Kate Middleton Reportedly Snubs Clothing Gift From Kim Kardashian And Sisters

Posted: 19/11/12 | Updated: 20/11/12

Get updates from Ellen Stewart:

Who? Kate Middleton

What? Oh Kate, haven't you ever heard the expression 'don't look a gift horse in the mouth'?

It seems the new Dorothy Perkins line created exclusively by the Kardashian sisters has fallen short of the mark in the Duchess of Cambridge's eyes. Apparently failing to secure the royal stamp of approval, Kim and co's offering to Princess Kate was promptly sent back.

A source reportedly told Marie Claire, "Kate is hardly going to turn up for an event with the Queen in a cheap leopard-print miniskirt or gold sequinned jacket." Oooh burn!

Where? Royal Mail sorting office... perhaps

kardashian sisters

Verdict? Although Kate is accustomed to the high street we're sure she would've preferred a parcel from the likes of Alice Temperley or Alexander McQueen.

What do you make of the rumours, true or false? Would you turn your nose up at a fashion freebie?

Check out Kate's perfect 10 in the gallery below.

Hi

You may not like the Karshadians - does anyone? - but at least they work for a living and don't live off the tax payer.

Yes I know Kat Middleton is lovely, had an awful time as a child being bullied and all the rest of it (we had all the PR gumf before their wedding to gain our undying love) - but at the end of the day she is a celebrity just like the the Kar . . .s. I doubt if she is even aware of the gift, others sift through her post and packages.

Kate has the looks and the figure to make a bin liner look elegant . . . what's the problem?

"They work for a living" Where on earth did you get that one from?

Let us hope she was rude and returned the item. In principle I would not buy anything touched by the Kadashian plastic wannabee talentless sisters.

She should acknowledge that the rest of the country can't afford to wear £3000 dresses and shoes

I don't imagine for a minute that she would be so rude as to send it back! She may not want to wear it but she can always pass it on to a charity shop who would be happy to recycle it. This is often done by people with profiles and no-one is any the wiser! The products only get endorsed if she were to be seen wearing it!

If true it is really no surprise. Even I wouldn't be seen dead in something designed by this lot for a cheap and cheerful outlet like DP! It's ridiculous to expert people with money and taste to want stuff like Bet Lynch style leopard prints, lol!

Sounds like a cheap marketing ploy to claim The Duchess wears their range of clothing

If so, that's not a gift

Anyway... who are these Karshadians???

And mine. I am just a nobody and I wouldn't wear a Dotty P dress. Kate has style, this was a cheap marketing ploy. Good for her.

False. There'd be no way a present would get sent back as that would be rude. This is a made up story. A no brainer.

I am sure that the clothes were sent back by the Palace as this is a cheep shot by the Kardashians to try and claim a Royal stamp on their line of Tat! Can you imagine had these rags been taken in there would be adds all over the place with the claim "As worn by the Duchess of Cambridge".

Exactly
The Kardashian sisters seem to be the USA equivalent of Katie Price times three
And deserve to be refused
ExDancer, you have sussed it out
but I hope you and other readers notice that by using the word "snubbed" the writer, Ellen Stewart,
implies that the Duchess of Cambridge is in the wrong, The writer is wrong, but what's a little denigration between friends?

Yes John that is why I said sent back by the Place to make it clear the it was not the Duchess that snubbed the Kardashians but the people that sanction what goes in and out of the Palace.

The young woman is Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. She is not Princess Kate or Prince Kate or even Kate Middleton. Nothing like consistancy is there?

She should've sent the cheap leopard print mini skirt and gold sequinned jacket to the poor kids in Africa who, upon receiving them, would feel very sorry for the British having to wear such rags and would promise never to try to come to the UK and suffer such indignity as having to wear such things.

What rubbish. Dont believe a word of it.! Kate Middleton is too nice a person to "Return" gifts etc. Im sure this is another story to talk against the Royal Family plus get some free publicity for K K. for free. Do u really believe Kate would have the time to open Any Gifts sent to her then return them phwar !! i dont think so
