Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh attended a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace, in London, and chose a stunning grey dress for the occasion, which she paired with a matching hat and a pair of elegant nude pumps from Moda in Pelle. Sophie recycled her Sophie Coatdress in French Blue from Suzannah London and the Heliconia Hat in Light Blue from the spring-summer 2017 Collection.
The Palace shared some pictures of the Duchess of Edinburgh meeting ex-servicemen and other attendees at the garden party and explained: “Lovely afternoon at Buckingham Palace for @thenotforgotten.
“Garden Party, hosted by The Duchess of Edinburgh. An annual tradition since 1921, the event brings together over 2,000 ex-servicemen and women for a special afternoon in the garden.”
Sophie’s dress was from Suzannah London, one of her go-to designers, and her lovely hat was from the British handmade luxury headwear brand and royal favourite Jane Taylor London.
On Twitter, @jeannedubrasky2 commented: “The Duchess of Edinburgh is I think the most ‘classic lady’ of all of them. She has been since day one.”

For jewellery, Sophie decided to keep it simple and sported a pair of drop earrings featuring a black gemstone and her iconic gold handbag necklace, one of her favourite designs.
Jewellery expert Claire Adler commented on the meaning behind the unique Hermes pendant, the Constance Amulette Pendant in Rose Gold.
She explained: “There is something undeniably feminine and empowering about a handbag.
“Handbag pendants aren’t as common as one might think although there are a fair number of lovely vintage examples online. Sophie’s one looks like it is gold with pave diamonds.
