Duchess of Cambridge’s midas touch continues as Hobbs coat sells out

Until the Duchess of Cambridge stepped out in Liverpool earlier today, her brown Celeste coat by Hobbs had been languishing upon a virtual sale rail on the retailer's website.

Rumoured to have been snapped up by Kate for £369 back in September, the chestnut-hued style from the label's autumn/winter 2011 collection had since been slashed to less than half its original price - £182 - to make way for a throng of spring stock.
