Kate Middleton Wears Reiss Blouse and Jigsaw Coat for West Sussex Minibus Visit

The Princess of Wales chose a Reiss blouse and a Jigsaw coat for a visit to West Sussex Minibus, a volunteer transport organization, where she met elderly passengers and learned about the group's work in the local community. She set aside her usual Edeline Lee and Emilia Wickstead pieces for the engagement, adopting a more relaxed approach to fall dressing. Although forest green has become her signature shade this season, the Princess built the outfit around a largely monochrome palette, accented by her favored Gianvito Rossi pumps and a Smythson bag in burgundy. The appearance came during a stretch of royal visits, premieres, and family moments, a schedule that has also included practical loafers and the all-weather Burberry trench she wore on a trip to Scotland the previous week. Her choices address a familiar seasonal problem: gauging how heavy outerwear should be so as to avoid both shivering outdoors and overheating during a commute. The look follows her recent preference for forest green and demonstrates how a single well-chosen coat can anchor a working wardrobe as fall begins.
