Do you think Kate gets it "right" compare to other royals?

Needless to say its a DM link

Do you think Kate looks the most stylish? I think Sophie looks lovely, great colour and lovely hat. I think Kate has an advantage as she is very slim / toned but not sure if her dress is actually the nicest. I think she also gets all her stuff made to measure / altered so it fits her better.

Bea and Zara's have got very crushed which makes them look less polished. Autumn Phillips looks nice but can only just see her!

Eugenie's is a no from me! too frou frou.

She doesn't always get it right, but she is basically a stylish, well-put- together woman...and yes, it helps enormously that she is tall and slim.

I like her conservative day style, but I'd love to see her being slightly edgier with her evening wear. She has the figure for it.

ThreeForAPound · 20/06/2017 15:35

And yes, she is definitely the best styled of the lot, but probably has the most help!

Dailystuck71 · 20/06/2017 15:42

I think she definitely looks most polished.

Sophie a close second

Zara I suspect doesn't give a shit and I like that.

Bea and Eugeinie just don't seem to get it right which is sad. They both have great figures.

Sophie and HM look incredible, I much prefer their bright colours and vibrancy to Kate's pale cream (which she seems to wear regularly).

That old Camilla gal always gives good hat. She never looks rumpled, either, which helps.

heateallthebuns · 20/06/2017 15:44

Yeah she's perfect I want to be her when I grow up.

WipsGlitter · 20/06/2017 15:45

Camilla is fab. She's found her look and it really works for her.

Eugenie
Get a proper bra!
They all look fab.

NiteFlights · 20/06/2017 15:47

Her outfit there is gorgeous. She looks very good in pale colours and with her hair up. I think her natural style is a bit boring, but she usually looks good - sometimes fantastic. . I really detest those wedge espadrilles she wears sometimes - Pippa wears them too - a closed toe shoe should not have a wedge!

I think Sophie Wessex is quite stylish generally. The Duchess of Cornwall usually looks great - she knows what suits her.

Princess Eugenie is beautiful but she doesn't often dress very well.

All the Royal women seem to have decent legs and hair, which is a big help!

God they must be BAKING Shock

AdalindSchade · 20/06/2017 15:49

I don't like Kate's style much but she does rock that white lace.
Eugenia needs a better bra. She could look amazing in something edgy and well cut. I bet she would look awesome in Vivienne Westwood.

2014newme · 20/06/2017 15:49

Eugenie needs a bra intervention
Kates hat is very frumpy

2014newme · 20/06/2017 15:50

Yes must be roasting! All of them!

WipsGlitter · 20/06/2017 15:53

Eugenie definitely needs a bra intervention!

And totally boiling.

They do all look like they're having lots of fun with each other though.

Duchess of Cornwall all the way for me - except the necklace which looks a bit old-fashioned. I would definitely want to wear something loose and light coloured and she's managed that without sacrificing duchessly elegance!

BreezyBreeze · 20/06/2017 15:54

I've said it a million times but until a similar article is written about the princes I will not click.

Im more interested in what they say and do.

Which is disappointing so far too. Come on princesses lets hear an opinion on something.

Oblomov17 · 20/06/2017 15:55

Kate sometimes looks old before her years.

They all have lovely figures. And presumably lots of help!

mellowbean · 20/06/2017 15:58

Kate's clothes are horrible with the exception of her winter coats.

Even though her clothes are made to measure they sometimes gap at the hip or waist making her look like she's lost even more weight.

Truckingalong · 20/06/2017 16:04

Breezy, I'm with you but the blokes don't have the same variety and choice of outfits, so there's not a lot to comment on.

Kate looks incredible at ascot today. She has a fabulous figure and amazing legs and can wear almost anything and look good.

bunnybleu · 20/06/2017 16:04

I thought they must all be boiling in those outfits today, the men included!

I like a lot of what Kate wears generally, but I often think she gets it wrong somehow and I can't put my finger on why. I think she dresses too old/formally for her age, and I don't think the high necks she seems to go for help (although that could be because I don't like them on me!) I just think that so often her outfit is lovely apart from 'something'

Camilla usually gets it right I think.

As for the men, I did pity them dressed up in full uniform for Trooping the Colour the other day!

bunnybleu · 20/06/2017 16:05

Oh and I agree about Eugenie, crikey today's outfit doesn't flatter her ample bosom!

UsernameInvalid66 · 20/06/2017 16:05

Breezy I think you're right in theory, but the men don't show much variety - maybe if they did, the press would have to start taking notice of them!

2014newme · 20/06/2017 16:06

Ample bosom is right, she's wearing her boobs in her waist

She looks like a crinoline loo roll holder Grin

Madbengalmum · 20/06/2017 16:09

I do like Eugenie's dress with the right bra though.

MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:09

My elderly neighbour uses the same couturier as Camilla.

You'll never see this in the press (because it's easier for Clarence House to make Kate look like the expensive high-maintenance one rather than the notorious adulteress next Queen), but Camilla's clothing is very expensive indeed. Those coats she wears are £5000k each. The hats about £900.
