Drop everything you’re doing, because Kate Middleton’s favorite handbag, The Nano Montreal (~~$450~~; $360), is currently on sale for 20 percent off. I’m no stranger to Kate Middleton’s handbag collection, and this particular piece from London brand DeMellier is one the Princess of Wales repeatedly wears. Best of all, the brand just launched its annual Black Friday sale, where customers can get a 20 percent discount on purses and accessories (plus free shipping!) when you use the promo code BF20 at checkout. Here’s everything you need to know about the royal-approved bag of the season.

Included in the sale is Princess Catherine’s go-to purse, The Nano Montreal (~~$450~~; $360). The bag is versatile because it can be worn as a crossbody or carried as a handbag. It’s small enough to use during a night out on the town, but it’s also roomy enough to fit all your essentials, including your phone, keys and lipstick. There’s also an option to add monogramming for a little personalization that’d make a thoughtful gift.

The royal has the bag in Deep Toffee Smooth, but it also comes in three other colors: Black Smooth, Off-White Smooth and Taupe Smooth.

DeMellier

The Princess of Wales has worn her DeMellier (formally Milli Millu) bag on multiple occasions. She first debuted the purse back in 2021 when she celebrated the release of the Hold Still book. A few months later, she used it again when she attended an event for Forward Trust. Then in 2022, she wore it during an official visit to Scarborough.

The Nano Montreal in Deep Toffee Smooth may be the one DeMellier bag that Princess Catherine adores, but I’ve recently seen The Midi New York style ($595; $476) take off in popularity on social media for its architectural silhouette and luxe finish. Who doesn’t love a brown suede bag? I bet Middleton would approve.
