In June 2016, the Duchess of Cambridge (often still called Kate Middleton) debuted a new coat during a visit to the Thiepval Memorial in France. It was a grey zigzag print coat by Italian label Missoni.
It was sold as the ‘Metallic Crochet-Knit Coat’ at The Outnet and the ‘Long Snake Stich Coat’ at Nordstrom.
Here’s how Nordstrom describe the piece –
“Silver metallic threads shimmer within the monochromatic hues defining a textured A-line coat that’s visually shaped with an angled zigzag pattern.”
