Love the hat, love the dress color, I do not like the dress itself.

I like the hat, but not the dress. The print is fine, but I dislike the bows on shoulder and the hem, it seems too long and the asymmetric hem doesn't look well with this print. And the shoes looks so random with the whole outfit.

I think the dress works, but I am not a fan of the shoes at all.

Oh my giddy Aunt. The whole outfit is so hideous it's verging on Widow Twanky.

why are there bows on the arms? At first I would say it is a nice dress - but this is not the function to wear it to, But if Ascot is not the place to wear it - then where do you wear it ? It does appear to be a nice outfit - on the model. But not for Sophie.

At Royal Ascot on June 16, 2022, the Countess of Wessex is trying to get onto a Worst Dressed list.

How can a lady who looked so elegant on day 1 think this monstrous ensemble looks good?

Spot on. Worn without the hat, minus the bows, the pendant and with a less clunky shoe, on a different occasion it might work for the Countess, but this is an unfortunate, and costly, mistake.
