Duchess Sophie strides out in sumptuous suede knee-highs and her most unexpected colour combination this season

Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh watches the racing as she attends Coral Gold Cup Day at Newbury Racecourse on November 29, 2025 .

Nothing brightens up a dreary day like wearing a pop of colour and the Duchess of Edinburgh definitely did this when she and Prince Edward enjoyed a day at the races on 29th November.
