Fresh from her stylish visit to the US,\u00a0<\/a>where she donned a myriad of fabulous ensembles, including an outfit by Dior,<\/a> Queen Camilla was pictured at the Badminton Horse Trials on Friday, sporting a sleek black suit jacket and matching tailored trousers.<\/p>\n

King Charles<\/a>‘ wife, who is Patron of the British Equestrian Federation, shocked onlookers with her attire. The mother-of-two famously dons dresses for most formal occasions, so to see her in something more corporate was a distinct change.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The last time she attended this same event in 2024, she wore a checked blue dress by Samantha Sung and camel pointed-toe shoes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Friday, the blonde royal still accessorised to perfection by carrying her fabulous quilted blue Chanel bag and added platform trainers in the same hue, and topped her look off with a fail-safe, classic item of a sleek white shirt.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We last saw Camilla wearing a pair of trousers in February, during London Fashion Week. The royal met with Dame Anna Wintour<\/a> at Clarence House to mark the occasion and to discuss the Queen’s Reading Room.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It must have been rather nerve-racking being photographed alongside the inspiration behind The Devil Wears Prada herself, but Camilla made a sartorial statement in an elegantly cut black silk coat dress and a pair of skinny jeans with boots.<\/p>\n

Anna was so enamoured with the Queen that she even took off her sunglasses – her trademark accessory that has made her a pop culture phenomenon.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Royal photographer Chris Jackson, who photographed the pair, said of the picture: “Both ladies are passionate about reading and literature – the iconic sunglasses were never far away, and she certainly doesn\u2019t take them off for anyone!”\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Global Editorial Director of Vogue and the Chief Content Officer of Cond\u00e9 Nast is a big fan of Camilla’s style.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Anna\u00a9 HELLO!Anna remaked that Camilla “looked marvellous” when she met her in 2002<\/p>\n

In her editor’s note for Vogue in 2002, she mused on a previous meeting with the royal, penning: “Camilla Parker Bowles was seated at my table. I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She looked marvellous, and I thought, ‘What a difference being in love makes.\u2019 Glamour, a matter of self-belief and the alignment of certain mysterious stars, is an angel that practically any woman can summon,” she revealed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fresh from her stylish visit to the US,\u00a0where she donned a myriad of fabulous ensembles, including an outfit…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":224516,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[1242,9,24,63,1433,122,124,123,1243,1241],"class_list":["post-224515","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-fashion","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-queen-camilla","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news","tag-royal-fashion","tag-royal-style"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224515","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=224515"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224515\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/224516"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=224515"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=224515"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=224515"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
