Duchess Sophie, since her rise as king, has been exuding a more confident sartorial approach in her recent outings and it turned out to have her own “effect.”
Prince Edward and his wife have always preferred to be hard-working, low-key royals, but given the magnitude of the royal commitments and duties they perform at the monarch’s behest, Sophie has been experimenting more with her style.
The Duchess of Edinburgh, Honorary Chair of LEAF (Linking Environment And Farming), attended the Groundswell Regenerative Farming Festival at Lannock Farm in Hitchin last week.
There, he met with farmers, environmental experts and exhibitors to learn more about regenerative agriculture and sustainable agricultural practices.
She also took the opportunity to show off her new hairstyle, the shortest she has worn in approximately the last 15 years. She was also dressed in one of her favorite designers, Penelope Chilvers, who seemed delighted that Sophie chose her creation.
“What a wonderful moment to see HRH The Duchess of Edinburgh wearing Penelope Chilvers from head to toe as she champions British farmers and agricultural innovation,” Penelope wrote for the royal.
“After 24 years dedicated to creating beautifully made footwear, last season marked the beginning of our next chapter,” he continued.
“As we continue to build a wardrobe designed to pair effortlessly with our signature footwear, we were delighted that the Duchess chose to wear our best-selling Goldie boots with the Lancaster denim skirt and silk bow blouse.”
