The 59-year-old royal stepped out in the perfect summer frock as she attended the festival at Lannock Manor Farm in Hitchin on Thursday. The mother of two looked the perfect English rose in her ankle length dress which featured long sleeves and a long flowing skirt, worn with a cream blazer and her soft blonde hair swept into a laidback bun.

Sophie serves as Honorary President of the charity LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming), where she supports their aims of sustainable food production and to teach young people with where British food comes from. The gorgeous Herefordshire country served as the perfect backdrop to her summery ensemble which showcased her elegance and good taste.
