The event was held in the gardens at Buckingham Palace and the Duchess of Edinburgh nailed the perfect spring-to-summer look as she re-wore a white and pink gingham ensemble.
The Duchess' dress was from the brand Suzannah which is one of the go-to brands for the Duchess of Edinburgh's dresses. The dress was in a coat style and features a low collared neckline with large double-breasted white buttons across the front of the dress. The dress hung low and rested around the Duchess' ankles. Although this coat dress is no longer in stock, the brand sells many similar looks with the same fabric.

The gingham coat dress was also a sustainable choice by Her Royal Highness. Sophie has worn this dress on many occasions and seems to save this look for summery events that take place outside and in the sun.
The Duchess was most recently seen in this dress in June 2022 when the Duchess and Duke of Edinburgh attended the Trooping The Colour, the Queen's annual birthday parade in London.
For the Trooping of the Color the Duchess wore the exact same coat dress and the exact same hat, proving that this versatile dress is the perfect summer look and made in a timeless style that can be worn again and again.
