Caroline of Monaco: Vintage Summer Fashion Inspiration

Long before Charlotte Casiraghi, her mother was a real “it girl”. Caroline of Monaco, who herself inherited elegance and style from her mother, Grace Kelly, has often made headlines for her fashion taste. The princess’ youthful summer looks are still an endless source of inspiration today.

When it comes to looks, being a little daring is often rewarded. See the princess, who paired a plaid shirt in shades of pink, red and green with caramel-colored harem pants. To complete the outfit, she added maxi earrings and numerous aged gold bracelets. In the photo, taken in August 1981, Caroline is accompanied by her dog, Tiffany.

Accompanied by her father, Rainier III of Monaco, her brother Albert and her mother, the princess went to the Aldwych Theater in London in 1971. At the age of 14, Caroline already had a keen sense of fashion and wore for the occasion, a midi dress with an ethnic print, adorned with mandalas. As summer draws to a close in the English capital, the princess opted for a loose white shirt tucked under her dress and a pair of loafers. Naturally loose hair, a small black patent leather chain bag, and you’re done. An ultra-easy look to adopt.

Pout or not, the mischievous princess has found the perfect summer uniform alongside her mother. Caroline opted for a simple baby doll dress that falls above the knee, adorned with small stripes on the sleeves and the neckline. As for accessories, she chose a pearl necklace, a link bracelet and low-heeled sandals. Timeless, simple and flawless.

Always in the company of her mother, to whom she likes to match her outfits, Caroline opts for a total pink look: T-shirt, pearl necklaces and floral sarong. To survive the humidity of New Jersey beaches, the princess pulled her hair back into a ponytail, just like Grace.

1990, a golden year to have fun with fashion without reaching the excesses of volume and colors that the 1980s allowed. Note that the princess, mischievous as usual, placed a fork, a knife and a spoon on the central lapel of her dress. And if we disregard this “little” detail, the outfit couldn’t be simpler: a fitted black dress that stops at the knee, without straps and with black tights. Her sister Stephanie, who accompanies her to an event organized by their mother’s Junior Committee foundation, bet on an equally elegant look.

Alongside her brother and her mother, Caroline sports a beautiful red dress with a neckline worthy of actress Brigitte Bardot during a family celebration. This long model is adorned with small satin flowers and a flounce on the skirt. The princess added gold jewelry, opted for very natural makeup and an unadorned hairstyle. In short, an ideal outfit for summer nights.

Posing with her first husband, Philippe Junot, the Princess of Monaco donned a white midi dress with a V-neckline, short sleeves and small ruffles. On the accessories side, the minimalist gold jewelry is a hit, as is her belt with a heart as a buckle, matching her spouse’s shirt.

At first glance, we could recognize Charlotte, her daughter, during one of her trips to New York, but it is indeed Caroline in a timeless polka dot dress. The cut is also very trendy and flattering: boat neck, voluminous long sleeves, small bow on the hip and slit at the knee. A look you wish you could wear all summer long.
