The Royal Family, often colour-coordinated, always dress fittingly for special occasions.

But after their recent tour of Canada, fashion fans were quick to notice that Prince George exclusively wears shorts.

Indeed, the three-year-old is rarely seen in trousers and, according to an etiquette expert, there's a very interesting reason behind it.

Etiquette expert and MailOnline columnist, William Hanson, claims that shorts on young boys are, in fact, a silent British class marker and trousers are deemed "suburban", which no self-respecting royal would want to be considered.

Whilst the children won over the world on their first royal tour, some social media users were quick to comment on their "post-war" look - suggesting that little Prince George and Princess Charlotte were dressed "for the 1950s" or a "19th century gothic novella".

One Twitter user commented: "Why are the royal children always dressed in such an old fashion style? Or do they only wear trainers and jeans when chilling at home?"

Another, named Jas, said: "They royal kids look like they were dressed in the 1950s..."

Jackie Kane added: "Why the hell are the royal offspring always dressed like something out of a 19th century gothic novella?"
