Have you ever wondered what type of lingerie Kate Middleton wears? Certainly not me, but I guess now we know. Or at least that’s what this lingerie designer thinks. This designer apparently sent Kate some free pieces and got a note back saying, “thank you for the thoughtful gift”. I’m not sure what the standard response is to free gifts, but I’m pretty sure that’s it. I am surprised that Kate, or Kate’s people, didn’t send the gift back. Supposedly Kate is not allowed to take free samples, but is allowed to accept a nice discount (like 90% maybe?). Anyway… This is another blatant attempt by a designer/website/etc. to link their name with Kate Middleton to generate press for themselves and draw in potential customers. The thing is, though, is that Kate Middleton clearly isn’t a well-respected, married duchess who is about to give birth to her first child, or else a story about what type of lingerie she may or may not wear would never have been printed. It says a lot that such a story would be printed about her. Clearly she’s not the “wonderful savior of the monarchy/Diana 2.0” that everyone was hoping for.
Kate Middleton’s lingerie: Did we really need to know?
I can’t think of a single reason for the world to know what lingerie the Duchess is wearing. Unfortunately, I won’t be surprised if swarms of women rush out to buy something similar.
I know, right? There really is no reason for the world to know what type of lingerie anyone wears, but especially not someone in Kate’s position.
Unfortunately, yes, I’m sure women will want to buy this same lingerie, whish is probably why the owner of that line let this out. It’s sad that designers use Kate’s name to further their own agendas. I wish Kate would focus more on her charities rather than trying to be a huge fashion girl, that way people would stop trying to piggyback on her fame.
Do you mind if I re-blog a couple of your posts sometime in the near future?
No, I don’t mind. 🙂
