Eugenie's evening dress was incredible!

I've never seen a more beautiful dress - I'm completely in love with it. It looks like a 40's film stars! The colour, the tiny v waist, the voluminous pleats - you never see dresses so generously made.

Not that keen on on her dresses. Agree with @speakout that her clothes are very matronly. There was nothing youthful about either dress - both were quite staid for a woman of only 27.

MrsSchadenfreude · 14/10/2018 14:20

I don't like the colour, and all you see in that photo is the tits.

twattymctwatterson · 14/10/2018 15:11

Her boobs look like boobs. I don't see anything weird about them. Are we so used to tiny women that a normal feminine shape looks odd to us?

kazwelch · 14/10/2018 15:12

Loved both her dresses. She was stunning.

theboxofdelights · 14/10/2018 15:13

It reminds me of pictures I've seen of the Queen when she was young, she had an incredible figure.

Me too Liv. I thought exactly the same. I don't think it is matronly at all.

IWannaSeeHowItEnds · 14/10/2018 15:16

It reminds me of the wonderwoman costume. I'm not keen. But her wedding dress was amazing and she looked totally beautiful in it.

PortiaCastis · 14/10/2018 15:21

Nothing like a wonder woman costume

HainaultViaNewburyPark · 14/10/2018 15:25

I imagine it looks stunning if you see it with movement. All we have is a static shot with some unfortunate shadows. But IRL I think it would look much nicer. I’d love to see what the back looks like.

I agree with this. I think people are so used to seeing ultra slim women on the red carpet (or either of the duchesses at their appearances) that they've lost sight of what a normal, slender but not ultra slim woman looks like.

EscapeToTheMoon · 14/10/2018 18:40

The only thing i can see are boobs. Its not the best suited.

Aeroflotgirl · 14/10/2018 20:25

I agree, she looks stunning, and it is unusually designed, and which complements her womanly shape.

Aeroflotgirl · 14/10/2018 20:26

What is wrong with the dress, women usually have boobs, so what! Does she need to wear a tent to hide them!

Honeyroar · 14/10/2018 20:27

It's not that people aren't used to seeing normal figures, it's just too tightly fitted around her boobs and it looks a bit vulgar, a bit like a pair of speedos on a bloke! It detracts from the rest of the dress and her lovely hourglass figure because all you look at is the boob area.

dementedma · 14/10/2018 20:29

just highlifhts the boobs. it's all you see when you look at the photo!

didireallysaythat · 14/10/2018 20:41

Unfortunately the picture I have in my head is of a nursing woman who forgot to put in her a nursing pads. I can't get past that.

bluebell34567 · 14/10/2018 21:27

colour and style not suitable at all for her age.

Ellapaella · 14/10/2018 21:35

What's that boob thing all about? Looks like hairy breasts!

IceniSky · 14/10/2018 22:30

I think she has a warrior queen look about her. Something from a Bernard Cornwell novel. The top looks like the shape of armour, to me anyway.

Spankyoumuchly · 14/10/2018 22:33

I found the under boob shadow really disturbing.

HannahnotAgnes · 14/10/2018 22:36

I agree Op - absolutely gorgeous, stunning!

Aeroflotgirl · 14/10/2018 23:49

IceniSky exactly, was trying to find the words. A very warrior princess look about it. The top half had this sort of look to it www.costumepartyworld.com/deluxe-wonder-woman-complete-cosplay-costume

Amaaboutthis · 15/10/2018 00:00

Don’t like it a bit. It’s the cape which puts me off and I didn’t love the wedding dress either. Meghan’s dresses, both of them were magnificent

BackforGood · 15/10/2018 00:02

I don't like anything about the top half of the dress, tbh. Agree with all the comments about the bust area looking very odd, and I really don't like the high neckline and the shoulders / cape like effect.
Maybe it is the photography, but we are all just commenting on the one photo on this thread (presumably officially released to the press?) so you'd like to assume the most complimentary.
I really liked her wedding dress, but am not impressed by this evening dress.

Woman has boobs shocker.

Skittlesandbeer · 15/10/2018 09:11

I agree 3/4 sleeves would have been sensational.

But stunning, regardless.
