In April 2019, reflecting the growing demand for women’s lounge wear, Kate delivered her active wear range and described the collection as “functional, stylish, lasts well and doesn’t cost a fortune”. 10% of every sale from the active wear collection goes to the charity Breast Cancer Care. A charity close to Kate’s heart as she faced her own personal struggle with breast cancer over four years ago.
