i totally agree the royals should try some new cloths we are in a new age and our royals and primeinisters look elrgrnt but from the 1900

remember when the new french president cam over his wife clara was beautiful she out shone gordon browns wife who looked like a whale in baby cloths and clara fitted in with the queen even tough there styels were totally different

I was just looking at the WENN website, and Sophie, Countess of Wessex is pictured wearing the exact same skirt, just yesterday at the Chelsea Flower Show.

It doesn't look any better on her, either!!

Sorry, I can't link to the picture.

Actually bizarly, I beg to differ; I think it actually looks better on Sophie. Never thought I'd say that!!!

Another picture of Sophie from Hello:
HELLO! Photo gallery – Latest celebrity photos - hellomagazine.com, HELLO!

I'm assuming the skirt is from a British designer because this is what the Countess favors although I could be totally off too.

its abit embarrasing that sophie wore the same skirt as mary. as i recall posts said that mary's skirt was too short and she is in her mid 30s well what about sophie wearing the same skirt in her mid 40s plus she does have the same figure to carry it off as mary a really bad choice from the countess but that is to be expected as she lacks any dress sense

Let's give the Countess some credit for chosing a skirt with a FLOWER print when attending the Chelsea FLOWER show

Yes the skirt is really the same! I wonder where they bought it, it must be from a known designer for sure!!! But I really like to see Sophie with this skirt but not Princess Mary, it is not her style..

Yes. It is from the photoshoot for Queen Fabiola's 80th birthday. Princess Mathilde is holding her newest child.

Princess Letizia & Princess Mary in similar dress style. Letizia in a shorter version of Marys long gown. Layers are very similar as well as to the sleeves & waist part ( looks like a belt from the same material of the dress )

Letizia ** Mary

Well I liked the dress on Mary, but Letizia's short version and more vibrant colour is a much better look.
