The Princess Royal has begun a three-day visit to Crete and Athens, marking the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Crete during World War II. For her first engagement, Anne met with Greek President Konstantinos Tasoulas at the Presidential Mansion in the capital.
The 74-year-old royal paid homage to the Greek flag with her ensemble, wearing an elegant A-line dress in azure blue and white, complemented by a smart cropped jacket and white gloves. She accessorised with a gold ribbon brooch, first seen in February 1969 during a meeting with Apollo 8 commander Colonel Frank Borman at Buckingham Palace.
Anne opted for a coral red lipstick and her signature sophisticated updo, which framed dainty gold drop earrings. She carried a white clutch bag and wore white and gold loafers, completing a polished look. She is accompanied by her husband, Sir Tim Laurence, whom she married in December 1992.
