  1. A mon humble avis, ce modèle de robe à trop grosses fleurs n'est pas fait pour Sophie même si la longueur lui va à merveille !!

    I really like this look. Her hairdo is lovely and her make-up slightly more pronounced for a great evening look. I like the fit of the dress and the slightly shorter length of the dress.

      I agree. The dress is a great fit and the colourful print suits her very well. (V.M.)

  3. I am on the fence about the pattern in this dress but I do think that the hemline is good for a change.

    Although I am not a fan of Erdem and don't like red flowers on a black ground, I must say this dress suits Duchess Sophie very well. Probably because of :
    1. The shorter length (a pity the hemline is not even);
    2. The good fit on the Duchess ;
    3. The lovely red shoes ;

  5. I have never been a fan of large floral prints. They are too overwhelming on everyone. This dress is no exception. It's not aesthetically pleasing and hard on the eyes. The only purpose it serves is to make one stand out in a crowd and not in a good way.

    This is a complete turn around from her last dress. Of course the length is lovely. She looks so much younger than when in her frumpy, longer dresses. The bold floral print is so much better than ditsy floral prints. I really love the print and the colors. That being said, I don't think the colors are the best on Sophie for her skin and hair color, but I will take this over her usual look.

    Great look except for the uneven hem.

    This is definitely one of Sophies better looks compared to some of her recent outfits. It's bit of a statement look, and it's nice to see her in something different for a change.

    This style is far more flattering on Sophie.I hope we see more of this flattering style,and less of the ankle skimming dresses.
    Her hair and make up are on point.
    She really does defy her age.
    Lowri.

    This dress is better. Like the colours, but the hem. Something is wrong here. Not pretty seeing the inside of the fabric.

    Erdem is very hit or miss, and this one is a big miss for me.

  14. Her makeup looks good, natural and shows off her beauty, naturally. Up style hair, splendid. The subtle necklace is a welcome addition. I like the dress, she looks lovely, the red shoes work in well. Overall she looks divine !

  16. What a great dress from Sophie! I usually don't like huge floral prints but this one is fabulous on Sophie--she looks beautiful. It fits her like a glove and the length is perfect.
