The Angela Marmont Centre (AMC) is a unique scientific hub located in the Natural History Museum, and is dedicated to the study of the UK’s natural world. The AMC helps public visitors identify their finds, provides vital training in wildlife identification, and leads research and citizen science projects that are helping to transform our understanding of over 80,000 species of wildlife 🦉🦋🦔 known to exist in the UK today. With populations of many UK species declining, and a significant proportion threatened with local extinction, the AMC brings together a host of individuals and organisations all dedicated to building understanding of the UK’s wildlife, so that it can be better protected for future generations. AMC staff work with colleagues from across the Natural History Museum to carry out a range of scientific research to study 🔬 how and why the UK’s wildlife is changing. This ranges from applying ground-breaking scientific techniques, including analysis of environmental DNA through to detecting and identify the miniscule insects and microorganisms that play an important role in healthy environments. At the AMC today The Duchess viewed some of the Museum’s specimens and saw DNA sequencing 🧬 live in action.

On her bottom half, the mum-of-three teamed the jumper with a pair of stylish, khaki culottes from Jigsaw.

The Relaxed Gathered Waist Culottes usually retail at £130, but are currently on sale for a more affordable £89.

At the moment, you can pick them up on the Jigsaw website in sizes 6 to 16, although if the history of the ‘Kate Effect’ is anything to go by, they may be set to sell out pronto.

If the Duchess’ approval wasn’t enough to send you swooning and decide her trousers were a must have seasonal staple, they also raked in some rave reviews online.

‘What a find. Go with just about everything.. Dress up, dress down, heels or boots, my go to thing wherever I am going,’ one happy customer wrote.

‘Very good fit. Ordered in a 10 as the back are elasticated. They also have a side zip so perfect fit and very comfortable,’ chipped in another.

While a third simply gushed, ‘Gorgeous fabric and great fit.’
