How Much is it All Worth?! 2022

NOTE: This is a constantly updating post and subject to change as pieces are identified.

As is becoming our annual tradition, Heaven and I have sat down with our notes, spreadsheets, and calculators to bring you a comprehensive look at the value of the new clothing of 19 different royal ladies from around the world. We have done this since 2017 at UFO No More in an effort to provide a more comprehensive look into the statistics side of things that come with Royal Fashion Watching.

When we calculate costs we break down the numbers into 3 categories:

  1. Pieces that remain UFO (Unidentified Fashion Objects)

  2. Pieces that are identified and costs can be found

  3. Pieces where the designer is known but the design is custom or a price us unknown

In very few instances, we will estimate a price of an article of clothing. This occurs when the piece is similar to a “base model” being sold and there are minor details changed (color, neckline, slits, etc).

Totals in Euros by Sarah Williams

Now onto the data! In total, these 19 royal ladies debuted clothing retailing over 2,364,416.75 € ($ 2,536,191.63 USD) during 2022 on clothing and accessories. This 2,364,416.75 € ($ 2,536,191.63 USD) takes into account the 1,359 pieces which were identified with costs or had costs estimated. Excluded from this tally were 445 pieces where the pieces remain UFO or are custom pieces. This year we saw 1,804 new pieces debuted and the amazing network of royal watchers managed to identify 88% of those new pieces.

We acknowledge that some of these tallies could be higher because a royal has more pieces identified than others - which is why we include the average price-per-piece graphic for you below. These numbers are calculated by dividing the cost of pieces we have prices for by the number of pieces we have prices for (Example: Even though Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden had 147 new pieces, we divided her total amount by 110 because that was how many pieces we had prices for). This gives us a better idea of her spending habits and trends.

**At face value our calculations are what the royal’s clothes are worth, and in theory, what they would cost for you or I to buy. However, we are not saying that these calculations are what the royals ladies specifically spent, as we cannot verify that. We fully recognize that royals may receive discounts, shop sales, or be gifted some of these pieces. However, in order to stay objective, we made the decision to only use the full retail value of the pieces so that we do not show bias. These numbers should be viewed as the retail cost of their new pieces, rather than the exact number they personally spent.**
