the Queen and the Princess Royal, who both take great delight in getting the most out of their wardrobes.
