However, while the item was previously available in pink, it is now only available in black and blue.The collection's $245 "Paris Jacket" from Jigsaw is also still available online."The capsule collection will be called The Smart Set and consists of the work wear essentials often needed to attend interviews and enter into the workplace: a perfect white shirt, an elegant blazer, well cut trousers, a dress that flatters everyone and the perfect tote," a spokesperson for the collection said at the time of release.The spokesperson added that for every item purchased, another will be donated to Smart Works, a charity that provides unemployed women with the essentials required to get back into the workplace.It is unclear whether sales from the items are still going towards Smart Works. While the product descriptions previously advertised them as being part of the collection, they no longer do.Smart Works and Buckingham Palace did not reply to Insider's request for comment.Insider also contacted Jigsaw and Marks and Spencer, both of which did not respond when asked about the proceeds of the collection.However, on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's official website Markle is still listed as patron of Smart Works, despite giving up her royal duties earlier this year.This could indicate that the former royal may plan to continue her work with the charity as a private citizen.Misha Nonoo, who designed the Smart Set shirt for the collection, previously told Insider how the duchess' main priority was to be size-inclusive."It was a priority from the outset. As size-inclusive as we had tried to be up until this point, this definitely pushed us to go even further and we're really excited about that," she said."I think people who aren't in the fashion world might not be so well aware that lots of regular brands, high street brands don't necessarily go up to size 22, 24," she added.Read more:Meghan Markle's close friend Misha Nonoo told us why the criticism she faces is 'really unjust'Women with 3 different clothing sizes ordered Meghan Markle's $32 dress to see if it really made us feel like 'Wonder Woman'Meghan Markle and Prince Harry officially have more Instagram followers than Prince William and Kate MiddletonJoin the conversation about this storyNOW WATCH: Most maps of Louisiana aren't entirely right.
