I must say don't like the outfit and really don't like it with the coat.

The coat reminds me of bathrobes worn in the 1970s/80s, I don‘t like it either, but it is by Victoria Beckham:

The Countess's style has been very hit and miss lately ,all are nice as separate pieces but not together.

A bathrobe was the first thing I thought of when I saw her coat. I’m not a fan of the coat either but I do like the shirt and skirt she’s wearing in the other photos.

The coat is different….when I saw it I was reminded of the clothing style around WWII. It is the style, cut and fabric, just. reminds me of the War Time. I do not care for the ivory or cream colored blouse. Yes, with the Countess it is hit and sometimes miss.

I have to agree with @Clare, I am no fan of the outfit. It just seems overly fussy.

I love the richness of the colour and texture which has a warm, seasonal feel . Also like the blouse skirt combination.

I don’t either.

The coat really does look like a bathrobe.

I agree I love the colour and actually with jeans or as an entirely casual piece its great but I have to say her style has been hit or miss lately lots of colours that don't actually work well together topped with ultra long coats that drown Sophie IMO

I agree about the color of the coat and it being more suitable with jeans or a casual outfit. The outfit under the coat ...... the skirt is good but the blouse color washes her out. I would have liked the blouse in black.

A different try with yesterday’s coat, the green works fine with the shade of red, but still: the coat just doesn't appeal to me

The Countess of Wessex earlier today, still in Brussels:

Really don’t like the green top and cream trousers with the cost. She desperately needed a better foundation garment with that top. However, her fashion choices are always interesting and rarely bland.

It looks like she reached into her closet and grabbed the first things she found. Not flattering.

Nice coat - I am not partial to animal print, so refraining from commenting further. I did notice the amount of outlets that mixed Sophie and Louise up.

The coat is really lovely but not crazy about that hat and hairstyle.
