Sophie, Countess of Wessex doesn’t spend anywhere near as much time in the public eye as some of her fellow royal ladies, but she certainly knows how to make a statement when she does step into the spotlight.

Favouring bright colours, patterns and on-trend maxi styles, her tour wardrobe is a masterclass in effortless elegance.
