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.

It's a little bit My Fair Lady.

MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:13

Unkind to say Eugenie needs a bra intervention. She has a spinal deformity called scoliosis.

NotYoda · 20/06/2017 16:13

And I know it's not the done thing, to mention it but she's sooooo thiiiiin

GrouchyKiwi · 20/06/2017 16:16

I like Zara's hat the most, but they all look lovely and the men dapper.

The photo of Zara hugging Prince Philip is very sweet.

WipsGlitter · 20/06/2017 16:19

I meant Bea (black dress) needs the bra intervention.

Wait. I'm confusing them. Eugenie is in the black dress. Didn't know that about her spine. Apologies.

Let's be honest, Kate would look good in a bin bag. I do wish she would dress a little younger though, I always think Sophie & Camilla look better as they dress appropriately for their age.

ButterflyFree · 20/06/2017 16:22

Her Majesty looks resplendent as always. I love the colour palette she chooses for her outfits. I hope I'm halfway as fabulous in my 90s!

Yvetteballs · 20/06/2017 16:23

Haven't clicked on but Kate is always well put together. I do think she should give in to letting someone else do her make up. Her heavy blusher could be applied better.

MikeUniformMike · 20/06/2017 16:25

I think she looks absolutely lovely. I thought No first but it suits her and she looks happy. Sophie always looks terrific. Prince Andrew's daughters look like they're Prince Andrew's daughters and they have not been blessed with the tall slim model-proportioned figures of Kate and Sophie. They look like they might be fun though.

Princess Anne has her own style and she really pulls it off.

The Queen really is a trooper isn't she. She is really is amazing considering her age, and poor Prince Philip looks so frail, bless him.

Beatrice is wearing a pastel dress, Eugenie is in the black.

BadTasteFlump · 20/06/2017 16:27

Nobody with boobs that big should wear a dress like the one Beatrice is wearing - good bra or not it just gives you a boob shelf.

Sophie Windsor (Big Suze) looks amazing. Imo the rest of the royals look frumpy by comparison.

LeannePerrins · 20/06/2017 16:27

Worth pointing out that at fifty-two Sophie is nearly twenty years older than Kate and more than holds her own.

MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:27

I love that picture of Will and Kate having a little flirt. He's still got it in my book almost old enough to be his mother

BadTasteFlump · 20/06/2017 16:27

Oops ok meant Eugenie then...

MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:32

Sophie Windsor looks fab but a maxi is all wrong in the Royal Enclosure. It's considered a bit naff and attention-seeking unless you're in your national costume eg saris or kimonos.

Sophie Wessex really found her style in middle age. Hope for me yet Grin.

sodablackcurrant · 20/06/2017 16:33

I shouldn't, but I love looking at the dresses and the clobber at events like this.

Camilla looks great for a woman of her years. Her dresses always seem to be free flowing and not fitted much which is something I like. Have you noticed that?

Kate Middleton/Windsor, now I'm sorry, dresses too old for her years, and IMO her outfit today is like something from the Stepford Wives.

I love the matching tiger outfits on some anonymous couple!

I couldn't say any of the dresses had that WOW factor at all. Boo hoo for me.

LeannePerrins · 20/06/2017 16:34

I really like Beatrice's dress but those full-length sleeves are making me feel a bit faint, knowing what the temperatures were like at Ascot today.

BreezyBreeze · 20/06/2017 16:36

Trucking and user - the press quite rightly comments on what Harry, William, Charles have to say.

Why does it always have to be what women wear?

I love clothes but jeez it's not equality.

Would help if the royal women used their platform to say or do something. Threads like this fuel this inequality.

Vintagegoth · 20/06/2017 16:36

Agree with BadTasteFlump, Big Suze looks the best and the most comfortable. Winner!

Abra1d · 20/06/2017 16:37

Sophie isn't wearing a maxi.

Do you think Kate gets it "right" compare to other royals?
MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:38

Abra Sophie Windsor is Frederick Windsor's wife (and Claudia Winkleman's sister).

MMXV · 20/06/2017 16:39

Sophie Wessex is in the green dress

Abra1d · 20/06/2017 16:39

Oh ok, sorry! Wrong Sophie W.

BadTasteFlump · 20/06/2017 16:39

We were referring to Lady Sophie Windsor Abra
