Starting a thread to discuss what everyone wore and importantly if we like it.

Will there be another hatgate ?

Catherine Kelly arrived looking very slim not sure on the orange hat.

My prediction is cream dress fitted simple clingy more sexy than s Kates.

Very pretty dress, if very conservative. She looked lovely. Agree that Sophie Wessex looked lovely, and Natalie Pinkham's dress is stunning and so simple. Surprised at Kate wearing cream - faux pas?

"Princess Anne dressed with her characteristic disregard for modern fashion" Smile

Kate's dress much too old for her - looked more mother of the bride, and like the sort of thing you used to get in crimplene. Bea's hair looked like it needed washing - greasy roots. And were those beige nude court shoes absolutely compulsory - did it say on the invite? Given that every female guest there seemed to be wearing them.

Zara looked lovely, I love her she's so refreshing. You'd think Mike might have got his nose done though. Must snore something terrible. Correct about Anne and the curtains, although her skirt is unintentionally fashionable. You just know she grabbed something from the depths of her wardrobe after coming in from mucking out the horses. And the same old up-do.

Yes RickGhastley (great name!) - her tiara was absolutely STUNNING!

Zara looked lovely and I just love the fact that the Duchess of Cambridge wears clothes more than once. Not her best look by still attractive.

Glad to see Princess Ann has embraced the midi-pleated skirt - quite fashion forward for her Wink

I love the fact that Anne neither knew nor cared if she was 'on trend'. She manages to carry it off in her own way. I met her once, and she has a definite aura of style, of something.

So many guests in nearly identical shoes (nude courts with a little platform). Are slightly lengthened legs really worth it?

I really love the length of the other wise OTT cream one shoulder dress on the Corrie lady.

LOVE the bride's dress, and Kate's hat. Beatrice looked ok, but her hat looked like a satellite dish. Eugenie a bit hefty for her outfit.

Oh, and enough with the nude shoes already.

Nude shoes are the worst like 1970s shop window mannequin feet and always look HUGE

MrsCampbellBlack · 30/07/2011 21:23

Oh I like a nude shoe but have teeny feet. And don't wear with 'glossy' tights

Kate looks like an enormous Pringle has alighted on her head.

I love Zara, the tiara was beautiful ,touch of the Greek key pattern,
loved the dress far more than Kate's
thought Una looked bit cheap, and her shoes looked too big; Eugenie's jacket made her look preggers, and was her skirt altered badly or just too small for her thighs?
agree red dress lovely, anne shouldve gone for pink shoes not nude,
dont like the side on inverted hats; thought that woman in the massive orange hat was brave yet she wouldve annoyed me if it was my wedding.
Maybe Mike will wish he had fixed his nose, looks quite bad on some of the pics, apparently Anne was moaning at him to do it.
Beatrice looked ok, turquoise-y looked good with her red hair.

I don't hate nude shoes but prefer the plain leather to the patent...hate nude patents.

WhipMeIndiana · 30/07/2011 21:48

this reminds me of a very jilly cooper-esque wedding, Zara looks really erm...dirty with her foxy toothy grin, and Mike is def. a big old hunk.
and sophie wessex is like that dreadful woman who had Hopey hanging in her bedchamber... the petite blonde gobby woman...
