Kate Middleton Shines in Style at Wimbledon 2026

As Wimbledon 2026 wrapped up with a thrilling men's final, all eyes were on the Royal Box where Kate Middleton sat, exuding elegance in a green Emilia Wickstead dress. Yet, it wasn't just the dress that caught everyone's attention. The Duchess of Cambridge dazzled with her choice of accessories – a stunning pair of Van Cleef & Arpels earrings from the Magic Alhambra collection.

Fashion's Royale Connection: Van Cleef & Arpels

These earrings, which have become a staple in Kate's royal wardrobe, were first seen at the BAFTAs in 2020, paired with a matching necklace. Kate has since made these earrings her go-to accessory, flaunting them during a Caribbean tour, a coronation concert for King Charles and Queen Camilla in 2023, and at multiple Christmas events in 2023 and 2025.

“Kate Middleton's love for her Van Cleef pieces is as timeless as the jewelry itself,” said a fashion insider.

A Legacy of Glamour

Van Cleef & Arpels has a long, illustrious history of adorning royals, dating back to 1968. The iconic Alhambra collection not only graces Kate's collection but has also been favored by the likes of Princess Grace of Monaco and Queen Camilla. Queen Camilla often sports a vintage Alhambra bracelet, showcasing her fondness for the brand.

The Magic Alhambra Collection

Kate's mother-of-pearl earrings are a testament to the Magic Alhambra's enduring allure. While these earrings are her only known pieces from the brand, they have become emblematic of Kate's refined taste. At Wimbledon, they added a touch of classic charm to her ensemble, proving once again that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
