Doesn't she look wonderful in ice blue figured satin with little inserts of matching plain satin for style. Her hair and makeup are wonderful and her triple string of pearls and pearl and diamond earrings are the choir . . . . the glorious aquamarine clips are the tenors, harmonising and lifting the ensemble out of really nice, to wow, doesn't she look amazing. The video is well worth a look and she looks so alive and animated and her smile is wonderful.

I love it! and yes it does look a lot more contemporary and Sophie could definitely have something like it in her wardrobe.This dress looks like from The Countess of Wessex's wardrobe I like it.What a nice change for her! Takes 20 years off, IMO.

We so rarely get to see HM wearing civvies and the Festival of Remembrance provides the opportunity for her to do her own thing within the dress code. Her dress with its clearly defined velvet yoke provides the perfect backdrop for her pearls giving them a gorgeous lustre and one of her collection of bow brooches with its attached spray of blood-red poppies providing the needed "pop" of colour. She looks positively luminous in black when it is a fashion statement rather than mourning dress.
Yep, 20 years younger, I do agree.
I love the Queen's dress. She looks lovely in black. I am puzzled by the gold on the side of her handbag. I can't tell if it is an inset on the side or maybe a scarf hanging out. Any ideas?
