Kensington Palace doesn't make many comments about Princess Kate's fashion, but the royal community has been buzzing this month after a palace spokesperson said Kate wanted the public to focus on her work, and not her wardrobe. A recent visit to the National Portrait Gallery—during which the princess wore neutral suit separates—seemed to emphasize that statement, and on Tuesday, Feb. 11, the royal visited a British prison in the same coat she wore a month ago.
The Princess of Wales headed to HMP Styal prison in Wilmslow, England to learn more about its mother and baby unit, and for the occasion she brought back the burgundy plaid Blazé Milano coat she debuted for her first public engagement of 2025. The bespoke piece looked ideal for bundling up on a chilly, rainy day as she ducked under an umbrella outside the prison.
