Princess Anne was spotted at a royal engagement today wearing her beloved green tweed suit – an outfit that has become a firm favourite for the Princess Royal.
Anne, 74, Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Logistic Corps, met members of the Gurkha Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (ARRC) Support Battalion on Monday afternoon while visiting the Imjin Barracks in Innsworth, Gloucestershire.
During the Royal Family engagement, she was shown around the site and spent time talking to the members about their work.
However, royal fans were quick to notice that she was rewearing a tweed suit that she has been known to wear on various engagements, accompanied with an array of striking red accessories, including her scarf.
The Princess Royal, who wore short black heels and carried a small black handbag on the engagement, was last seen wearing the suit, which is adorned with red buttons, last year as she visited the Investment Summit in Belfast.
Anne, known for her elegant wardrobe choices, also wore the same tweed suit in 2022 in Braemar, Scotland, on a visit with Queen Camilla, the then Duchess of Cornwall.
On this occasion at The Braemar Gathering, one of the most famous of the Highland Games, Anne wore the suit along with a red cap while Camilla adorned a similar outfit.
It was said at the time that the suit was a nod to Scotland, where the Royal Family were staying at the time for their summer holidays.
The event took place just days before the death of the late Queen, who was said to have been watching the gathering from the nearby Balmoral Castle after being unable to attend.
Princess Anne remained in Scotland after the event and was with the late Queen at the time of her death on September 8, 2022, with Charles and Camilla having also stayed up in the Scottish Highlands at the time.
The Princess Royal’s latest engagement in the suit on Monday comes just days after she attended the funeral of two unidentified Scottish soldiers who died during World War I in France.
Anne was at the burial on September 26, which took place at the Loos British Cemetery of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC), in Loos-en-Gohelle, near Lens, northern France.
She laid a wreath for the soldiers at the funeral and read a blessing.
