Meghans Dress

[honeylou42]

What do we all think ? I think it was sensational very classy and stylish

Evening wedding dress

I loved the dress, especially the bracelet length sleeves. The veil, tiara (OMG, that tiara!!!) and jewelry made it amazing

I read that the lace makers had to wash their hands every 30 mins to ensure that the veil was completely white....And then it trailed around the chapel and down the steps...!!!

Meghan did curtsy to the Queen but BBC coverage didn’t catch it.

Much prefer the evening dress.

The dress reminds me of this sixties one by Balenciaga from 1960. Clean lines, and all in the cutting.

@Graphista me too... it's stunning

Classic, simple elegance. I also adore her party dress.

Some of the comments re. the Givenchy are so funny and more than a little clueless! It's not ill-fitting. It's not too loose. It's supposed to skim the body. Anything tighter would crease when she was in the car, and kneeling during the ceremony. This is how a proper couture dress fits.
I loved its simplicity, and how the hand-embroidered veil with the flora of the all the Commonwealth nations took centre stage along with that fabulous Queen Mary bandeau tiara.
A dress this simple and elegant is notoriously difficult to create, and I think it's mission accomplished.

It's a far far more elegant dress than Kate's, I think the best royal wedding dress since Princess Margaret's.

Love her Stella evening gown too. Perfect.

Sophisticated and graceful. I loved it.
She looked so beautiful 👸💂

I love the wedding dress, simple and clean. I agree with a pp anything else and it would have been critised as too Hollywood, too extravagant, upstaging Kate etc. She looked beautiful.

The evening dress is stunning, she has played it perfectly.

She’s such a stunning woman that she looked beautiful - I loved her hair and make up. I think though that she looked beautiful in spite of the dress as opposed to more beautiful because of it. My personal preference is for a wedding dress to be a special once in a life time dress and for me, this wasn’t a particularly special dress. Not horrible by any stretch but just a bit bland to me.

The overall effect with the veil and tiara was stunning, I just was hoping for a bit more from the dress.

And the evening dress is incredible!

I thought she looked beautiful.
The dress was stylish and elegant.
She looked natural.
I thought it was a great choice. The colour suited her too.
Then again I am not a fan of strapless wedding gowns.

Her dress is very similar to Audrey Hepburn’s Givenchy

I was a bit underwhelmed by the dress, it was just a bit too plain for me and didn't have any wow factor. But I think the overall effect was VERY classy and appropriate, and she looked very pretty. Loved the veil!

The evening dress is gorgeous. She looks stunning.

Apparently she did her hair and makeup herself and I have to say, it shows.

Nonsense, she looked perfect.

brides done by wedding hair dressers tend to look really scary. anyway, if you wear makeup surely you do it yourself? an actress would be an expert.

really nice not to see horrible red lipstick and a thick mask of slap. she looked real, and pretty.

I would stress that it looks like the mockup due to the colour, where she may not have had a choice. plain dead white is dull, but covering it in horrible lace or frills would have been awful.

basically wedding gowns often look ridiculous. this one didnt. result!

I thought it was beautiful - just right. I'm shocked at those saying it was ill fitting.

I thought it was nice and had a pretty neckline but could have perhaps been improved by a slim belt which in some way echoed the design of the tiara, as it was a little plain. Overall though it suited her and Harry thought she looked amazing so that's all that really matters!

I thought it was absolutely stunning and what I loved was that its plainness set off her own natural beauty. It made her look luminous, radiant. I didn't even notice the tiara.

I didn't think the tiara matched the dress at all. The dress was quite structural, almost angular at the neckline so really needed a more contemporary tiara. Ideally, something properly Art Deco, which her one from the 1930s really wasn't.

I know she was going for elegant, but the dress was too plain for such a dramatic setting. It's the sort of wedding dress that Cos would sell. But she looked radiant and so, so happy

Harry looked like he needed a haircut

She looked absolutely stunning. Classic, elegant and very natural. Thought it was perfect for her.

@SirVixofVixHall I’d love to know who the woman in pink was, her dress was gorgeous!
