Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh radiant in royal blue during Iraq visit
Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, has stepped out in gorgeous ensembles during her visit to Iraq.
The royal is there in support of the Women, Peace and Security Agenda (WPS), and to continue her work to champion the survivors of conflict-related sexual violence.
For one appearance she stepped out in a royal blue blouse with gold buttons and sheer sleeves. This was the Frill-Trim Midi Dress from ME+EM.
A note on the official website read: “ME+EM’s effortlessly chic aesthetic couldn’t be better represented than through this dress.
“Rendered from a silk-blend composition, the midi-length silhouette is finished with frill trims and gold-tone buttons for an ultra-feminine touch.”

For a little mix of textures, the dress had trendy semi-sheer sleeves.
Sophie’s dress nipped in at the waist showcasing her fabulous figure.
To accessorise, she carried a royal blue and black snakeskin clutch which totally complemented the dress.
The ruffling of the collar was repeated at several parts of the skirt to break up the block colour.
Breaking away from the royal blue theme, Sophie opted for nude, pointed-toe pumps to finish off the look.
Although the dress had buttons that could be fastened right to the top, the royal kept the first two undone for a relaxed look.
The effortless royal beauty wore her blonde locks in loose waves.
In the evening, Sophie wore another blue number, a floral patterned dress featuring dark purple, lilac, blues and greens.
She wore her hair in the same chic style but appeared to wear more dark eye makeup for some evening glamour.
The dress featured a high collar and full, long sleeves.
