The Fashion Museum holds a world-class collection of contemporary and historic dress. (The Countess wore a new floral print silk midi dress by Oscar de la Renta.) |
It is a lovely dress but too bad she never showed it off! Instead we see that same old baggy coat she has worn for quite some time - again.Too bad she doesn't remove it when indoors.
ReplyDeleteI agree about the over-sized baggy coat but if she has to wear it, please make the dress shorter. This is just a horrible look.
DeleteI do like her hair like this with more softness on the sides and her make-up is always appropriate.
I agree with KH and Hero. This is a no-go.
DeleteI think the dress looked good on her and I also like her hair, so smooth and elegant.
ReplyDeleteBut I don't like the coat either
I like her style a lot and this outfit is really amazing. The dress is wonderful, classy and modern at the same time and I really love this coat, it has a special shape but looks fantastic on her. Happy to see that coat again :-)
ReplyDeleteDuchess Sophie: her dress is wonderful but I'm not a fan of her coat. It is too boxy for me. Otherwise a simple and classy outfit.
ReplyDeleteAnd her smile is amazing!
Sophie is lovely and would look great with shorter hair. She also has very nice legs and I am not sure why she wears such long clothes.
ReplyDeleteSophie looked wonderful! I do not usually care for busy patterned dresses, so I like that she wore a simple, classic coat. I like this coat. When she wears it, it looks cozy and comfortable. The shoes complement the look. While she seems to prefer her hair up, I would like to see it down sometimes and styled like she used to do. But at least she wears it in a soft way, not so severely pulled back.
ReplyDeleteNice spring dress and lovely coat and shoes. She looks good.
ReplyDeleteLovely dress. I like the coat in principle but it's just a bit too big and loose to be entirely smart. Good to see Sophie again. She looks great.
ReplyDeleteI think this dress may have given her a nice shape, but we were never able to see it. The coat is a fail for me each time I see it. It does her no favors. I am happy to see her hair is not pulled back so tightly, but I still like her hair down. It frames her face so beautifully.
