TORONTO: Canadian designer Line the Label shot to prominence on Monday after US actress Meghan Markle wore a coat from the brand in her first public appearance after her engagement to Britain’s Prince Harry.
Markle appeared in the sunken garden at Kensington Palace on Monday in the late November chill, donning the C$799 ($627.11) white wrap coat with oversized collars and cinched at the waist with a knotted belt.
The surge in interest in the coat caused the style to quickly sell out and crashed the Toronto-based knitwear label’s website in some parts of the world, including in London.The company is taking reorders on the coat, an external spokeswoman said by email.
Line has since named the coat “Meghan,” company President and co-founder John Muscat said in a statement, adding it was one of her favourite pieces from the fashion label.
