... To be reminded of Anne Boleyn by duchess of C's pic today?

And to wonder if that is not a look best avoided?

I think you have to have an excellent bum to pull off a narrowly AND bias cut dress as well as she did. IN WHITE.

I think there was also a frisson because Pippa was a bridesmaid at a royal wedding in Westminster Abbey and the dress was kinda slinky and you could see the arse. Not under layers of tulle or heavy satin. When she bent down to deal with the train, badda boom!

I never got all the fuss about Pippa's bum.
Her dress was too fussy yesterday.

Agree with pigs I often read the fawning from the media re celebrities looks etc and I think Wtf? I think the glow of celebrity/royalty is what people find attractive rather than the individual themselves, If they were normal people wandering around Tesco no one would give most of them a second glance! I would give Meghan a second glance though even if she was not famous, she is a very good looking woman, she passes my Teso test!

I think that is why is was private and not for public viewing, right?

You can take photos of joe public outside the church after a baptism, in any town up and down the UK. No difference. People are just interested. It's no harm.

Yes, definitely! There are also some astonishingly good looking famous people of course, and I agree Meghan Markle is one.

Today I think I understand the reason why Kate mostly picks the good ol' dress coat ala Her Maj. If you don't, you end up with this kind of look.

[Disclaimer, yes she's beautiful but that dress does not hold up well to photographic scrutiny. Is that a bodice-style boob holder thing rather than a bra? It's just not a good look.]

I also thought very Tudor - she looked beautiful and I bet there are commercial milliners preparing versions of that for high street shops now. A relief from those hackneyed feather facinators or the upside down acorn cup effect ones that Meghan seemed to favour for a while.

Kate looked beautiful, perfectly dressed and genuinely happy.

I think it’s a strapless bra and I don’t quite understand how she didn’t realise her dress was too small across the bust. They must surely have a mirror where she’s staying.

I think she’s channelling her inner Elizabeth taylor

Flora, you'd think that, wouldn't you?

Or her inner Queen Mum @Dowser!

What a load of nasty bitchy comments.

Is it just "soooper funnnnnyyy" to mock this woman - what happened to the "let's build each other up not knock each other down".
I suppose that only applies unless you want a cheap laugh at someone else's expense and to impress your "friends" online.

So what if she's in the public eye. I am sure she has fucking feelings.
I can just imagine those making nasty comments being the mean girls from school - that is tragic, not this woman's hat or dress sense.

I think she's stunning. I guess she always wears a strapless bra because she favours a boat neckline? How do other people wear bras with that sort of neckline? I like my shoulders, but am hourglass in shape and daren't ware a strapless bra.

I think it's just a touch too snug in the bust. If it wasn't so tight then the bra would pass unnoticed. It's a lovely dress, just the fit that's slightly off.

What is my iPad on??!
Hatshepsut? Should say That’s!
