The Italian label has named a coat worn by the Duchess of Cambridge the 'Kate'

Kate Middleton's style icon status has never been in doubt, but now the Duchess of Cambridge can add another fashion accolade to her growing list after a designer item was named after her.

Italian label Max Mara has announced that it is re-releasing a beige cashmere coat, worn by Kate during a visit to Cambridgeshire in November 2012, and has renamed it 'Kate' in her honour.

The high-collared and belted design is priced at £875 and is currently available on the House of Fraser website in several sizes. The Duchess was pictured wearing the style with a printed dress, brown tights and ankle boots as she greeted a crowd of well-wishers during a royal tour of the English county – just one week before announcing her first pregnancy.
