Queen Camilla and Sarah Jessica Parker Visit New York Public Library
After attending a memorial for 9/11, Queen Camilla made a special solo trip to the New York Public Library, where she was joined by actress Sarah Jessica Parker. This visit was historic, as it was the first time a member of the royal family had set foot in the library since it opened. Parker looked elegant in a white polka-dot midi dress and a pale pink animal-print coat, finished off with vibrant pink pumps. Queen Camilla chose a custom navy dress and coat by Fiona Clare, paired with the Queen Mother’s brooch and stylish leather pumps. They met with literary icons like Anna Wintour and Brian Bannon, and later attended a gala for The King’s Trust alongside stars like Donatella Versace and Grace Coddington.
