Since the start of the school year, Kate Middleton has only worn pantsuits. And this September 27, 2023, while she is traveling in Kent, the Princess of Wales has revealed a new sober and chic look. She wore black pants, an ecru top, flat shoes (Boden), and a red tweed jacket (Zara). A fan of the Spanish brand, Prince William’s wife recycled this piece, which she already had in her wardrobe, and which was worn only a few days ago by a certain Brigitte Macron, in a luxury version.
Version 3/4 of Brigitte Macron
The first lady of France, who has a weakness for the creations of Nicolas Ghesquière, at Louis Vuitton, exceptionally wore a 3/4 red tweed jacket signed Chanel, on September 21, 2023. And this outfit was no coincidence. That day, Brigitte Macron received Queen Consort Camilla, at the BNF, to jointly launch a literary prize. They then went through Seine-Saint-Denis, to visit the facilities for the 2024 Olympic Games, and enjoy an unusual game of ping-pong. Finally, they visited the Galerie du 19M together, where the Chanel brand craft houses are located.
Camilla Parker Bowles discovered how French tweed from the 2C brand is made. Typical of the wardrobe of British landowners, this woolen fabric originally came from Scotland and Ireland. In France, it was Gabrielle Chanel (known as Coco) who made it her trademark, for her jackets (particularly popular with ladies, such as Simone Veil, in particular, but also Bernadette Chirac, and Jackie Kennedy).
You won’t find Kate Middleton’s anymore
This September 27, far from haute couture and crafts, it is a double-breasted version, at 59.95 euros, and released in 2022, that Kate Middleton wore.
