Sophie Countess of Wessex attend the press day for the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show 2017 at Hampton Court, London. The RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show is the largest flower show in the world. The Countess of Wessex wore a wave textured stripe dress by SUZANNAH. |
Looks like a dress to me not a skirt and top. She looks lovely as unusual.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a heavy one for July. It's almost wintry. I wonder sometimes why she keeps favouring these heavy, broad-skirted dresses. She seems fit, toned (so the rationale of wearing them to contain any flubberry mishaps doesn't apply).
ReplyDeleteShe looks nice, elegant, but to me she's lost underneath the dress.
Agree. She seems to be weighted down in this dress. And there is no color; it is a flower show!
DeleteI agree, this dress looks so thick and too much around the neck for a summer dress. At Ascot one day she wore a similar heavy dress in green and I recall it was a very hot day. Maybe she just feels a little unsure of her outfits yet. They are very ordinary. She is very pretty but seems hesitant in her role. Give her some time in the job that Queen Elizabeth has asked the rest of the 'firm' to take over.
DeleteShe actually wore this dress at Ascot a few days ago. I believe it was ladies day.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a bit matronly but I think a less blah hairstyle would have revved up the look.
ReplyDeleteStill my favorite British royal. In French: 'elle est bien dans sa peau'. At least she's not wearing a horror like the so-called Greeks at their costume/masquerade party.
ReplyDeleteI think she looks fantastic in this. The full skirt of the dress makes it a bit more fun. The color is simple, understated. I imagine less color on yourself is better when surrounded by colorful flowers! I like the original neckline better, though.
