Queen Camilla with a nice dress in green and white during an audience at Buckingham Palace today, June 14:

Queen Camilla is wearing a red silk coat dress by Clare and a Philip Treacy hat; the outfit is inspired by The Grenadier Guards for which The Queen is Colonel-In-Chief.

Queen Camilla looks nice. I would like to see the entire regalia.
Since QE had worn uniforms that a Queen, as head of the Royal Military, would wear, and wore for decades, we have not seen a Queen (Consort) wear a military uniform in current times. This may be a look Charles has approved. I don’t think Camilla would wear something not official. I hope we hear if it is an official uniform, which I believe it is.
It's been confirmed that it isn't an official uniform, Camilla has had a dress coat made, almost copied.
It is not a military uniform.
Camilla has worn so many beautiful dresses to Trooping the Colour over the years - but this is not one of them i’m afraid…
I get the tribute to the Grenadier Guards but it would have been perfectly fine with just a normal red dress, white hat and the Grenadier badge brooches…
This half uniform - half dress looks just strange to me… Either you should wear a uniform - or you shouldn’t…
Queen Elizabeth II also wore a dress uniform hybrid. https://www.rct.uk/sites/default/fi...nline/4/0/155222-1297524030.jpg?itok=XYyrshwk It's not a real uniform.I think this dress uniform hybrid was not one of Camilla's best ideas. Except for the hat I don't think it suits her especially well, and I'm just not a huge fan of muddling the line between a true uniform, which is an honor to wear, and a royal version of a theatrical costume. It does read a bit as cosplay.
I am sure it's her uniform for upcoming years. We will see this coatdress again and again.
When I first saw photographs of Queen Consort Camilla's outfit for the Trooping the Colour, 2023, I thought it was a uniform. Thus, is she making fun of the whole deal?
