Duchess of Cambridge Kate is the great wardrobe hoarder?

The Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton is said to be the great wardrobe hoarder in the sense that she purchases her designer wears and keep them until she is sure they no longer can be found in stores before she wears them. Pictures above explains between the time the dress were bought and when they were worn. Not a bad idea though. More photos with years of purchase after cut...

An observation made at Royal Family for the Christmas Day service at Sandringham, where she wore a coat that was warm, stylish... and thoroughly out of date. Thousands of fashion fans were frustrated to find that Kate's 'new' double-breasted Turpin coat by British label Moloh has not been available to buy for at least two years. And it's not the first time. The Mail on Sunday can reveal 'hoarding' is now a deliberate strategy by the Duchess, who is keen to avoid causing fashion stampedes or, perhaps, coming face-to-face with women in the same outfit. So she often waits months, or even years, before wearing purchases.
