    The shorter hair looks fabulous on Sophie. Shortening her skirts would also contribute to a more youthful picture.

      She’s in her 50s; we don’t have to look younger and younger you know. Looking young isn’t a useful or even logical goal.

      50 is not old these days. A real woman wishes to look younger all the time. I love what she did to her hair. The summer dress is nice just too long as usual.

    6. Anonymous 21:30, you say: "A real woman wishes to look younger all the time." But then if a woman says: "Okay, I am 50 and look like 50, that's fine" is she no "real woman"? Is she a "fake woman"?? Or an "unreal woman"??

  4. This is a great fair- visiting look for DOE.(I do wish we could see her shoes though!?)
    The colour suits her too.
    Her new haircut looks wonderful!

    This dress and bag works perfectly for the event; it is summery and comfortable with a twist. Very nice!

    I just love the print, colour and style of this dress on The DoE. I can’t see a full figure photo however, it would appear to be a long dress…very sensible cut and style on her! My only quibble is the belt…

    Sophie looks absolutely gorgeous. So happy and so summery (in the proper, refreshing, gentle, non-heatwave version of the word!).

  8. Ma che bella Sophie, l'abbronzatura fa la sua parte e il vestito è delizioso come il suo sorriso.

  12. Joli look dans cette robe imprimée estivale comme son petit sac à bandoulière ; est-elle chaussée de sandales ? Je suis ravie de sa coupe de cheveux ; j’espère qu’elle va continuer à la garder !

    Sophie looks gorgeous! Her shorter hair has completely changed how she looks--its added a new level of vivaciousness to her appearance. Her outfit here is perfect for the occasion--pretty, floaty, feminine, and summery with lots of room for movement.

    Not a fan of the new hair cut. The dress needs to be shorter, and maybe it would all look better.

    The beautiful duchess is 61 not in her 50s

  16. The Duchess looks wonderful in this pretty summer dress. The only quibble I have is the length of the dress, and I like longer dresses. Her hair looks so gorgeous, the new hair cut - shorter is so becoming, she looks so much younger than her 61 years! She looks feminine, elegant and very attractive.

    This is a good dress on Sophie. Unlike many of her previous dresses, it is meant to be the length she wears it at
