On May 19, 2025, King Charles III and Queen Camilla visited the RHS Chelsea Flower Show at the Royal Hospital Chelsea in London. The King and Queen were among the first to tour the gardens on display, joined by well-known figures such as football icon David Beckham and actress Cate Blanchett. This year’s event emphasizes rewilding and sustainability, featuring mossy paving, native planting, and gravel paths.
The King and Queen visited the Highgrove Gardens stand, which raises funds for The King’s Foundation—the charity established to support sustainable communities and preserve heritage arts and crafts—of which David Beckham is now an ambassador. The flower show runs from May 20 to 25, 2025. The King serves as Patron of the Horticultural Society.
I like this dress, always have since she originally wore it. The colour is good, the print is forgiving, nice easy wear, goes well with the shoes
ReplyDeleteQ. Camilla looks okay but I find this dress quite ordinary - small print, tie waist, zip front. In the photo with King Charles and the dog there's a lady wearing a beautiful dress with an interesting print. Even though we see only a back view I think it's a much better look than the Queen's. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteI noticed that lady in her beautiful dress too — would certainly love to see more views, and to know the designer!
DeleteCharles has a cane. I hope it’s a part of his outfit and doesn’t indicate weakening or instability. The Chelsea Flower Show must be one of the loveliest London visits they make.
ReplyDeleteCharles looks pretty good despite his illness. He hasn't lost any weight. The cane could be part of his treatments which can weaken the body unfortunately. It's very inspiring how he soldiers on and doesn't let it get him down.
DeleteHe’s had that or a similar cane for years, often while in Scottish country side, more sporting than medical. DLH
DeleteWhat an involved couple, dressed for the occasion and relaxed and in this wonderful show.
ReplyDeleteThe house dress is back again. Where are the flowers ?
ReplyDeleteI love flowers, so I dream of visiting this show one day!
ReplyDeleteJe vois que Camilla a sorti de son dressing cette robe estivale aux jolis petits motifs sur fond vert avec une ceinture nouée ton sur ton ; je n'ai pas réussi à voir une fermeture éclair ?!
ReplyDeleteThey both look well and happy and it’s wonderful to see.
ReplyDeleteAn ensemble that should be worn at home not to an official engagement!
ReplyDeleteI agree. (mjt)
DeleteLovely dress. Hope we see them and other members of the family at the flower show
