Royal style & gossip: the Middletonian, the Marklesque and the Maximal!

Link to book group thread, which has the list of books.

And in case you get bored of the royals or they're having a quiet week, here's the Celebrity S&G thread!

Remember, let's critique the clothes without getting too personal about the wearers.

They do look so happy together.

Favourite bafta gown?

I don't like that dress at all, it's just like a dull wedding or graduation dress to me! And I usually love her style so I'm surprised (not sure if it's at myself or at Kate!).

Also, they are definitely two different dresses in the side by side green/blue debate.

I like the first, Grecian style.

They're all pretty similar and Grecian except for the Erdem, which would've looked better had it sat a bit higher. She needed to give it a good hoik!

Her eyebrows do seem a teensy bit higher than normal

For loving looks, you can’t beat this one.
Amazing how they manage to have their private moments; even in a crowd.

I would have killed to wear a dress like that at my graduation . I see what you mean but I love it.

The second Bafta dress is my fave though, the black floral one. Very different.

Here is some footage. Why does Kate not have any flesh rolls when she sits down

Baftas

Yes, I was thinking that about the Erdem. Still my favourite.
She perseveres with that label, but it’s a hard one for her to carry off.

She got the tone spot on for the hospital steps appearance after George's birth - simple dress, minimal makeup.

Erdem is a bit of a marmalade label. I liked this one (though I'd have removed the ruffle towards the bottom) but loathed this chartreuse horror.

To be honest; I’d be hard pressed to think of many times Kate got it wrong.

Mustard Erdem in Sweden.
She is 99% impeccable

Your link didn’t work @queen but we’re both talking about this one....

Oh wow I've not seen that yellow one before, it's hideous. Even worse than that pale blue 80s prom aesthetic she went for at that recent state dinner.

She even looks sad to be wearing it there, Curly! I agree though, I rarely dislike her clothes, especially evening. I'd never wear a coat dress myself but I think she usually looks lovely.

Love the dress, hair, accessories, make-up- just right. Yes McQueen or Jenny Packham dresses don't come cheap, but it's the BAFTAs. Those type of events and state dinners are where spending £££ on an outfit makes more sense.

Totally agree re. the Botox though. I saw this photo earlier and was taken aback at the eyebrows/car woman look. She's a stunning woman, she doesn't need it.

The skirt of the dress is very like the skirt of my wedding dress. I wanted one that swished and swayed.

Kate, tiers and floral satin just do not go.

She’s a pale chiffon girl, every time.

I very much doubt that Kate will wear Marchesa again any time soon. Far too toxic for a royal.

Is that Erdem as well Curly? Wtf is it with them and hems like fucking valence sheets?

Eugenie wore Erdem for her engagement announcement, right? She suits a bold pattern.

They do have such star quality- everyone is just beaming when they come in, in that lovely footage posted. And being beamed at by them. It’s nice.

I'd already forgotten about the prom dress! I agree with whoever said ice blue is not her colour. She looks best in warm autumnal tones.
