As well versed as the British Royal family are when it comes to their sartorial agendas, they all have a particular designer they constantly refer back to. When thinking of the Princess of Wales’ style, we might immediately think of Alexander Mcqueen, the Duchess of Sussex: Carolina Herrera, and the late Princess Diana: Catherine Walker.

And recent years would suggest that both Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie’s go-to is Claudie Pierlot. The 34-year-old sister of pregnant Eugenie and daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson rewore one of her CP coats on Monday and it’s the perfect piece to add to your transitional wardrobe this season.

She first wore the Claudie Pierlot coat in 2019

She headed out in Mayfair wearing the ‘Gangster check woven coat’ that she first sported in 2019 at Apple's The Elephant Queen screening.The forest green jacket boasts notch lapels and a flap overlay with a waist belt that creates the most flattering silhouette, whilst the electric blue and green checks turn the classic pattern up a notch.

Though the temperature isn’t currently rising as quickly as we’d like, Spring is inevitably on its way – hooray. Therefore a light, versatile coat to throw over your shoulders if the wind is still crisp, is an absolute necessity in your capsule wardrobe.

The chequered pattern is forever a royal favourite, but Princess Olympia of Greece, Princess Kate, Beatrice Borromeo and Princess Victoria of Sweden are amongst the royals who have made strong cases for checked patterns as a spring 2023 go-to.

Beatrice’s coat is currently sold out (naturally, as every item quickly does once a stylish royal is spotted in it), so here are 5 similar ones for you to up your transitional weather style game.
