Sophie, 57, turned heads in a striking Etro dress. Her fashionable ensemble featured chic ruched sleeves, a figure-flattering drop waistline and stunning exotic floral print in yellow, pink and blue hues. She accessorised with her favourite Sophie Habsburg wicker handbag and Penelope Chilvers tango suede shoes.

The royal styled her signature blonde hair into a modish half-up, half-down hairstyle, highlighting her pretty pearlescent floral studs and ageless beauty glow.

The wife of Prince Edward kept her other jewellery simple, adorning a simple silver chain with floral pendants and a silver bangle. Divine!
