Fuchsia Lightweight Coat with White Trim and Matching Straw Hats

This outfit is comprised of a block-colour fuchsia lightweight cover up with large white trimming
and a white and fuchsia silk dress with a geometric pattern. Two hats go with this outfit, both made of fuchsia straw; one is a toadstoll trimmed with a large fuchsia silk rose and white feathers, the other has a partially upturned brim and is trimmed with white and fuchsia bow loops and two fuchsia quills.

The Queen wore this ensamble with the first hat on 15 May 2008, on a visit to Kabatas School in Istanbul, before embarking on a boat trip down the river Bosphorus during a State visit to Turkey. An unidentified floral brooch was used:


The second hat debuted the following year on the second day of Royal Ascot, on 17 June 2009. This time the Queen wore the Cullinan V brooch:
