Everybody's style evolves over the years, and the Princess of Wales is no different. Certain pieces Kate Middleton used to wear all the time have completely disappeared from her wardrobe, replaced with fresher, more modern trends.
For example, she used to wear printed skinny pants frequently, but these days, she's ditched them in favor of wide-leg trousers. Yes, she does still wear skinny jeans, but only for super-casual looks—she doesn't style them with blazers and heels like she used to. Scroll down to see all four outdated trends she never wears and exactly what she's replaced each one with.
