Queen Camilla and King Charles woke up and smelled the roses — in style.
The royal couple stopped by the Sandringham Flower Show in Sandringham Park, Norfolk, England, on Wednesday by the use of a horse-drawn carriage.
Camilla, 76, donned a belted, pleated dress featuring a garden-appropriate green, ivy-leaf pattern, while Charles, 74, sported a dapper tan suit and fedora, a red patterned tie and a complementary pocket square — in addition to dark shades for the sunny day.
The previous Duchess of Cornwall was spotted sniffing and picking a colourful bouquet of florals, while Charles was seen chatting with a bunch of onlookers, even chuckling as they spoke.
This 12 months’s event marks the one hundred and fortieth anniversary of the show, which brings greater than 20,000 attendees annually to the venue, which is definitely a part of the royal family’s home where they often spend the Christmas holiday.
The flower show features display gardens, charity booths, a band and mini competitions to showcase vegetables, fruit, flowers and art.
Camilla’s easy floral frock seemed an appropriate alternative for the show, though her fashion sense has made headlines of late.
Clothing expert Leroy Dawkins recently dished that Camilla wears the identical sort of ensembles to different events, akin to A-line-styled dresses.
While she dresses “remarkably well” for her age, he told the Each day Express, she could “profit so much” by changing up her wardrobe in only a couple of other ways.”
“As a stylist, I would favor to see Queen Camilla’s hemline come up just a bit of and see her wear more structured fabrics and more form-fitting sheath dresses like other royal ladies,” he said.
“For the evenings, she could try experimenting with more form-fitting, shorter-sleeve dresses, along with her hemline lowered so her shoes will not be showing,” Dawkins suggested, adding that she also needs to try wearing bolder colours.
One other recent event where Charles and Camilla were spotted — the Royal Ascot late last month — also brought critique from body language expert Darren Stanton, who revealed how the 2 lean on one another in public.
Stanton said the ex-Prince of Wales often will depend on Camilla for “strength and reassurance,” while she “takes the lead” during their speaking engagements.
On the event, he noted that while the duo “look very comfortable and assured together,” Charles sometimes seems lost without his beloved standing “directly by his side.”
“She has grow to be his rock who he will depend on in social settings,” he said. “Camilla doesn’t need to be joined on the hip.”
