Both William and Kate had recycled their looks for the awards, which aims to help tackle climate change.

He continued: “The choice to wear old clothes maybe would’ve made some people feel very uncomfortable.

“But by setting the trend it shows their commitment to the cause…

“…that by pushing the boundaries they can gain support for an organisation or charity the couple both believe in.”

Concluding his analysis, Mr Stanton said: “I think the vast majority of people are finding Kate and William’s approach to their public appearances and interviews completely refreshing.
