King Charles and Queen Camilla touched down in Sydney, Australia on October 18, kicking off his first visit there since he became monarch. The king, 75, and his wife, 77, are embarking on a royal tour that includes several days in Australia and Samoa.

“After a rest day at the beautiful Admiralty House, today Their Majesties will begin their first day of official engagements in Australia,” reads the caption of an Instagram post shared by @theroyalfamily on October 19. “The King and Queen will attend church this morning, before His Majesty visits the Parliament of New South Wales. See you there, Sydney!”

I noticed that her ensemble looked familiar. After doing some digging, I realized that her dress seems to be the same one that she was wearing in a projection on the Opera House. (At first glance, I thought King Charles was also wearing the same outfit in the photo that he’s wearing in the projection. Upon closer inspection, it does appear to be different.) Fans gathered around the iconic landmark as giant photographs of the royals from their previous visits to Australia were displayed.
Could they have snapped these pics right after landing in Australia for the projection specifically? Or did they plan to wear the same clothes as they did for the portraits that were released with the official announcement of the tour?
