Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh joined members of the British royal family for a visit to Scotland on Tuesday. The royal fashioned a dress ideal for the summertime season and accessorized with elements that elevated her dress for the Sovereign’s Garden Party.

For the occasion, the Duchess of Edinburgh styled a dress courtesy of Roland Mouret. The light blue, short-sleeve maxidress featured a bow detail on the shoulder of the knit dress. The frock included a slightly cinched waist and hemline to the ankle.

The Duchess of Edinburgh wore a pair of heels by Jimmy Choo and accessorized with a bespoke ornately designed wide-brim hat courtesy of Jane Taylor London. To complete her look, Sophie wore jewelry by G. Collins & Sons and carried a metallic clutch by Sophie Habsburg, a brand the Duchess of Edinburgh often gravitates toward.

This isn’t the first occasion for which the Duchess of Edinburgh has fashioned this particular design by Roland Mouret. In April, the royal attended the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace alongside her husband, Prince Edward.

For the occasion, for which Sophie and her husband stood in on behalf of King Charles III amid his treatment for an undisclosed form of cancer, the Duchess of Edinburgh wore the same light blue Roland Mouret maxidress. Instead of a wide-brim, intricately designed hat, Sophie elevated her look with other designer elements.

The Duchess of Edinburgh wore a double-breasted brushed wool coat in sand white by Max Mara for the Changing of the Guard. Sophie also fashioned blush pink pointed-toe pumps by Prada and carried a Strathberry shoulder bag.

Repurposing pieces from their royal wardrobe is a trend several women in the British royal family ascribe to. Kate Middleton repurposed pieces from her wardrobe on several occasions and Queen Camilla has repurposed dresses by Fiona Clare and Anna Valentine in the recent past. For the Sovereign’s Garden Party in Scotland, the Duchess of Edinburgh took a dress ideal for spring and summertime wear and gave it a thoughtful twist for the occasion.
