The Duchess of Edinburgh was a vision in purple as she cheered from the crowds at the track cycling event in Paris yesterday.

The 59-year-old is currently in the French capital to soak up the excitement of the 2024 Olympic Games, with her travelling to follow Princess Anne’s appearance last week.

The Duchess, who is patron of the British Cycling Federation, looked delighted to be in attendance, with many royal fans expressed their interest in her outfit choice – the ‘Roisin’ purple floral-print midi dress from Erdem, which retails for £1,198.

Taking to @remisagoodboy’s post on X, fans pointed out how much they loved her look – especially at how “perfect” the dress was.

One fan commented: “This dress is perfect”, with another adding, “I love that dress; the colour is gorgeous [red-heart emoji].”

The fan commented: “Whoever it is Sophie works with to dress her has it hands down [100-percent emoji]. Absolutely beautiful.”

Prince Edward’s wife was also spotted joining spectators at the Men’s Hockey Quarter-Final on Sunday, August 4. After her first appearance in Paris, many fans discussed their delight to see Sophie supporting Team GB.

One fan took to social media to comment: “The Duchess of Edinburgh is one of the most amazing members of the Royal Family, she has worked behind the scenes for so many years with very little acknowledgement and now it is her time to shine, as a Duchess (with the title her and Edward deserve).”

Another commented: “Amazing to see The Duchess of Edinburgh supporting Hockey GB! Good luck for the girls today.”
