Duchess Sophie nails garden party chic in waist-defining dress and floral fascinator
You know Duchess Sophie will always look her best when attending a formal event at Buckingham Palace and Wednesday was no exception.
The Duchess of Edinburgh, 59, looked splendid in a soft salmon pink wrap dress which skimmed her knees.
The ever-stylish royal rocked the garment, which had three-quarter-length sleeves and a V-shaped neckline, with a stunning floral fascinator in the same block colour that stole the show.
Adding to the gorgeous new look was a simple clutch in a pale cream shade with sparkly adornments and a pair of neutral heels.
As always, the Duchess' makeup looked pristine and the garden party was the perfect occasion to show that a classic look never goes out of style. Sophie wore a natural look featuring glowing skin and a rosy pink lip.

Her sandy locks were styled in a sweeping updo to accommodate her sensational fascinator and to show off the flattering neckline of her pastel dress.
The royal was seen at a Royal Garden Party at Buckingham Palace hosted by King Charles alongside Princess Anne and Queen Camilla.
The Princess Royal, 73, looked elegant in a bright royal blue fitted jacket with statement buttons. The garment was worn done up with a floral skirt incorporating that same cobalt hue, as well as grey and navy.
She followed Duchess Sophie in wearing a bold fascinator, cobalt blue of course, and topped off her look with a pair of satin navy gloves and simple pumps.
Meanwhile, Queen Camilla, 76, looked as regal as ever in a cream dress with an A-line cut and black piping down the front. She paired her duo-chrome look with a matching black and white hat and capped-toe block heels as she stood next to her husband who wore a grey suit with tails and a top hat.
Around 8,000 people were invited to the event to thank them for their service to communities, charities, the military, and other organisations.
