Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, has taken inspiration from Kate Middleton and stepped out in the sell-out white cotton espadrille wedges by Penelope Chilvers this week.
The Duchess attended an afternoon tea in Windsor on Wednesday, wearing a summery blue eyelet dress by sustainable brand Aspiga paired with ankle-tie peep toe espadrille heels.
Sophie has been wearing these wedges regularly since 2023, likely inspired by Kate, who debuted her favourite pair of summer heels in May 2019.
Kate’s Castaner Carina Suede Wedge Espadrilles have become a go-to for countless royal engagements, including her appearance at the Chelsea Flower Show.
Crafted in Spain, these espadrilles showcase a rounded toe, artisanal woven detailing and a cut-out heel. The signature wrap-around ties not only elevate the look but also provide a secure, adjustable fit.
Finished with a cushioned insole and a 9cm jute wedge, they strike the perfect balance between all-day comfort and flattering height.
What’s more, the soft tonal nude shade is endlessly versatile, pairing effortlessly with everything from breezy dresses to tailored trousers.
Ideal for every summer occasion – from Wimbledon and the Henley Royal Regatta to weddings, garden parties and brunch dates – these wedges will instantly elevate any outfit.
While the peep-toe sandals Sophie wore are out of stock, we have found the same version with a closed toe.
