Kate Middleton's 'flattering' high-street outfit reduced as she makes fashion faux-pas at King's Coronation

Today the world watched on as Charles was crowned as King in a lavish Coronation ceremony. As with any grand event, all eyes have been on the outfits worn by the Royal Family and celebrity friends in attendance.

But Kate Middleton made an unfortunate fashion faux-pas when she was forced to hitch up her long white Alexander McQueen Coronation dress to avoid it getting drenched in rain puddles. It's a far cry from her usual practical high-street style, which is adored by many.

Last month she visited the Baby Bank in Windsor to hear about its crucial works supporting families in need. The Princess of Wales donned a pair of flattering black cigarette trousers, and completed the look with an afforable neutral 'power blazer'.

Now it's been reduced for the Coronation weekend. The blazer was actually from one of Kate's favourite high-street stores - Reiss.

She could be seen in the Larsson Double Breasted Twill Blazer from high-street retailer Reiss. The Reiss blazer is available in four different colours on the Reiss website. It comes in Camel, Light Camel, Navy and White.

The price of each blazer is dependent on which colour you opt for. Reiss' Double Breasted Twill Blazer's flattering silhouette features wide peak lapels and button fastenings with front pockets for added functionality.

Reiss has given the Manchester Evening News a discount code for readers to celebrate the King's Coronation - meaning you can get Kate's blazer, or anything else on the Reiss website for significantly less than usual. Anybody who uses the code WELCOME10 at checkout will get 10% off their first order. This can’t be used on sale items.

We recommend pairing the Reiss Blazer with Reiss' Hailey Tapered Trousers in Black, which cost less than £100, for a strong power look you can wear to work and out on the town. Finish with Reiss' £158 Evan Chain Detail Loafers - a classic investment piece you can wear all year round - for a chic and practical finish.

Kate Middleton's Larsson Double Breasted Twill Blazer, and all other full price items on the Reiss website, are 10% off for the King's Coronation weekend when you use code WELCOME10.
