Prince Harry replaced his collection of Hermes ties with a £69 British accessory as the Duke of Sussex stepped out in London this evening.
The father-of-two attended the annual WellChild Awards earlier today – an organisation of which he is a patron.
The event celebrates the achievements and resilience of seriously ill children and their families.
For the occasion, Harry traded his usual Hermès silk tie selection for a baby blue-toned accessory.

The tie was adorned with tiny shark and submarine motifs.
The accessory is from British-founded tie menswear brand Reef Knots and currently retails for £69.
Its description reads: “Take a bite out of our shark and submarine silk tie. Featuring a snappy shark and submarine print on the blade and a subtle change on the tail.
“A smart but characterful design. The perfect tie for all occasions including the office, a set of wedding ties, or a fantastic men’s gift.”

He paired the tie with a sleek dark navy blue suit, a crisp white shirt and a stack of colourful bracelets.
Last year, the Duke of Sussex attended the WellChild Awards in London wearing a much more expensive Hermès tie.
The £215 product is no longer available for royal fans to purchase.
Prince Harry opted against staying at a royal residence in London for his trip, having previously raised concerns about his security when coming and going from such high-profile locations.
