Royal style & gossip: while Meghan's away, will Kate play?

Link to previous thread. And not a moment too soon!

Curly that woman in red's contemplative head tilt is very amusing

All the women in the room are looking at the dancer; and the men appear to be looking anywhere but!

Is that Carlos Acosta next to Charles?

That look of concentration on Camilla's face.

Ah yes, it was Carlos. Video footage of the event

Marchioness has to be the best title hasn't it? So glamorous. Much nicer than Duchess, which is a bit staid IMO.

I would have said the opposite @kedgeree!
A marchioness sounds like an 80 year old Edwardian to me.
However, it is a rare title. There are very few marchioness
Es around.

I like thé European fema,e equivalent: Marchesa

Emma McQuiston on get wedding day. The future Marchioness of Bath

Sorry DM link but his DF refused to go to the wedding because of a row over erotic paintings!

The Countess of Burlington could be the Marchioness of Hartington if she chose - traditionally the Duke of Devonshire’s eldest son is a marquess, and his eldest son is Earl of Burlington. They don’t seem to have bothered upgrading....

Camilla has good legs!

Sadly I think the row over Erotic paintings was a red herring.
Sadly it was pure old fashioned racism.
Apparently the groom’s own mother said something along the lines of «how could you do this to your 400 year old bloodlines»

Letizia and the glam Argentine first lady

State dinner outfits.
Love both dresses especially the skirt lengths. So fresh and modern.
Kate should wear this length more.

Official Welcome

Thé Argentine First Lady is gorgeous. She reminds me of Eva Mendes

I love the navy dress on the Argentinian First Lady.

Ooh all the Spanish and Argentinan dresses are glorious! Especially Leti's evening dress. If I could have dreamt a dress for me... Aand agree re lengths - much more modern I think.

The President of Argentina is something of a character - married 3 times, kidnapped and nearly choked to death on a fake moustache at his own wedding reception!

That's a great skirt length on both women but I think you need to be on the taller side to get away with it. Anyone short risks looking like those dolls used to cover toilet rolls!

They both look fab. That green is gorgeous.

Beautiful dresses on Leti and the First Lady.

Oh wow, love both those dresses. Leti's evening one is everything I ever dreamed of!

Love all of those dresses. The video really shows the movement of Leti's cream dress, it's so gentle.

Anyone short risks looking like those dolls used to cover toilet rolls!

Snort!
