Unlike her fitted Ralph Lauren blazer, Kate’s trousers weren’t IDed. Still, I love how surprising it was to see her herringbone jacket paired with such an unexpected pant color: forest green.
In recent years, Kate has steadily integrated a clear work uniform into her wardrobe, which she busts out for royal engagements. A blouse, a blazer and a pair of fitted pants has become her go-to combo, an evolution from her earlier days as a working royal where a range of A-line dresses reigned supreme. Suits are also something she reaches for more regularly, but they skew a bit more formal. At the Natural History Museum last week, her attire felt spot-on for an occasion that was professional (she is royal patron of the museum) but also included children. (It poured, too, but that’s another story.)
