| On September 17, 2018, Sophie, Countess of Wessex visited Daniel Department Store in Windsor, England. The Countess took a tour of the lingerie department of Daniel of Windsor, which has traded in the town, close to the castle, for 100 years. Daniel has a long history with the royal family and was awarded with a Royal Warrant from the Queen as a supplier of gifts to the royal household. (Countess of Wessex wore a floral-print dress by Suzannah, which she had worn before.) |
Suzannah Marigold Tea Dress
I like her hair. It looks more youthful than when she wears it up. Dress looks great too.
ReplyDeleteThis dress makes makes the Css look very young . This dress fits her very well, she is a pretty Lady.
ReplyDeleteTired of floral dresses but this one looks very pretty - lovely print and flattering design 🌸🌸🌸
ReplyDeleteThis look is really good for Sophie. Her hair worn down is very flattering, it softens her features and is very feminine. The length is good and it’s healthy. The dress is pretty and I much prefer these quarter length sleeves to the shorter ones she often wears. And the clutch is big enough to carry more than a folded tissue!
ReplyDeleteI love this dress. It looks beautiful on Sophie
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and cheerful dress that suits her shape perfectly.
ReplyDeleteI like de dress, the shoes, everything!
ReplyDeleteNice look.

What a beautiful dress! Sophie looks amazing!
ReplyDeletewow...the look suits her very well...love the dress and her open hair...
ReplyDeleteWhen reading the comments, I was wondering whether they would be the same if Prss Victoria were weaaring it, any bet on that?
ReplyDeleteAgree, although Viktoria is 12 years younger. Princess Stephanie of Luxembourg also gets negative comments, all the time.
DeleteIf Victoria wore her hair down and her floral dresses were knee-length and not so full, I would be the first to complement her look. Sophie (like Victoria) looks younger with her hair down and better when her clothes flatter her figure and do not overwhelm it.
DeleteIt would be great if Princess Victoria wore this kind of flattering dresses.
DeleteInstead Victoria's dresses are frilly, midi length, high neck, often look too big for her or their style make her look heavier. Add her severe flat hairstyle. Countess of Wessex is older than Victoria but she looks/dresses more youthful.
Have we seen Victoria wearing dress that is flattering, has unique charm and versatility? Also Victoria's flat and tight hairstyles ruin most of her looks for me.
DeleteI've stopped commenting on Victoria's style because I know there's people who like her style (when I have nothing positive/good to say, I better say nothing).
From your comment I assume you do not like this Suzannah Marigold tea dress?
I do like the Suzannah floral dress (as far as I still like floral dresses) but honestly the dress worn by Victoria on 13/09 here below (Swedish institute event) suits her just as well as the one we are discussing today. Basically I like rather short dresses but i admit that sometimes a few centimeters longer improve the general look because better balanced.
DeleteRemains the hair style yes, but Victoria seems to stick to a hairstyle which allows her to be ok at any time without too much time spent on it, even if it is not the most flattering one. We cannot blame her for that, she can decide for herself. She knows she is appreciated in her country with her style.
Many in her country do appreciate her. But also wish, from a fashion perspective, that her hairstyle would reflect her age. "Bun" hair is more severe and older looking. There is no blame, just opinions that we have.
DeleteFor the Swedish institute event you referred she wore another one of those old-fashioned and matronly dresses. It looked especially bad when teamed with her usual flatly slicked back hair. Her hair-style requires diferent style of clothes!
DeleteShorter sleeves and knee length, different neckline could have saved it but with that busy print this style was too much. She already own dozens of this kind of dresses why add another one? Sorry not fan.
Pretty frock, Sophie looks lovely with her hair worn down.
ReplyDeletereally pretty look :-)
ReplyDeleteEste vestido la favorece al igual que la manga francesa,muy bien el cabello
ReplyDeleteWonderful outfit !
ReplyDeleteSophie is effortlessly Royal these days
ReplyDeleteGreat job Sophie! Love the hair down, and she always looks so much more youthful in a shorter dress,
ReplyDeleteGreat look for Sophie. But someone please releave us from the dictatorship of floral dresses. Too many! Regardless of length, cut, fabric, colour.... way too many. I will even take animal prints. So long as it doesn’t become another obsession.
ReplyDeleteI like the hair style, but sort of wish she had kept her individuality. Not she has the same cut as 90% of all women.
Yes, her hair is nice but like so many others. I wish she would cut and style her hair the way she did when she married Edward. It was so young and fresh looking.
