Princess Kate visited Portsmouth in 2015 sporting a white-coloured coat from Max Mara Studio. The double-breasted and belted coat was made from 100% wool. On the day that Meghan was officially announced as the wife-to-be of Prince Harry, she wore a sleek white wrap coat for her engagement photo call with Prince Harry which featured a similar silhouette. The design was from a Canadian brand – which was a thoughtful tribute to the place she called home when she filmed Suits.
