At the request of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), the Duchess of Edinburgh is undertaking a three-day official visit to Bangladesh. On the third day of her visit, the Duchess, accompanied by British High Commissioner to Bangladesh Sarah Cooke, met with Bangladesh's President, Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, at Bangabhaban in Dhaka.
Afterwards, the Duchess of Edinburgh visited the British Council in Dhaka to attend its 75th Anniversary Reception. During her visit, the Duchess met young people involved in initiatives supporting women's empowerment, green entrepreneurship and international education, and heard about their work and experiences.
During the visit, the Duchess of Edinburgh was also presented with a piece of artwork created by one of the British Council's talented Young Learners to mark 75 years of the council.
Dr Valerie Taylor, founder of the Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed (CRP), was presented with the insignia of Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) at an event held at the British High Commission in Dhaka, attended by the Duchess of Edinburgh.
Lovely colour for her
ردحذفCet imprimé fleuri sur fond vert lui sied à merveille surtout quand Sophie l’accompagne d’une écharpe de couleur fraise !
ردحذفLovely, lovely, lovely look from Sophie. This shade of green is a wonderful color for her. The middle of the 3 photos with the little girl is a real glimpse into Sophie--her warmth, her relatability, her ability to connect with people anywhere (imho).

The dress is very pretty. I don't usually like large floral prints but this one is an exception due to the blue petals on the edge of the white irises. They look divine against the solid green background. I also like the feminine design of the bodice and sleeves.
ردحذفThat little girl is so cute. Her art is spectacular. A really lovely set of photos here and Sophie’s outfit fitting in very well.
ردحذفBeautiful!
ردحذفThe photos of the Duchess with the little one, so heartwarming and natural. The Duchess is so authentic, I love the look on her face, real deal from her, from the heart. I feel this dress looks really lovely. Its very attractive especially combined with the lovely scarf, adding a splash of color and elegance. This has been a great tour of substance.
ردحذفThe dress is beautiful. I'd have preferred a blue scarf/shawl, same or similar colour as on the print of the dress. The red is too jarring and prematurely Christmas-like.

If you look at picture 2, the red scarf matches the flag behind the Duchess, so I suspect absolutely nothing to do with Christmas.
حذفIt picks out the red in the dress. Lovely coordination.
حذفI think she has this dress from Suzannah in at least 3 or 4 colourways This big print with this particular cut is not flattering on Sophie at all, in my opinion. The light green version she wore multiple times looks much better.
