Not keen on that at all. Also - looks hot for this weather, even if your arms are out!

Placemarking as enjoyed the other thread more than I expected 😬

Quantumblue · 17/07/2018 12:41

Hmmm she really likes things that are too big body skimming doesn't she?

WipsGlitter · 17/07/2018 12:59

I really do not like that dress. It looks bulky, stub and uncomfortable.

whathappenedtomyusername · 17/07/2018 13:12

I really like it.

halfwitpicker · 17/07/2018 13:20

Ah good one, queen, thanks for starting a new one! Here's to many more Wine

Now back to the fashion.

What is that shocking pink thing she's wearing today? Shock

halfwitpicker · 17/07/2018 13:21

Isn't it like 30 degrees in London today? She must be boiled. Or moth - eckened as my grandmother would have said.

halfwitpicker · 17/07/2018 13:23

It's the wrong colour, shape and style. Doesn't flatter her enviable figure (sorry, sound like the DM)

She should wear a plum coloured shift pencil dress with bronze heels.

DonkeysDontRideBicycles · 17/07/2018 13:35

Looks bulky on her but I like the colour. Not on her though. (Sorry your Grace).

RosinaAlmaviva · 17/07/2018 14:04

Interesting take on the coat-dress but again the fit looks to be off. It's very bulky round the waist but Meghan does favour bathrobe-style coats. I don't think they do much for her.

On the plus side, I like the millennial pink and the colour blocking - the dress, shoes and bag are all well matched. Meghan's makeup is pretty and I note the return of the "messy bun, getting things done" vibe for less formal engagements.

I hadn't heard about the exhibition so glad to find out about it.

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/07/2018 14:21

Also... no tights!

I’m a bit meh about meghan’s Sleeveless raincoat dress thing today.
Beige again. I’m sure it’s v.fashionable, but not to my taste.
Liked Harry in the pale colours.

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/07/2018 15:32

I think it's a very pale pink rather than beige.

PrincessPear · 17/07/2018 15:38

I don’t like it, but then I like more conservative styles like Kate wears!

SenecaFalls · 17/07/2018 15:54

Also... no tights

American women tend to stay away from pantyhose tights, if at all possible, especially in the summer. Melania didn't wear tights when she met the queen last week.

On the blog upthread, the Nonie dress has a more defined a-line skirt on the promo material; some how it looks like a too big column dress on Meghan.

beanaseireann · 17/07/2018 16:01

In the Daily Mail comments section on celebrities at Wimbledon somebody was giving out about Camilla and her inappropriate lace dress - did she think she was going to a drinks reception or some such ?
Only it wasn't Camilla it was Gill Brook wife of Phillip Brook who is in charge of Wimbledon and she probably was hosting numerous drinks receptions for the VIPs.

Not sure about Meghan 's dress. I quite like it in the full length shot, but close up all the detail looks fussy.

I like her clutch bag, altho' I couldn't be doing with a clutch myself, I like to have my hands free.

OuchLegoHurts · 17/07/2018 16:10

I love it. But then I hate Kate's boring clothes, I think they're old before her time

SleepingStandingUp · 17/07/2018 16:29

It looks much better on the model, it looks like they had a quick fumble in the back of the car and she didn't have time to retie it properly

evilharpy · 17/07/2018 16:41

Meghan’s mac dress thing is awful :(

Love her very simple bangle though.

Clionba · 17/07/2018 17:23

I don't like sleeveless macs, they don't look right, somehow. I wish she'd wear something in a more vibrant colour! She looked happy and relaxed, though, as did Harry.

QueenOfTheAndals · 17/07/2018 17:35

@beanaseireann That's hilarious! A few weeks ago I was at the roof garden in John Lewis and genuinely thought I saw Camilla. Upon closer inspection it wasn't of course, but maybe it was Gill Brook!

The only thing worth a mention is her bangle. The rest of her was, as usual, Beige. Not surprised anymore.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 17/07/2018 18:59

Jury is out on the sleeveless raincoat dress. I’ve noticed these belted outfits She wears just do not sit right on her body for some reason.
