Queen Camilla wore a beautiful dress with a significant brooch for today's outing in Canada.

King Charles and Queen Camilla travelled in a horse-drawn landau towards the Senate of Canada Building in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada today.


For the engagement, Camilla wore a navy blue crepe silk embroidered dress by Fiona Clare.

Clare is one of the Queen's favourite designers, with Camilla having chosen the brand several times for royal engagements.

The 77-year-old paired her dress with a navy blue hat by Philip Treacy.

In addition, Camilla carried a navy blue Chanel bag, along with Her Majesty's own Canadian Rifles brooch.

Camilla is the regiment’s colonel-in-chief, and her equerry in Canada is from the regiment.

The Queen paid tribute to her Canadian roots with her statement look, as her great-great-great-grandfather, Sir Allan Napier MacNab, was a top Canadian politician.

Sir Allan led the province of Canada as it was then known.

Queen Camilla sat and listened as her husband, King Charles, issued a speech in the Senate of Canada Building.

The King said: “Many Canadians are feeling anxious and worried about the drastically changing world around them.

"Canadians can give themselves far more than any foreign power on any continent can ever take away.

"And that by staying true to Canadian values, Canada can build new alliances and a new economy that serves all Canadians.”

The King and Queen are due to leave Canada today and return to the UK.

The trip was viewed as a whistlestop tour, designed to remind Canadians and the world that Charles is the King of Canada.
