Duchess Catherine and Prince William at the Sydney Opera House

Catherine Middleton has been inspiring fashion ever since that Issa navy dress at her engagement announcement and after her recent tour of New Zealand and Australia, eBay has seen a 95% rise in the sales of yellow dresses.

The 19-day tour harboured plenty of beautiful looks but one of the standout looks came from Roksanda Ilincic which she wore to the Sydney Opera House. The striking canary yellow pencil dress looked beautiful on Catherine so it’s no wonder that plenty of women are clamouring to steal her style.

Four days later, Kate was pictured in a pastel number for Easter Sunday at Taronga Zoo with William and George, causing the total sales of yellow dresses on the UK site to almost double during this period.

Kate is not alone in her fondness for the summery hue. The yellow trend is on the up in the UK, with the likes of Susanna Reid pictured in a lemon yellow frock for Good Morning Britain as well as Hollywood sweetheart Emma Stone, who wore a fiery full-length yellow gown to The Amazing Spider-Man 2 premiere in London.
In addition, sales of both floral (+94%) and green dresses (+88%) spiked hugely overnight from the moment Kate was pictured wearing these styles during the tour.

eBay spokesperson, Laura Wilkinson-Rea comments, “The Duchess of Cambridge’s wardrobe undeniably affects what’s in when it comes to style-hunting on eBay, with sales consistently skyrocketing after she is photographed in the latest trend.”

Will you be wearing the summery hue this season?
