If you follow me on Twitter, you are well aware that I am a major fan of The Countess of Wessex. Sophie is elegant, beautiful and in my opinion, does not get nearly enough credit. It also doesn’t hurt that she is a former public relations pro, – us publicists have to stick together.
Altough a patronage announcement from The Countess of Wessex may not be considered breaking regal news, I’m taking advantage of any tidbit on her so I can finally dedicate a post to her. Yesterday, it was revealed that the the fashion forward wife of Prince Edward would become patron of the London College of Fashion. What is the big news surrounding the announcement? This is the first patronage for the LCF. Over the next three years, Sophie will work hand-in-hand with the school to promote its ‘Better Lives’ campaign, awarding scholarships, working female prisoners to get their fashion on and participating in projects with schoolchildren.
This patronage is a right royal fit for The Countess of Wessex – lots of little Sophie-inspired schoolchildren running around will not be a bad thing! Hopefully this news marks the first of many stories to come on the fabulous Sophie.
