Royal household bids farewell to trusted aide Natasha Archer after 15 years of service
A quiet but significant change is underway at Kensington Palace as Natasha Archer, Princess Kate’s personal assistant and stylist, officially steps away from royal duties after 15 years. Known for her impeccable fashion sense and unwavering loyalty, Archer's departure marks the end of an era for the royal household.
Serving as Senior Private Executive Assistant to the Prince and Princess of Wales, Archer was instrumental in curating Catherine’s signature style—carefully selecting outfits that consistently captivated public attention while maintaining regal elegance.
With her next chapter unfolding, Archer is now launching her own private consultancy, taking her renowned fashion expertise beyond palace walls. Her departure has stirred a notable response from palace staff, who have expressed deep gratitude and admiration for her lasting contributions.
While Archer remained largely out of the spotlight, her influence on royal fashion has been undeniable. Industry insiders are finally giving her the recognition long due. Bethan Holt, fashion director at The Telegraph, noted Archer’s quiet dominance in the fashion world, describing her as “probably the most powerful woman in British fashion you've never heard of.”
As Catherine continues her recovery away from the public eye, Archer’s exit leaves a notable void in her inner circle—one that underscores just how influential behind-the-scenes figures can be.
