Catherine, Princess of Wales turns 44 on January 9. On Thursday January 8, she joined her husband, Prince William at an engagement at Charing Cross Hospital in London. The couple discussed the pressures healthcare staff were under during the winter virus season and surprised them on their tea/coffee break.
The Prince of Wales was due to visit the Charing Cross Hospital in London on a solo engagement, but in a last-minute change, he was joined by his wife, Catherine, Princess of Wales.
For the occasion, Catherine, Princess of Wales recycled a Roland Mouret burgundy trouser suit. Trouser suits have been a staple in the Princess of Wales’s wardrobe for some time and it seems that she is set to continue wearing them in 2026.
For the engagement at Charity Cross Hospital, the Princess of Wales also wore Trinity earrings by Cartier and the eagle-eyed fashionistas, would have spotted that she was wearing a DeMellier London Hudson small bag in Mocha Suede.
Mireia Llusia-Lindh is the founder of DeMellier and according to the About section on the website, she started the company as “I have always been a perfectionist and never liked no as an answer, even if it has often meant taking the hardest route, so I embarked on a mission to create handbags with no compromises.
“They had to be modern and of the highest quality, ethically and sustainably made but also attainable and socially conscious, DeMellier was born.”
The Small Hudson bag from DeMellier retails at £415.
