A new photograph of the Duchess of Edinburgh has drawn widespread admiration from royal fans after Sophie attended a charity event on Tuesday evening.
The 60-year-old royal appeared at the third annual Orbis Visionaries reception, held at London’s Battersea Power Station. She participated in a panel discussion focused on the fight against avoidable vision loss and the urgent global need for accessible eye health care.

For the occasion, she wore a sophisticated paisley-print shirtdress by Etro, accessorized with elegant gold drop earrings.
