Previous thread

What neon shade will HM wear? Will the DoE attend? Will Kate have a new coat dress? Will Meghan make an appearance? And which of us will be able to identify every random Windsor on the balcony?

All will be revealed tomorrow...

When it comes to shoes, Meghan's collection seems unsurpassed!Though I liked the plum Prada sandals Kate wore with her Liesl dress.

Meghan's was tougher but finally plumped for this

Sorry @Mrsmadevans, I'm with @MotherofPearl on the mustard Erdem. Hideous!!

MotherofPearl l must confess yes it's true l Love it Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 10/06/2019 23:23

Oh I forgot Meghan's one-shouldered black velvet gown she wore to present CWK with her award. The gold accessories and dark manicure set it off perfectly too.

quite the minx in this one! I love the gem dress she wore to Wimbledon and the dress for the private dinner in Bhutan

Mrsmadevans · 10/06/2019 23:27

Although my real fave is this but l didn't think it was dressy enough and the link was soooooo long Smile it reminds me of something Diana would wear in her Sloan days .

That's the OdlR one I meant @Mrsmadevans!Smile

QueenOfTheAndals · 10/06/2019 23:32

Kate wore a cream Mouret gown once, with silver Choos and a dark pedicure which was 👌🏼 She later repeated the gown with black pumps,which didn't work so well IMO.

Meghan loves her shoes, that's for certain. She likes a bit of a heel bow too.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 10/06/2019 23:38

I absolutely love Meghan’s shoes, these are my favourites.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 10/06/2019 23:40

I rarely like Kate’s shoes but I do really like these ones

frugalkitty · 10/06/2019 23:47

I think for me, Meghan does the best daywear and shoes, Kate does the best evening wear. I'll post pics tomorrow.

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 10/06/2019 23:48

Kate in her Jimmys looking fab.

BertrandRussell · 10/06/2019 23:56

What are those Emilia Wickstead dresses made of? They look worryingly like crimplene- but i’m sure they’re not!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/06/2019 00:01

Loved this McQueen day dress on Kate

This one shouldered Jenny Packham for evening wear

BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo · 11/06/2019 00:08

This is a bit risqué for Kate these days but I love this dress on her.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/06/2019 00:09

For Meghan, it was this off duty Hollywood outfit in Notting Hill. For me a lot of her mid pregnancy outfits were a bit «off» and I felt she got her style mojo back here.

I also liked the Mouret gown she wore pre Harry ( or before we knew they were an item)
She hasn’t worn a lot of evening wear when not pregnant, so hard to judge.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/06/2019 00:11

I liked that Blue mini / long dress too @BettyBooJustDoinTheDoo

Kate needs to get her sexy back.

Btw, the pp who said they liked the universally derided mustard Erdem.... that was surely a joke? Confused

crabb · 11/06/2019 01:12

This is very frustrating- none of the pictures in the 20-30 posts above are visible. I’m sure the pics of the shoes were showing an hour ago, but now they’re not there! What’s the point of the thread IF YOU CANT SEE THE DRESSES 😂

I can't see them either Sad

There is a black velvet coatdress worn by KM that is gorgeous.

I know the floral Erdem dresses are as popular as a wet dog at a picnic here but I like them a lot, particularly this one that she wore in Sweden:

I like this too (by Markus Lupfer).

Beaded, embellished, pale blue..

Another Erdem.

I'm not a huge fan of her coat dresses.

IHeartArya · 11/06/2019 05:48

Been on a couple of other threads & no pictures showing on ones I’ve been on.

AnneEyhtMeyer · 11/06/2019 07:07

Last night I could see half the pictures posted but they've all gone this morning.
