Special edition: Eugenie wedding thread

Harry and Meghan have 2 days more in NZ before they head back to London and, if I was her, I'd put on pyjamas, get Netflix fired up, and not leave my bed for several days! William and Kate will be out for a sporty engagement in Essex tomorrow and I'm sure we'll start to see them more as she's now officially back from maternity leave..

No idea what the continental royals are up to but New My Royals (does that title even make sense?) is my go-to link for them!

That blue givenchy is to die for : sheer, but to die for

😁

They announced at the wedding so assumed she was about 3/4 months then

Moononthehill28 · 31/10/2018 12:12

I think she looks more than four months personally.
She must be mortified about the transparency of her dress!! It is the loveliest thing I’ve seen her wear. What a shame.

CoachBombay · 31/10/2018 12:14

Yes I think she is about 5minths now, which makes sense for a late March baby, which is the beginning of spring.

My personal Meghan favourites; Evening wear

I liked the Burberry in some contexts....

Curly I think Meghan looks lovely in a A line and should probably stick to this classic shape whilst pregnant. It balances out her evergrowing bust

LonnyVonnyWilsonFrickett · 31/10/2018 12:37

Oh I'd missed that polka dot one Curly, ta. It's nice to see her in something a wee bit fun!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 31/10/2018 12:59

Yes, the A line works well on her. As long as she has a fitted top.
Also a peplumis good on her too, especially with skinny trousers.
Her proportions have changed drastically. Looking forward to seeing how she dresses her new curves and expanding bump

They waited a bit before going on honeymoon. I wonder if this is a honeymoon baby?

eddiemairswife · 31/10/2018 13:45

In one of those photos she looks to have three legs.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 31/10/2018 13:55

I think they only delayed their honeymoon by a few days; I think to attend the garden party for Prince Charles.
Well we'll know when the little Lord or Lady makes its appearance on the steps of the Lindo WIng.

Spudlet '...... I'm displaying tomorrow's washing'


Is there any possibility she is wearing a nude slip under that lovely Givenchy dress ?

Sheer or not, that Givenchy skirt and top is up there with the Oscar de la Renta dress and McQueen trouser suit as one of Meghan's best-ever ensembles.

Which one was the McQueen trouser suit Queen?

Paradyning · 31/10/2018 15:11

For once I love what Kate is wearing!!!

Looks the same cut as the McQueen wedding outfit

Clionba · 31/10/2018 15:12

If she was wearing a nude slip the skirt wouldn't have been transparent and you wouldn't have been able to see her pants.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 31/10/2018 15:30

Is that Kate today?

Paradyning · 31/10/2018 15:31

Apparently so

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 31/10/2018 15:38

I’ve just seen she’s at the Imperial War Museum.
I think because her hips are so slender; the overal effect is that she is very thin.

Jenny Packham dress, lovely colour.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 31/10/2018 15:54

She last wore it in Canada in 2016

Wow Kate looks very very slim there, I think the slightly puffed sleeves emphasise it. It says on KP's Instagram that her great-grandmother worked as a nurse in WWI and her 3 brothers were all killed in action. How very sad. After the third brother died, King George V wrote to her great-great grandparents to express his condolences.

@Paradyning This one. It was just a black suit with a cream blouse but the cut was perfect and she looked so chic.
