It couldn’t have been a more wonderful choice for wearing amongst the stunning blooms all around her and Prince Charles at the show. Duchess Camilla previously wore this same dress when she attended a birthday lunch hosted for her by The Oldie magazine in London.
At the lunch it was revealed Duchess Camilla’s intending to follow Prince Philip’s 'philosophy’ and chatted animatedly with esteemed guests including Sir Derek Jacobi and Gyles Brandreth. It’s clear Duchess Camilla's tropical look is a favorite of hers to re-wear it in such quick succession.
And fans were delighted to see her wear it again, with one declaring admiringly, “The duchess looks beautiful 🌻🌞”.
“Great photo of the Duchess,” another person agreed, as others praised how she and Prince Charles looked together.
Someone else commented simply, “What a beautiful couple...they'll make a lovely King and Queen 🥰
