To attend the commemorative ceremony of the 50th anniversary of the Birmingham attacks, Sophie from Edinburgh set her sights on a very warm coat to face the winter.
On November 21, 1974, Birmingham and its residents were targeted in horrific pub bombings. To commemorate this sad anniversary, the Duchess of Edinburgh obviously made the trip. For this tragic occasion, Sophie Rhys-Jones favored a sober, but chic outfit, which protected her from the cold.
As Duchess, Sophie of Edinburgh must participate in certain official events. At each appearance, she knows how to stand out thanks to clothes that show her off perfectly. Depending on her schedule, she oscillates between sophisticated looks and others, more casual. For this formal outing in Birmingham, the wife of Prince Edward, the last son of Queen Elizabeth II, chose an outfit that allowed her to brave the cold. Indeed, she took out of her royal wardrobe, a coat dress that crowned heads love to wear, like Kate Middleton for example.
This khaki piece from the brand Claire Mischevani has a small high collar to protect the throat with a pretty bow on the side of the neck. The coat dress offers a loose fit and fitted long sleeves. To close the coat, a string of buttons adorn the front. Priced at around 1,400 euros, this traditional royal garment offers a look at the height of chic.
To accompany it, the Duchess of Edinburgh did not forget to put on a pair of brown leather gloves as well as pretty beige suede boots. A winter look that we like!
