Royal seal of approval! The Queen and a VERY sprightly Prince Philip meet winners at the star-studded Guard's Polo Club just a stone's throw from Windsor Castle

  • Lady Violet, 24, and Lady Alice, 23, donned their finery for Cartier Queen's Cup
  • The siblings, whose father is the Duke of Rutland, wore daring fashion choices
  • Their parents are David and Emma Manners, Duke and Duchess of Rutland 

 

Polo fans enjoyed a brush with royalty today when the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh made an appearance at Windsor Great Park.

The 92-year-old monarch and her husband presented trophies to the winners of Cartier Queen's Cup at Guard's Polo Club on Sunday.

The Queen looked resplendent in a powder blue coat, featuring intricate white floral embroidery, and a matching hat - carrying her signature Launer handbag.

Meanwhile Philip, who retired from public duties last year, looked to be in remarkably good health after the 97-year-old recently recovered from a hip operation in April.

The couple joined a host of society beauties including Lady Violet and Lady Alice Manners, Lady Mary Charteris and Lady Sabrina Percy, who donned their finery for a day at the polo.

The prestigious polo show, held annually, is named in Her Majesty's honour and attracts guests from society's highest echelons.

The event is one of the top five polo tournaments in the world - attracting the biggest names in the game and their impressive pony power. 

The Manners sisters, whose father is the Duke of Rutland, turned heads with Violet - known as 'Vi' - wearing an eye-catching tasselled dress with a mustard skirt and teamed with a leather biker jacket.

Alice donned a black polka dot dress offering a flash of thigh and retro cat's eye shades.

Look lovely in florals like Lily wearing Johanna Ortiz

Acting royalty joined real-life royalty for the Guard's Polo Club event on Sunday as Jenna Coleman and Lily Collins rubbed shoulders with the Queen and Prince Philip.

Lily stood out from the crowd in vintage florals and a straw fascinator, which was easily our favorite look from the day. Her dress is by Johanna Ortiz, and from the FW18 collection. The designers instantly recognizable florals cascade down the maxi dress which also work frill detailing, a cutout bodice, and belted waist to highlight the figure.

The Queen was giving out awards at the event and we can all agree here at Fashion Finder that Lily should've got one for this flawless look.

The dress is available to pre-order now at Saks Fifth Avenue (click right) or, if you can't wait until later this year, shop look-a-likes in the edit below. From hot picks at ASOS to a botanical beauty by Yumi Kim, we've covered every budget!

The society sisters, neither of whom went to university, have gained something of a reputation as party girls although both work.
