Lady Amelia Windsor may only be in her early 20s, but the granddaughter of the Duke and
Duchess of Kent has already made quite the name for herself.
Whether through her modeling gigs or her personal Instagram feed, she's captivating fans around
the globe.
Here's everything you need to know about the hip royal who is 36th in line to the throne.
Cover girl
British society magazine Tatler made headlines in 2016 when it featured a 20-year-old Windsor
on its cover.
It wasn't the tabloid's choice of model that raised eyebrows, however - it was the fact
that the young beauty stunned in a daring dress with a plunging neckline.
In addition to her choice of attire, the accompanying headline also made news, as Windsor was dubbed
"the most beautiful member of the royal family."
Charity support
Before enrolling in university, Windsor took a gap year in 2014 and made the most of it
by working with Veterans Aid, a UK-based charity.
She explained:
"The team supports veterans struggling with all kinds of issues.
Whether it's finding accommodation, dealing with an addiction or something simple like
buying food, clothing or an Oyster card.
I've never seen so much hard work and passion from so dedicated a group of people.
I will never forget my time working there."
And that's not the only cause that's close to her heart.
In November 2017, she revealed her plans to raise money for War Child in 2018 by running
a half marathon in support of the charity.
Higher education
Proving that she's more than just a pretty face, Windsor attended and graduated from
the University of Edinburgh with a degree in French and Italian after completing an
entire year studying abroad.
First she did a semester in Paris, then one in Rome, which afforded her the opportunity
to thoroughly study both countries' native languages while pursuing fashion internships
in two of the world's most stylish cities.
She gushed in 2016:
"It was one of the best experiences I've ever had.
To see how much goes into making a fashion business is quite exciting."
Fashion success
In addition to her internships, Windsor has also made a name for herself in the fashion
world as a model.
She walked in Dolce & Gabbana's Fall 2017 Ready-to-Wear show during Milan Fashion Week.
She was also shot posing in an Italian supermarket, alongside fellow royal Princess Olympia of
Greece, for D&G's Fall 2017 campaign.
Following her breakthrough appearance on the Dolce & Gabbana catwalk, Windsor has shown
no signs of slowing down.
She has even starred in a short film for footwear designer Penelope Chilvers, who revealed,
"I've known her since she was little girl and we have become good friends.
I invited her to join us at El Rocio because I knew she would genuinely enjoy the experience."
But while she seems to be dedicated to all things fashion, Windsor doesn't see a career
in modeling to be her only future.
The royal confessed to Vogue in 2017
"I would love to make a contribution to any aspect behind the creative process.
On my year abroad, I want to really further my understanding of every aspect of a fashion
house, from the making of the fabrics to the production of a catwalk show."
Global brand
In its ongoing coverage of Windsor, the Daily Mail spoke to "brand and industry experts"
who predicted that the heiress could stand to make a cool "£1 million a year through
brand collaborations alone."
Meanwhile, stylist Rochelle White predicted that Windsor has what it takes, saying:
"Lady Amelia has the makings to build herself up to be, dare I say, a global brand.
She has already worked with Dolce & Gabbana, she is a known face at fashion parties and
with the industry as well as a strong social media following."
The Daily Mail also spoke to Mischa Joslin, a fashion PR manager, who added that Windsor
is particularly lucky because she doesn't have to stick to the strict wardrobe rules
imposed on the royal ladies closer to the throne.
Joslin explained:
"[Windsor] can leverage the royal connection as much as she needs to, without feeling the
wrath of the palace's PR team."
Instagram love
With over 54,000 followers and counting as of June 2018, Windsor regularly turns to Instagram
to post snaps from her daily adventures and travels.
Windsor explained to Vogue why she loves Instagram so much, saying:
"It allows anyone to be creative and imaginative.
I also love that we can share all the beautiful and meaningful things we see and hear in the
world.
I find it so inspiring and uplifting."
Travel bug
Vogue notes that Windsor is quite the traveler, taking solo trips all round the world to places
like Morocco.
Opening up about her future travel plans, she gushed:
"I'm also keen to go to Jamaica and visit Goldeneye where Ian Fleming wrote James Bond,
and Strawberry Hill."
Windsor also regularly posts photos from her trips to Instagram, giving followers major
wanderlust with snaps from France, New York, and Rome, to name a few.
Speaking with the Telegraph, Windsor's longtime friend, footwear designer Penelope Chilvers,
revealed:
"Amelia takes an international approach to travel, immersing herself in the local culture.
Her inquisitiveness and appreciation of other cultures and languages is something I love
about her."
The finer things
In addition to photos from her many travels, Windsor's Insta feed is full of snaps showing
off her deep love of art and appreciation for a myriad of classic painters.
She's visited some of the most famous art museums in Europe, and always finds something
unique to say about her experiences.
And it's not just art that attracts the attention of this young royal.
She also has an interest in literature and poetry.
While speaking with Vogue in 2017, Windsor opened up about her bedtime essentials, revealing
that certain books have a coveted spot on her bedside table, such as a poetry book suggested
to her by her grandmother called Other Men's Flowers.
Windsor also revealed that she turns to audiobooks to help her relax and fall asleep, declaring:
"It's so important to read a book before bed."
