duch*ess Sophie looked every inch the royal she is on Day Three of Royal Ascot on Thursday.
The duch*ess of Edinburgh looked stunning in Suzannah London x Marieluise Bantel's Trixie floor-length silk shirt dress in a cream colour with a floral pattern (£2,190) and a pair of cream pointy heels.
She stylishly accessorised her look with a striking bespoke Jane Taylor hat in baby pink (£1,945) and Sophie Habsburg's Minuit clutch in burgundy red (£242).
However, royal fans were divided on Sophie's latest outfit, with several of them disapproving of the dress' length.
One user wrote on Instagram: "Just don’t love the full-length dresses on her."

A second one agreed: "Dress is nice, but too long and the hat is just too expensive. "
While a third commented: "Nice print but I don’t think the length is appropriate for the occasion, especially on grass."
However, there were others who did like the royal's ensemble and commented on the flattering pattern.
One user said: "I like it! I think the length gives this dress a formal look. If it was shorter, it would have been a pretty standard shirt dress. And I loooove the print! [heart emoji] The hat is nice too. A dress of this length needs a big hat for balance and this one is perfect! The bag gives the outfit a pop of colour. I’m a fan!"
