Walking the red carpet for a special celebration at the Royal Academy of Arts in London, Sophie's magenta bodycon dress featured a halter-style neckline, fitted waistband and cut-out panelling. Amping up her look with purple peep-toe heels and a black clutch bag, the mother-of-two smiled from ear-to-ear as she headed to the prestigious event.

Heading to Royal Ascot in 2011, Sophie donned a fuschia puff-sleeved jacket and an elegant matching skirt. Completing her vibrant ensemble with a magenta fascinator, nude heels and a nude clutch bag, Sophie looked effortlessly chic at the world-famous racing event.

Attending the wedding of Crown Prince Frederik and Mary Donaldson in Denmark, Sophie certainly made a statement in this fuschia ball gown. Walking alongside her husband, Prince Edward, as they entered the Vor Frue Kirke Cathedral in Copenhagen, the Countess looked royally beautiful in a glistening silver tiara.

Offering a masterclass in tactical colour-clashing, Sophie coordinated her graphic purple block print dress with a red cardigan, making for a colourful ensemble. Appearing at the National Memorial Arboretum in Lichfield for the launch of a new memorial dedicated to the nurses that lost their lives in the First and Second World Wars, Sophie's day dress featured a fitted top, nipped-in waist and full skirt.

A vision in pink, we're still a little bit obsessed with Sophie's Royal Ascot look. Pictured in 2017, the Countess looked radiant in a rose-coloured midi dress by luxury designer Emilia Wickstead and a floral hat by Jane Taylor.

Looking every inch the Hollywood starlet, Sophie looked absolutely beautiful in this blush evening dress. Wearing the gorgeous gown to the 2012 Paralympic Ball - of which Prince Edward is a patron - Sophie coordinated her Grecian-style, floor-length dress with a dusty-pink satin shawl and a matching blush clutch bag. Styling her blonde hair in a low chignon bun, the Countess opted for nude eyeshadow and high-shine pink lip gloss - stunning.

On-hand to open The Countess of Wessex Studios at the Central School of Ballet's new premises in February 2020, Sophie's love of dance was symbolically integrated into her outfit. Wearing a plush pink trench coat over a red and white lace dress, the Countess wore her blonde hair in a ballerina-style bun and accessorised with nude-pink patent stilettos which resembled the colour of ballet slippers.

Soaking up the summer sun in Scotland, Sophie wore a pastel pink midi-dress with a velvet trim and a chic white jacket to match.

Perfect in print, Sophie chose a pale pink dress with a floral pattern and a matching wide-brimmed hat. Stunning in this bespoke creation by one of her favourite designers Emilia Wickstead, the stylish royal completed her look with pearl drop earrings.

While visiting Wood Green Animal Shelter at King's Bush Farm in Cambridgeshire, Sophie stepped out in a pastel pink co-ord which consisted of a fitted suit jacket and a matching pencil skirt. Accessorising her elegant ensemble with an ivory clutch bag and suede stilettos, the royal's demure look reminds us of Paris in the spring.
