Unfortunately, I lack reliable information on this lightweight mottled silk suit, floral print on fuchsia pink background. The only picture I was able to locate of the complete outfit is the one shown below of the Queen boarding a plane, unfortunately I don't know when or where it was taken. The style of hat and the use of cream leather accessories, which is very rare these days, make me guess we're looking at a late 1990/early 2000s photo:
On 1 July 1997, Canada Day, the Queen wore the suit at Aberdeen Pavilion in Ottawa, during a royal tour of Canada. The airplane photo and this one were taken at different times, as you can tell the hat is a different style:
Anyway, the Queen chose to wear the dress again on 21 June 2016, when she was photographed sending her second ever tweet (you can find it here) to thank her followers for the well wishes on her 90th birthday, from the official Twitter account of the Royal Family (Daily Mail article here). She wore no brooch:
