The Duchess of Edinburgh joined forces with Zara Tindall and Princess Beatrice who all made a subtle message of support for Princess Kate during her Together at Christmas Carol Concert Service on Friday (December 6). The 59-year-old sent royal fans into meltdown when she donned a colour look when she arrived at Westminster Abbey.
Sophie looked effortlessly chic after donning a colour of the season along with the women of the Royal Family. Her colourful dress boasted tones of burgundy, which both Zara, 43, and Beatrice, 36, also stepped out in.
Following the demands over her outfit, it has been reported that she bought the garment from the luxury designer Matelier. It features an eye-catching chic purple and a unique brown pattern.
Meanwhile, the Spanish described it as a dress that is: “Made of printed chiffon in beige and eggplant tones. It has a V-neckline and draped waist. The sleeves are wide with flares that provide a lot of movement.”
However, it comes with a hefty price tag and retails at £240. The frenzy of Express.co.uk has found stunning alternative designs that are less than half price, which will allow you to emulate the Duchess’s trendy look.
The Wallis Petite Purple Paisley Wrap Dress is absolutely stunning and only costs £32.50 at Debenhams.
