Princess Anne has a unique sense of style that never fails to amaze, especially when it comes to weddings.
Ditching traditional muted tones that are favoured by the likes of Princess Kate and Queen Camilla, the Princess Royal often steps out in bold, colour-clashing ensembles that ensure she stands out among the crowds. We're talking tartan, florals and more – take a look at Anne's best wedding guest dresses over the years…

She was pictured in a knee-length frock with a ruffle hem and a yellow floral print teamed with a lemon hat and quilted clutch.

Not only did Sarah Ferguson and Pippa Middleton step out in various hues, but Anne rocked a forest green knee-length frock covered with pale green swirls that continued on her jacket. Glamorous black gloves and a cream shawl finished off her ensemble.
What has Princess Anne said about her fashion sense?
Princess Anne previously admitted that she learnt to focus on her "style" from her late mother Queen Elizabeth.
"The Queen and I had a discussion the other day about the difference between fashion and style and I think maybe that’s relevant in the sense that she didn’t do fashion but she certainly does style, and style tends to last longer," she told Women’s Weekly.
"You have an individual style and it’s a quality which has a long-term value."
The Queen's dresser Angela Kelly also revealed that the Queen loved colour – something that Anne may have inherited from her mother. "Color is key! Though—the chosen color must suit," Angela wrote in her 2019 book The Other Side of The Coin: The Queen, The Dresser and The Wardrobe.
