Duchess Sophie Takes on Spring's Powder Pink Trend as She Highlights a Groundbreaking Exhibition

After Barbie pink took over the world in 2023, some of us needed more than a little bit of a detox. But this year, its softer cousin, powder pink, is having a moment, as seen on many of the spring/summer 2025 runways.

The Duchess of Edinburgh wore a pale pink maxi dress by Gabriela Hearst to visit the Imperial War Museum's Unsilenced: Sexual Violence in Conflict exhibit—the first of its kind in the U.K. The soft, feminine color was especially poignant for the duchess's outing as she learned more about the history of sexual violence against women from World War I through the present.
