On May 5, 2026, the Duchess of Edinburgh visited Airbus Defence and Space in Stevenage. During the visit, the Duchess learned about electrical power and space systems used in modern satellite development. Airbus is a global leader in the sector, with activities including Earth observation satellites, defence systems, and space missions for agencies such as the European Space Agency.
For the visit, the Duchess wore a white gabardine wool jacket with gold buttons by the Italian fashion house Prada. She also wore the “Dugald Bouquet” midi skirt by Gabriela Hearst.

Same as in case of GD Stephanie today: If it has to be long hair and without hairstylist for the outing (no hairstylist for a normal day visit is highly understandable) , than a low ponytail, to look well-groomed. The Duchess' hair looks untidy. - Everything else like most of the time: busy allover print, thankfully covered at the top part), a skirt that is too long and a not quite well fitting jacket that would be nice with trousers or a pencil skirt, but not with a dress. For me, she looks disappointing, good enough for Mrs XY to run errands but not for the Duchess of Edinburgh representing the Royal family.
ReplyDeleteCette veste est élégante mais je la verrais mieux portée sur cette jupe avec quelques centimètres plus courte !
ReplyDeleteThe Prada jacket is well crafted and designed, suits the Duchess well. I am not sure of the combination with this dress. I personally like skirts/dresses longer, but this is even too long for me. I love the color of her shoes.
ReplyDeleteThe jacket is lovely but too small for Sophie. The skirt is too long as usual.
