10/10 I loved it! Elegant, tasteful, beautiful. She looked so nervous in the ceremony as you would!

SaggyHairyArse · 29/04/2011 21:37

It is very 'Grace Kelly' but then Katemay have said she wanted something like that, the designer would have listened to what the bride wanted too and not designed something purely to make a fashion statement. I think Kate must have had an influence as she seemed very comfortale in her dress and looks a million dollars :)

CristinaTheAstonishing · 29/04/2011 21:45

5/10 for the dress. Dull and a bit Barbie-like (big bottom, thin waist, big head).

10/10

exoticfruits · 29/04/2011 21:58

I would love to see a photo of some of the posters-what exactly does someone like CristinaTheAstonishing look like herself-hopefully lives up to her name to be so critical!

shockers · 29/04/2011 21:58

I thought the whole thing was beautiful [csmile] But I'm just a big ol softie who loves a proper wedding... with real love n all that[csmile]

(leetle bit drunk after our street party, but I did wipe away a tear during the ceremony when I was sober as a judge)

CristinaTheAstonishing · 29/04/2011 22:02

Exoticfruits - what's your problem? I didn't like the dress. I thought it dull and I thought the whole shape didn't work, looked like my DD's Barbie doll dresses. So?

mathanxiety · 29/04/2011 22:08

Is that a housecoat Camilla is wearing in the evening dress photo?

exoticfruits · 29/04/2011 22:10

I can understand thinking it dull and Barbie like-not my opinion- but we are all different. I just don't know where you get big bottom etc-I would love that figure!

CristinaTheAstonishing · 29/04/2011 22:13

Exoticfruits - the bloody dress had a big bottom, not the bride. It had loads of pleats. The shape didn't work for me. I'm not criticising the bride, I think she's pretty.

diddl · 29/04/2011 22:15

Any pics of Pippa´s dress for the evening?

albania · 29/04/2011 22:17

Pippa's evening dress

exoticfruits · 29/04/2011 22:18

Sorry Cristina Blush

diddl · 29/04/2011 22:19

Oh, that´s lovely.

I thought that Kate would go for that sort of fit/shape for the evening.

I always loved that pink one that she wore once at a charity do(?)

FellatioNels0n · 29/04/2011 22:20

If I'm going to be picky I agree it had slightly too pointy nipples, and the skirt was a trifle staid, but overall I thought it was absolutely beautiful. 9 and 3/4 out of 10.

CristinaTheAstonishing · 29/04/2011 22:21

Exoticfruits - don't worry :) I didn't watch any of the wedding today, just now going through threads and clicking on links to dresses etc. It's still all fresh for me. I can't believe people got so much into it. I think I'll watch some WWII programme on telly instead.

cherryburton · 29/04/2011 22:31

7/10 - it was lovely apart from the lacey bits. She did look lovely though. Agree re the nipples though, bit odd!

oohlaalaa · 29/04/2011 23:02

It was a nice enough dress, but I did not think it quite fitted properly around the bust?

If I'm honest, it was Pippa's dress that made my heart flutter. I would love to get married in Pippa's dress (with her figure).

moshchops · 29/04/2011 23:18

I am so glad I wasn't the only one who thought The Princess' Beatroot and Eugenie looked like the ugly sisters in this pantomime! Gosh, but they will look back and cringe at their awful hats, and Eugenie's dress words fail me, (Bea's dress wasn't too bad!)

muminthemiddle · 29/04/2011 23:23

I thought she looked elegant and beautiful. So glad she didn't go for a strapless affair.
The best wedding dress I have seen in ages.

AnnieLobeseder · 29/04/2011 23:30

Those nipples are out again in the evening dress. What's going on!?!? Confused

oohlaalaa · 29/04/2011 23:48

i agree AnnieLobeseder. I was distracted by her pointy boobs too.

Tortington · 29/04/2011 23:49
