The Trooping the Colour ceremony has marked the official birthday of the British Sovereign for over 260 years, so it's no wonder the British royals stepped out in a series of immaculate outfits to mark the special occasion. Looking particularly stunning, Countess Sophie donned a bespoke gingham power suit by Suzannah London, catching the attention of royal fans.
