The Earl and Countess of Wessex are currently making a three-day visit to Gibraltar from June 7 to 9 on behalf of Queen Elizabeth to mark The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. On the second day of their visit, the Earl and Countess visited the Moorish Castle Estate, where they met with local residents. Afterwards, The Countess visited the mental health charity The Clubhouse to see first-hand how the charity provides support for the local community.
The Earl and Countess then attended a lunch at Governor’s residence. After the lunch, the Earl and Countess met with crowds on John Mackintosh Square as they walked down Main Street. Afterwards, the Countess was at the Special Olympics, where she took part in a series of sports activities with the athletes.
Thereafter, the Countess met with girl guides and scouts at Gibraltar’s Scouts Retreat Centre. The Countess changed at least three clothes during the day, switching from her initial shirt dress to a floral number and later a sleeveless dress.
Of the three blues, I love the Suzannah dress (2nd one) the best. It is soft, delicate and feminine, and flatters Sophie beautifully. The third dress would be my next fav, mainly because of the bold shirt style collar and neckline, and the first dress my least favourite as there is just too much skirt volume.
ReplyDeleteHer hair worn up looks good in all three looks and Sophie wears blue very well.

I love her silk tea dress! They both look so relaxed and happy on this trip.
ReplyDeleteTrès rafraîchissante la robe en soie imprimée dont le décolleté en V met en valeur sa silhouette même si comme d'habitude, elle est un peu trop longue ; avec les chaussures à talons, c'est élégant !
ReplyDeleteEvery single dress is rather forgettable, and appropriate, all of them a tad too long. My biggest issue is why won’t she wear a good brassiere? She is a young woman with a healthy figure, but in some of these pictures ( specially the ones with the high belt) her bust line spoils the dress.

I love suzannah dress the most . All three dresses are nice .
ReplyDeleteAll three dresses are too long and therefore not very elegant. The sleeveless blue dress with the thin belt, the waistline is too high.
ReplyDeleteThey are both lovely people
ReplyDeleteNice outfits on this travel to the Rock of Gibraltar.
ReplyDeleteThese dresses look great on Sophie. They suit the occasion. I love Edward's casual attire. This looked to be a fabulous trip. This royal couple continue to impress. I admire them both very much. Quietly getting on with the job. Well done.
ReplyDeleteCherry totally agree with you.
ReplyDeleteThere is a few Royal ladies that need a good bra, it spoils their outfits more than they realise. It makes them even look slimmer if they only had the correct bra on and hoisted the straps up. Where are the ladies in waiting or dressers, are they too afraid to tell them. However she does look lovely in her blues, she is such a sweetheart.
