The Duchess of Edinburgh Attends 2024 Armistice Day Service in Staffordshire

The Duchess was dressed in an all-black ensemble as a mark of respect, including a v-neck style button-up Armani coat

On November 11, 2024, The Duchess of Edinburgh attended the Remembrance service at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire in honor of Armistice Day 2024. During the service, the Duchess read an excerpt from For the Fallen, a poem by Lawrence Binyon, before observing a two-minute silence. Events have been held across the UK and Europe to commemorate Armistice Day – the day marking the historic agreement that ended the First World War. After the service, the Duchess took the time to speak with veterans.

    1. For my English learning, what does “serving a great look mean”? (Or typo?) I’ve learnt “serving” others, “serving” dinner, “serving” the tennis ball, but how can you serve a look??? Aren’t you wearing clothes not giving them? Thanks!

    2. "Serving a great look" (or certain great looks) means to offer or to provide great looks wardrobewise to others (to us as spectators) to look at. She certainly does so, I agree with LOla.

    2. While this hat and the previous one are quite different, Sophie looks fantastic in both styles.

  8. Sophie looks perfect again! I love this hat--it's my favorite pill box style--and the bow at the back is beautiful detail. And the length is perfect--for both the coat and whatever she is wearing underneath.

  10. Duchess Sophie seems to prefer bows on her hats. This one looks better for her than the one she wore the day before. The form of the hat looks a bit like the tiara's (or hats) worn by the Russian tsarina's. The pill box style worn by Jacky Kennedy were 2 equal circles not a bigger for the top and a smaller for the part that touches the head. The bow is too big for my taste. I admire her she can wear no scarf or closed dress or top under her coat with the cold November weather we had the last days. The length of her coat is just fine, so much better than the long coats and dresses she used to wear.
