Duchess Sophie has looked immaculate all week during her trip to Ukraine.
The Duchess of Edinburgh, 59, was spotted on Monday in an unexpected printed maxi dress covered in oversized flowers with contrasting a geometric pattern around the waist and cuffs.

She looked so elegant in a brand new printed cotton dress from Etro which featured long sleeves, a cinched waistline, and a tiered floaty skirt. Sophie rounded off the look with the 'Ginny' clutch from Sophie Habsburg, a blue croc print style, and the 'Cream Leather Pointed Pumps' from Nicola Sexton.

The Duchess of Edinburgh is the first royal to visit Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion. The visit intended to demonstrate solidarity with the women, men, and children impacted by the war, as a continuation of her work championing survivors of conflict-related sexual violence.
