Not everybody attains or strives to become a style icon, consciously or subconsciously.

And I think that not changing your look can also mean that Kate (or whomever) is certain of her style, comfortable with how she looks and is secure in the appearance she projects to others.

Many fashion icons throughout history have maintained a consistent style and were fashion icons because of it: Jackie Kennedy maintained a very classic and refined look as a young bride, then as the president's wife, then as a single mom, then through her wedding to Aristotle Onassis and in her later years. She didn't experiement radically and even her hair stayed mostly the same yet she is highly regarded for her sense of style. The same goes for Audrey Hepburn whose style remained consistent off screen.
