Kate Middleton's latest look comprises of a seasonal power player - the polo neck - and an autumn essential that we've noticed is all over the shops this October. It is, drumroll please, the quilted gilet. And not just any quilted gilet, but Ganni's. That's right, Kate Middleton is officially part of the #gannigirls gang.

Middleton wore the sleeveless jacket to visit Glasgow's Alexandra Park Sports Hub, the first stop on her visit as part of COP26, and it brought to mind her grandmother-in-law's favourite off-duty outerwear. Instead of a silk scarf knotted underneath her chin, however, Middleton styled hers with black skinny jeans and her much-loved lace-up boots from See by Chloé.
