The Duchess of Edinburgh departed from her typically feminine and ultra-glamorous spring wardrobe on Tuesday, opting instead for a chocolate brown power suit, a repeat of one of her best looks.
Duchess Sophie, aged 59, chose slick and sleek tailoring for her tour of the west coast, accompanying her husband Prince Edward on visits to the Isle of Tiree, the Isle of Skye, and the Isle of Coll, packed with engagements.
Footage shared by STV shows the Duchess breaking away from her usual pastel-hued wardrobe.
The mother-of-two sported the ‘Stephanie’ double-breasted wool blazer and ‘Vesta’ trousers from Gabriela Hearst, a favorite brand of the Duchess of Sussex.
The trousers, complete with a super high waist and pleated detailing, accentuated Sophie’s statuesque silhouette, while the waist-cinching blazer complemented her feminine frame.
Choosing practicality over style, the royal carried a chic Sophie Habsburg ‘Paloma’ bag, adding delicate pearl earrings to complete her tonal look.
Sophie’s ensemble followed a polarizing fashion look just days prior when she wore olive-green flared trousers with a striped T-shirt and camel-hued blazer, with some royal style fans particularly divided over her suede grey heels, which they felt “clashed” with her outfit.
