Camel Hair Coat with Fur Cuffs and Two Hats

The Queen has two hats to go with this camel hair coat with beige fur cuffs, a camel hat with a large central bow and a fur hat that matches the cuffs.

First time we saw this look was back on 25 December 2005, when the Queen wore it to church at St Mary Magdalene on the Sandringham Estate. The camel hat was chosen, alongside the Frosted Sunflower brooch (not visible in the photo below):


The following year, on 7 March 2006, the ensamble came out again when the Queen wore it to welcome President Lula of Brasil to London at the start of his State visit to the UK:


As is usual with this sort of engagements, we got a clear view of the dress that goes with this look, when the Queen removed her coat once inside Buckingham Palace. A floral brooch in the shape of a diamond rose can be seen:


About a month later, on 12 April 2006, at Prince Harry's passing out Sovereign's Parade at Sandhurst Military Academy, the camel hat was again in use, together with the diamond Jardine Star brooch:




On 7 March 2008, the ensamble was worn again for a visit to St Thomas Community Primary School in Swansea, Wales, accessorised with the yellow gold Frosted Sunflower brooch:


Then, on 24 February 2009, the Queen attended the unveiling of the National Memorial to Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother in London, choosing a glamourous fur hat and one of her mother's favourite brooches, the Courtauld-Thomson Scallop-Shell:


More recently, on 2 February 2015, the look, once again accessorised with the Jardine Star brooch, was repeated for the formal opening of the new South Lynn Fire Station in King's Lynn, Norfolk:


On 22 January 2017, the Queen repeated the look to attend the Sunday morning church service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham (Daily Mail article here). She wore the yellow gold Singapore Peranakan Diamond Jubilee brooch, an official gift from the President of Singapore:
