Despite being an advocate for sustainable fashion, the Princess of Wales faced criticism from some social media users who noted that she opted for a new jacket instead of restyling an old, similar one. An Instagram page, @royalfashionpolice, even shared details of Kate’s outfit and accessories, including their prices.
While one fan expressed disappointment, stating, "New new new! I swear she has a similar jacket. Why buy another one?" another praised the jacket's beauty but wished for a re-wear, saying, "Love this jacket. I do wish she would’ve done a re-wear here, but this jacket is so beautiful!"
In response to the criticism, a loyal supporter defended Kate, highlighting the economic impact of her fashion choices: "People don’t realize the impact it has when she buys something new. It’s not just a random rich girl spending money. Her fashion choices literally mean billions to the UK economy."
Despite the controversy, Princess Kate is all set to host the special Carol Service at Westminster Abbey on December 8. This year's event is aligned with the Shaping Us programme, her initiative emphasizing the significance of early childhood.
