Erdem White Volume Midi Skirt
I like very much, I just wish she didnt have safety straps on her shoes
ReplyDeleteAt least her shoes are better than the ones on the model. :-/ I don't even know how you'd keep those clean! Yuck!
DeleteIt is an ankle strap, not a 'safety strap'. It is very common for this style of espadrilles. The other common option is ankle ties.
Deletemy first thought was: this is the (re-enacted) photo of his parents (they were stationed in Malta for the first years of their marriage - see here: https://www.standard.co.uk/lifestyle/queen-love-malta-prince-philip-travel-b1024569.html )
ReplyDeleteThank you for the link. I enjoyed the article.
Deletethe late Queen Elizabeth was much loved in Malta and much of the commonwealth
DeleteThis is a lovely outfit. The neckline of the blouse is particularly nice.

I agree! Very elegant combination, much above the model where the pattern is overwhelming (and the shoes very strange...!)
DeleteThis is a lovely, pretty ensemble. I love the color of her bag, picking up the same color of her skirt, clever addition. Her hair looks fabulous, love it up style. The subtle pieces of jewellery are a nice choice.
ReplyDeleteThe amount of fabric gathered into the skirt's waistband does her figure no favours. Her bag handle is quirky!
ReplyDeletei like your comment; eye to detail, what is obvious but everyone keeps to sweet neutral comments
DeleteWhat a pretty skirt and the blouse and shoes are great choices.
ReplyDeleteQuietly and graciously carrying out duties, continuing on with everything the Queen has built all her life. Pure respect and love for the Queen of her country and her mother in law, that is.
ReplyDeleteFashion wise, although she may not be the most "fashionable" kind with the latest style and all - her calm peaceful and dutiful mind adds that extra sparkle to her overall exterior.

Th skirt could have worked with a plane top, with this shirt a big no.
ReplyDeleteTrès bel imprimé de la jupe que je vois bien portée avec ce chemisier dont j'aime beaucoup l'encolure ; bon choix que ces chaussures à bride !
ReplyDeleteSorry but I do not like anything she is wearing here. The white shirt tucked in the skirt make her look wider than she is. The skirt has not the right cut for Duchess Sophie's morphology. The straps of the white espadrilles are cutting her legs in 2. Best not wearing espadrilles but a comfortable white shoe with a little block heel. Her handbag is looking like one of those cheap nylon bags, which probably isn't. She kept her classic jewelry very simple.
ReplyDeleteAs expected, lovely hair, make-up and jewelry. The blouse is nice, but the skirt, handbag and shoes are just not flattering. The print of the skirt is nice, however, but not with this blouse. Fun and wise to do a bit of royal theater and stage photos that remind of the Queen and Prince Philip when they were there in Malta. In fact, I think that's what Sophie was going for with the skirt - a retro look - that unfortunately does her no favors.
