The Countess of Wessex’s Style

It's not all about the clothes Lucca. There are at least half a dozen comments on this thread about her demeanour, and from 3 or so posters who have actually met her.
I like her shoes, but wouldn't choose them fir myself.

I've just dug this out from the back of my wardrobe to copy Sophie's style. Luckily I'm blonde too, but need to grow my hair to wear a ponytail and her waist is a bit trimmer.

Joseanne love the dress, so feminine. I have grown my hair since lock down and wear it similarly to Sophie, it's so easy to deal with.

Oooh I love it. Beautiful colours.

I daren’t buy any more dresses at the moment as I have a wardrobe full of them, but it doesn’t stop me looking! Though I do have one on order to wear to a wedding this summer, but it only cost £38

What a pretty dress Joseanne - I only wish I had legs ? for a dress - mine are like matchsticks ?

^ what on earth is wrong with the shoes!^

Toe squashers

It looks quite long H. My legs are not things of beauty either these days.?

I only own one dress and don't wear that.

I always think other people look lovely in dresses but not me.
Perhaps because I can't wear high heels or even nice shoes any more.

Sophie's dress looks comfortable and cool

I think she’s about 5ft 5ins, so taller than me.

This dress from Roman is similar to some of her looks, and is on offer at £25.

Everyone made fun of Edwards It’s a Royal knockout but I thought it was a good attempt to drag the royals into the modern age.

That's more what I meant about a peplum frill at the bottom, but I would take the puff out of the sleeves.

According to Google she is 5'4".

Still taller than me Rubysong.

Same as me (now I've shrunk)
So why don't I look like that in a dress?

Answers on a postcard not reqired ?

Not required

I also thought Sophie was taller.

The camera may not lie but it can certainly deceive.

I love the dress she’s wearing but she’s welcome to the toe squashers. ?

I must be a giant as she looked tiny next to me. She's certainly petite.

I’m not one for frills and fripperies but I do love a nice frock. This is so much better than the skintight scratchy fussy ones worn by many celebs.

She dresses like I did in the nineties.. all very Laura Ashley- school PTA and pillar of the church as well as a busy wife and mum. Nothing to write home about in 2022, is it.

Many years ago, when their children were small, Sophie and Edward visited our school. They were fascinated by the outdoor ethos and loved exploring it. When a child fell over, Sophie responded wisely yet sensitively like a good and caring parent.

How very clever of you to be so fashion forward GammyGranny. I was all skinny black jeans and Vivienne Westwood t-shirts in my leisure time, with well cut suits for work. Did you keep your old frocks? They’d be bang on trend now.

I've got a frock from 1980 that seems to be bang on trend, problem is it's a size 10 and I'm not

It’s vintage, Calli, get it advertised on Vinted, you could make a tidy sum!

I don't think it's a famous designer, Blossoming
Sid Green?
I might give it to one of the DD!
