Gorgeous in my opinion but it's £1700!!! Plus her arms are too toned.

Little house on the prairie meets gladiator sandals.

How much money to look so stupid?

namechange20050 · 05/05/2017 17:59

The dress is horrible! And she needs to lay off the sun beds.

P1nkP0ppy · 05/05/2017 18:00

I doubt that she paid full price anyway, may even have been loaned it?

JaneJeffer · 05/05/2017 18:08

I love the way Pippa dresses, she never looks too put together, a bit quirky. Her arms are great. He's very royal looking isn't he?

I wouldn't call the Middleton thighs big at all, quite the opposite.

Carolinethebrave · 05/05/2017 18:10

I think she looks great. She does in the flesh too, I know her a bit.

TheFaerieQueene · 05/05/2017 18:12

I think the dress looks nice but the shoes don't do it for me. A lovely photo of them both.

apotheke · 05/05/2017 18:18

Love the dress, it's fabulous and a bit quirky without being too out there. She really has overdone it a bit with her arms though, looks quite startling. Fiancé's not my type but they look happy so doesn't much matter what we all think!

eddiemairswife · 05/05/2017 18:21

It's the style that was fashionable when I was a teenager, and it was cheaper to make your own summer dresses.
I definitely don't care for the muscular arms.

NotYoda · 05/05/2017 18:23

Nice, but the frill at the hem almost ruins it

She's gone a bit Madonna with the working out. oOt my taste. I tend towards the cottage cheese look myself

NotYoda · 05/05/2017 18:23

Not , not 'oOt'

flumpybear · 05/05/2017 18:42

My daughter has a Similar dress From Next - albeit kids wear and it was about £30 if that!! And looked nicer too

MadameSzyszkoBohush · 05/05/2017 19:09

That's a really bad picture of him, I usually think he's quite attractive.
I agree it's a really weird hem.

MrsJamesMathews · 05/05/2017 19:09

I believe, on closer inspection, the dress is made with a heavy weight fabric featuring some intricate jacquard work, probably with silk. And plenty of hand sewn beads. I'm no dressmaker so just taking a stab!!

But I don't think from a quick glance at a photo you can fully appreciate the high quality of the dress. Regardless of design it is beautifully cut.

And the DoC has been wearing similar hems recently. It must be in fashion. Hmm

boovoo · 05/05/2017 19:18

Think they both look great. Would love to have her arms...!

dailystuck71 · 05/05/2017 19:42

She's done too much on her arms. Looking like madonna.

Oh he so SOOOOOOOOOO cute!!! Look at that face - I could just squish up and give him a big kiss. grin

Was just saying yesterday that his brother is much better looking, though I don't suppose she is marrying him for his looks.

I can't believe somebody said the Middletons have big thighs, have you seen Kate in her skinny jeans?

FluffyBathTowel · 05/05/2017 21:13

Toned thighs, yes. Big? Not by any stretch of the imagination.

SilverHawk · 05/05/2017 21:20

Please find those shoes, I love them!
WRT to how she looks, stop bitching, all brides look beautiful. I'm sure she is very stressy, thanks to Dsis Grin

SweetChickadee · 05/05/2017 21:23

I think he's one of those men who are much better in the flesh than photos - all twinkly eyes and disarming smile

I'm not a fan of that frock, just not my taste. Generally I think she always looks nice though.

The arms are amazing Grin

FluffyBathTowel · 05/05/2017 21:28

Here's the dress if anyone has a spare £1700. It looks better on Pippa than on the website imo

SilverHawk · 05/05/2017 21:49

Thanks Fluffy. I do like (love) them. Too high for me though Sad

SilverHawk · 05/05/2017 21:52

I still have a pair of sandals, very similar in style, with the zip up the back, so easy to wear.

toffeeboffin · 05/05/2017 21:52

Yup, cracks in the pavement due to her thunder thighs Hmm

And I don't think she's with him for his looks tbh.
