Kate Middleton Wore 2022’s New Blazer Trend

Two things Kate Middleton seems to love are blazers and Zara. (Same, Kate, same.) She wears both often. So I can’t say I was surprised to see her step out in a Zara blazer for a visit to a charitable organisation in London today. Middleton wore Zara’s Inverted Lapel Long Blazer, which is a mere £50. (Her white version is almost sold out, but it’s still available in a few other colours, so act fast.) She kept the rest of her look simple, opting for wide-leg trousers, a T-shirt, and court shoes.

Sure, it’s always significant when Middleton wears affordable brands such as Zara, but my point in covering this look is the blazer trend she wore. We declared collarless blazers the blazer trend of 2022 way back in December, and lo and behold, we have Kate Middleton wearing one a few months later. 

Lapel-less blazers were plentiful on the S/S 22 runways, so it’s easy to see why Zara would embrace the polished trend (and why Middleton would be on board). Scroll to see how she styled hers and shop it (and other options) before it’s sold out.
