The CH dress is gorgeous. I'm happy to see it again because it's a real classic, beautifully tailored from the bodice to the waistband and perfect for the occasion.

Me too Sandy, I love this dress although I do slightly prefer the red version. I hope we will see it again soon!

My goodness, I turn my back for five minutes and there are three more Letizia engagements. The royal family pulled off a memorable and solemn occasion with great dignity here, and I' delighted to see that superb CH dress again. It rather demonstrates how much more gravitas for such occasions can be gained by wearing couture rather than High Street. Sofia looks so grown up in her navy shirtdress and the edgy slingbacks,
