The Duchess of Cornwall was all smiles as she hosted a reception for ‘Versus Arthritis’ at her home in Clarence House in London on Tuesday.
Camilla, 72, who is President of the Royal Osteoporosis Society and Patron of Versus Arthritis, looked very much the lady in red in a bold dress, which featured V neck detail and flowed into a pleated skirt.
She completed her look with a pair of black tights and, in a show of support for the organisation, pinned a badge to the left of her dress.
The duchess kept her jewellery subtle and added a touch of glamour with a pair of simple pearl-drop earrings and a dainty bracelet.
