Queen Camilla’s Familiar Philip Treacy Fedora Had One New Detail

Queen Camilla returned to public royal duties Wednesday at the York Racecourse for the first day of the Ebor Festival, bringing back a familiar Philip Treacy fedora with one new detail: a feather. The British royal, who is a Patron of York Racecourse, went mostly monochrome for the occasion in an Anna Valentine dress and the complementary navy hat.

Aside from her neutral pumps, trenchcoat and top-handle Dior bag, Queen Camilla’s attire embraced shades of blue, beginning with a rewear of one of her go-to Anna Valentine dresses. The midi frock featured the queen’s signature silhouette, with long sleeves, a slightly cinched waist and a midi hemline.

The dress is a favorite in Queen Camilla’s closet, having worn the piece during her tour of the United States with King Charles in April. She rewore the dress roughly one week later for a royal engagement celebrating the Monarchy exhibition at The Fan Museum in May.

This time, however, Queen Camilla changed up the accessories around the familiar dress. She wore a Philip Treacy fedora in navy with an embellished design in lighter blue and muted tones.

The feather was a new addition. She previously wore the wide-brimmed hat without it for the Royal Maundy Service at St. Asaph Cathedral in Wales in April.

Along with her diamond and pearl earrings, Queen Camilla accessorized with her diamond-and-sapphire butterfly brooch, one of several in her collection which also includes vintage and contemporary Van Cleef & Arpels designs.

Queen Camilla also owns several pieces she inherited from the late Queen Elizabeth II, adding an extra sentimental touch to her royal looks. Beneath the butterfly brooch, she added her Jockey Club Patron brooch embossed with H.M. (for Her Majesty) the Queen.

Queen Camilla’s last public outing before Wednesday was on July 22 at the RHS Sandringham Flower Show, where she was joined by husband King Charles III.
