The Princess of Wales delivered a masterclass in sartorial diplomacy, debuting a coat by British-Nigerian designer Tolu Coker.
The design is the Double-Breasted Blazer Frock Coat (£1,425). This made-to-order garment is defined by its longline silhouette, featuring a sculpted waist with back-tie detailing, structured shoulders, and a refined double-breasted front. Expertly crafted from grey 100% British wool, the design is elevated by a contrasting white double lapel and crisp stretch-cotton collar, lending a touch of modern distinction to a timeless tailored classic.
Complementing the coatdress was a new headpiece by Jane Taylor - the milliner’s 'Persephone' Hat in Grey Felt with Satin and Organza Bow.
The Princess carried her Mulberry Small Amberley Crossbody Bag in Black Croc.
On her feet were her grey-toned Hugo Boss Embossed Leather Pumps.
Kate completed the look with Princess Diana’s Collingwood pearl earrings.

I love her style so much and absolutely adore when she chooses to wear designers with a connection to the nations that they are hosting or visiting!

This double breasted coat looks beautiful. Its beautifully tailored, the white trim I find attractive, the white bow of the hat, blending with the trim of the coat, nice touch. The corset detail at the back, very distinctive, I like this its unusual. This coat 100% wool, would be very warm, welcome addition. The grey shoes look good, the black bag I like its a good contrasting color. The pearl earrings look divine, beautiful earrings. Lovely presentation by the Princess.
