Summary
- Duchess Sophie wore a brown houndstooth set in Finland.
- The outfit resembled one Princess Diana wore in 1981.
- Sophie and Prince Edward visited Finland to strengthen UK ties.

During a recent visit to Finland, the Duchess of Edinburgh, Sophie, showcased a memorable fashion moment that echoed Princess Diana's style. The Duchess wore a sophisticated brown houndstooth jacket and midi skirt ensemble from Gabriela Hearst, paired with a pale blue shirt and boots.
This particular outfit bore a strong resemblance to a two-piece ensemble Princess Diana wore in Scotland in 1981 during her honeymoon with Prince Charles. Diana's designer outfit featured a more pronounced '80s silhouette.
Sophie's striking resemblance to Diana's look was noted while she was in Finland with her husband, Prince Edward. Their Royal Highnesses were in Helsinki to celebrate the enduring relationship between the United Kingdom and Finland.
Their visit included engagements at City Hall, celebrating Finnish art and culture, and a reception at the Ambassador's Residence. The couple's program highlighted key areas of UK-Finland partnership, including defense, security, business, innovation, and education.
