Princess Eugenie's wedding: The sartorial highs and lows. Plus Fergie's back, bitches!

Following on from the general royal style thread, which is fast filling up, here's one just to discuss today's outfits.

My predictions

I’m really hoping Fergie will look fabulous - <a class="break-all" href="http://go.mumsnet.com/?xs=1&id=470X1554755&url=goo.gl/images/Ex3BbE" target="_blank">teal or <a class="break-all" href="http://go.mumsnet.com/?xs=1&id=470X1554755&url=goo.gl/images/oiAQaV" target="_blank">forest green look good on her.

After Kate's recent trip to the V&A, I’m hoping for something a bit more adventurous than a pale blue or yellow coat dress. Sophie in blue or pink Wickstead, Meghan in navy and/or boat-neck. She and Victoria Beckham may end up in similar outfits.

The Queen in fuchsia, neon green or yellow, Ladies Sarah and Helen in something elegant and understated, Karen Spencer in a dress that’s spectacular but so tight she can’t breathe.

And of course Princess Anne in a dress she's owned since 1986 that still fits her perfectly!

I'm watching This Morning and also guests arriving on the Sun on YouTube.

peridito · 12/10/2018 09:31

Were the high winds not forecast ? Seem to have caught out 99% of attendees .

As does the showing of invitations .

Butterymuffin · 12/10/2018 09:33

Hmm, ITV is spending a lot of its time not showing guests arriving.
Next - happy couple interview
9.45 Andrew interview Confused
10.00 BGT at the wedding ConfusedConfused

Think I may need to go to YouTube

halcyondays · 12/10/2018 09:33

I don't think Eamonn cares really, I'm glad it's him and Ruth and not Phil and Holly.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/10/2018 09:36

I'm watching the arrivals on sky news. You can watch them on YouTube too, but they run the comments over the screen, which is annoying.

They just said Stella McCartney's the hot tip for dress designer so I'm suddenly feeling a bit doubtful...

@Butterymuffin tbf Sky News are showing the arrivals but very few have arrived yet.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/10/2018 09:38

Oh dear, not the biggest of crowds is it?

OP posts:
Butterymuffin · 12/10/2018 09:39

Just lost my last post where I'd switched to Sky. Thanks @SillySally. Heard the Stella McCartney tip - don't they say that with every royal wedding? I think it's to throw people off the scent.

SillySallySingsSongs · 12/10/2018 09:39

Sky news have mentioned about thin crowds too.

eurochick · 12/10/2018 09:39

What time is the main event?

Butterymuffin · 12/10/2018 09:39

Plus they said they expected a veil 'Unless she changes her mind today due to the wind'. As if you'd do that on the day!

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/10/2018 09:40

@ChicagoLil You can watch it here and turns out there's an option to switch off live comments too.

OP posts:
Butterymuffin · 12/10/2018 09:40

Ceremony starts at 11.

SenecaFalls · 12/10/2018 09:40

Good morning, y'all. I hope Prince Philip is able to make the wedding. I read that he will decide this morning based on how he is feeling. Certainly understandable at 97.

halcyondays · 12/10/2018 09:41

Apparently Camilla isn't going. Not sure why.

ChicagoLil · 12/10/2018 09:42

Thanks for the link!

Ahhh, the interview with Eug and Jack was quite sweet.

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/10/2018 09:44

Are ITV showing the actual wedding ceremony too? The royal YouTube channel says it won't be. I found it on too but it doesn't say if they'll broadcast the ceremony.

SillySallySingsSongs · 12/10/2018 09:44

Apparently Camilla isn't going. Not sure why.

That was announced a while ago. She has a prior engagement that she doesn't want to let down. There are a couple of minor royals missing for the same reason I believe.

yorkshireyummymummy · 12/10/2018 09:46

Don’t know why you think the Spencer’s will be going OP.
They are not related to / friendly with the Yorks.

Hoping to see some nice hats - that’s if we get to see people arriving!

ChicagoLil · 12/10/2018 09:46

Tracey Emin and friend look happy. Maybe they've discovered there are no lavs!

@halcyondays A harvest festival apparently, but I reckon she's in front of the fire at home, under a tartan rug with the dorgs at her side and flask of hot whisky in her hands!

Butterymuffin · 12/10/2018 09:46

Got YouTube open now. Saw a glimpse of the flowers outside the chapel and they looked great - orange and autumnal looking.

Holidaysareover · 12/10/2018 09:46

What a blowy day!
I think Eug and Binky Felsted look a bit alike

QueenOfTheAndals · 12/10/2018 09:47

Oh yeah @yorkshireyummymummy I completely forgot about that! Scratch Karen Spencer from the list then!

There's a lot of navy. I liked the teal top and fuschia skirt I saw someone in just thenI
