Kate Middleton's £1,500 Heart Necklace Inspires £20 Dupe

The Princess of Wales continues to set style trends, with her latest accessory—a gold heart pendant necklace from British designer Daniella Draper—sparking demand for affordable alternatives. The £1,500 piece, worn with a chocolate brown Edeline Lee dress and Catherine Walker coat during a visit to Lambeth Palace, features a handcrafted heart pendant on a chain link.

Heart-shaped necklaces, once ubiquitous in the 1980s and 1990s thanks to icons like Princess Diana, are making a comeback in 2026. High-end labels such as Chloe and Vivienne Westwood are reviving the trend, alongside high-street brands like Edge of Ember and Missoma.

For those seeking a budget-friendly option, a £19.99 dupe from Parfois offers a similar look. Made from stainless steel with a link chain and heart charm, it costs more than £1,400 less than the royal's original. Daniella Draper's necklace is crafted from 9-carat yellow recycled gold and can be personalised.
