On Tuesday, the Duchess of Edinburgh was spotted with Amina Priscille Longoh, the Minister of State for Women and Child Protection for Chad during her solo visit.
Duchess Sophie, 59, was seen wearing an unexpected lime green dress - the 'Brooke' style from Amanda Ross x Soler London. The royal made a subtle tweak to the satin number, swapping the crew neck for a flattering V-shaped style.
Prince Edward 's wife also changed the blue waistband for a metallic belt with a chunky reflective buckle.
Translated to English, the Chadian politician penned: "I had the pleasure of sharing a Chadian coffee this morning with Her Royal Highness, Sophie the Duchess of Edinburgh who is staying in Chad.
"We discussed her commitment to women's rights and children's education, especially in times of crisis," she continued. "She wanted to pay tribute to Chad in coordinating the response to refugees and especially the hospitality and resilience of the host communities."
The Duchess is visiting the African country with Unicef representatives. At the beginning of the trip, she was moved to tears having met with refugees who had fled the civil war in Sudan.
Prior to the visit, Sophie stepped out on a number of outings wearing printed looks. On 4 October, the Duchess spoke with members of the 5th Battalion, The Rifles during a medal presentation ahead of their homecoming parade, after a six-month deployment in Estonia, at Picton Barracks in Wiltshire.
She was seen wearing a pink and khaki floral dress from Erdem with a collared neckline and three-quarter-length sleeves. The designer number was teamed with the 'Rosalia' heels from Jimmy Choo.
The classic ensemble was teamed with a duck egg blue satin shirt and the on-trend 'Ixia 80' burgundy patent pumps from Jimmy Choo which had her looking like an autumnal It-girl.
