How do we know it is a Pravda suit? Is it recycled?

Looks lovely in orange. The black coat is a good accent to it.

I love the combo of black and orange but I don't think the jacket does anything for her.
I love the cream suit though

I like the polished white outifit but I think that the high-neck sweather underneath the cape clashes a bit. I definitely prefer the sporty look

Diamond challenge, in honor of the DOE awards 60th anniversary. The tshirt is part of the package people receive who sign up to take part in the event. Great to see her supporting her FIL/husband's charity.

Yes, Sophie is a Global Ambassador for the Duke of Edinburgh Award and she’s taking part in the Diamond challenge.

A bit off topic, but worth noting, anyone, anywhere can participate and in more than a bike ride. A 60 pound donation is the qualifier, and you can join in on adventure, personal or skill goal.
Celeb ideas are here: https://dofediamondchallenge.org/celeb-challengers/
Or, say you were coming off surgery/injury and had a bit of physical therapy to do. You could set up a JustGiving account and dedicate your rehab efforts to the challenge. I think it would be splendid to think of the DofE to add a bit of spark to the effort.
Here is the COW JustGiving page: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraisi...tess-of-Wessex.

The Alice Reed dress looks lovely on Sophie, The Countess of Wessex. The look is simple and unfussy. As many European royal ladies, Sophie tends to wear too many pieces of jewellery.

the neckline is interesting, but overall not her best look, imo. The non color isn't great and the knit is too tight, showing every lump, very unforgiving.

I like the top Sophie wore on May 12, but am not a fan of the skirt with it as to me it seems like there's a little too much going on. The colours overall are great and Sophie looks quite elegant.
