The most stylish royal male has been revealed, according to a new study, and you'll never guess who has come out on top.


When it comes to fashion, the royals have the power to make or break a brand, with Kate Middleton's style being copied around the world - including from these 9 places where the Duchess shops

While the mini royals also have the same effect, with Prince George's style and Princess Charlotte's outfit selling out as soon as they're pictured in them.

Prince Charles, who did actually launch a conscious fashion collection with Net-a-Porter in 2020, is known for his dapper suits, but he's rarely been awarded for them. However, a new survey has voted the royal as the Londoner with the tenth most influential style.

British menswear retailer TM Lewin, analysed the names of actors, artists and royals born in London alongside keywords such as suit, style, wardrobe and outfit to determine who had the most influential style.  David Beckham came out on top with  21,800 average monthly searches, while the late David Bowie came second.

However, with 2,450 searches Prince Charles came in at 10th place, just behind Robert Pattison. While his son Prince Harry came in just a few places behind - at number 13 on the list, and his grandson Prince George came in at 15th place. 

A spokesperson for the study said, “Prince Charles and Prince George featuring in this list is a testament to the ongoing influence the royal family has on British life.

"People have always been highly interested in Charles’ style, as throughout the years he has shown off a variety of well put together outfits, his most popular of recent years being the striped, blue suit he wore to the 50th anniversary of his investiture as the Prince of Wales, which took place on March 5th, 2019, which caused a huge spike in searches for 'Prince Charles suit'."

Talking about Prince George's place on the list, and referencing the  adorable reason Prince George wore a suit to Wimbledon, they went on to say, "Meanwhile Prince George's most searched outfit in the last few years is the one he recently wore to Wimbledon’s in July 2022, showing up in a tailored navy suit with a matching striped tie."
