The Princess of Wales has plenty of beautiful designer bags to her name - but her smooth toffee DeMellier handbag that she's worn with some seriously powerful red outfits is a classic.

Princess Catherine's Nano Montreal handbag by British brand DeMellier is one of her go-tos when she needs a classic accessory.
Kate has been seen carrying the piece in the elegant toffee colour on various occasions and seems to use it as one of her trusty picks for teaming with red.
In other royal news, we love Kate Middleton's fresh white trench coat and knee-high boots combo in these unearthed photos from before she married William.

Kate Middleton's dresses, her impressive collection of high heels and her extensive jewellery collection have been the envy of royal fashion fans for years - and her designer bag collection is no different.

From high end pieces like her beloved white Mulberry and red Mulberry bags to her timeless black Aspinal of London Mayfair Midi and her Emmy London clutch that she has in 12 colours to suit every look, there's a wide array of designers and styles in the bag section of Kate's wardrobe.

Her DeMellier Nano Montreal handbag is another one sure to leave handbag fanatics all heart-eyed - and we love how well she's paired it with striking red looks over the years.

Catherine stepped out with the Nano Montreal in Deep Toffee Smooth for a London event led by the Forward Trust in 2021, looking incredible in a coordinated red pleated skirt and turtleneck.

The future Queen Consort was a vision in scarlet, teaming the Ralph Lauren cashmere jumper with the Christopher Kane Red Pleated Maxi Skirt and a pair of Ralph Lauren Celia heels and accessorised perfectly with the DeMellier.

Catherine also opted for the caramel-toned mini bag for a visit to the The National Portrait Gallery in 2021, to mark the launch of her Hold Still book launch.

This time she wore a statement red coat dress by Eponine London along with the same Celia heels by Ralph Lauren.

The DeMellier Nano Montreal is priced at £330 and is available in a range of 13 colourways, from classic black and neutral white to spritely pink and eye-catching emerald.

There's a top handle as well as a detachable crossbody strap, making it customisable to the vibe of any outfit and is made from soft smooth leather with a black cotton-lined interior.

Inside you'll find a spacious compartment with a zipped section, perfect for holding all the handbag essentials you need. Phone, card, lipstick and keys? Check.

And make it even more special with option of free monogramming.
