A timeless classic

Long coats give a chic touch to any outfit, elevating even the most simple of looks. A camel overcoat is versatile and classic, allowing for an endless number of combinations, whether with jeans or dresses, so it’s always a good piece to have in your closet. Kate’s camel coat, double breasted and hitting a mid-calf, is by Massimo Dutti. The length is perfect to show off her high heeled boots.
