Now that the Orange One has gone, it's almost time for a visit from the Oranje One! Yes, Queen Max will be attending next Monday's Garter ceremony. It'll be a triplicate fashion face-off between her, Letizia and Kate - who will emerge victorious?

It’s her gaff. They are over dressed Grin

AnneEyhtMeyer · 13/06/2019 20:57

I never understand the praise for Camilla's outfits. She always looks like she's wearing pyjamas or a nightie to me.

Wetdogloveshubert · 13/06/2019 21:04

YLB does look fabulous - oh to have her elegance! I also thought Donna Air looked gorgeous at the gala.

I absolutely love the Jimmy Choo Vamps and am green @Chewbacca. They are so glam! Kate looks sexy in them.

Camilla always looks like she’s gone out in her PJs I’ve always assumed it’s a posh way of sticking two fingers up at the world!

QueenOfTheAndals · 13/06/2019 21:10

If indeed she is "the laziest woman in Britain" maybe this means she can just tumble into bed at the end of the night and not get changed first!

Not a fan of the masked ball, one more accessory to juggle when you're surfing the buffet. Plus, we all know it's them. Grin

IHeartArya · 13/06/2019 21:20

Or maybe Camilla just wears what’s she’s comfortable in!

itswinetime · 13/06/2019 21:21

It just looks like everyone else made loads of effort with their outfits and someone threw Charles and Camillia a mask

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 13/06/2019 21:30

Do we think Charles has about 20 of those horrid mid blue pinstriped suits. ( which always have the buttons a bit skew Wiff)

Camilla’s casual clothes are a bit meh but I admire her for being smart and dressing for comfort.

She basically wears nicely ironed lounge wear; basically a long kaftan or a short one with flowy pants.

Stravapalava · 13/06/2019 21:31

How does Donna Air get invited to these things? Is she married to someone connected?

itswinetime · 13/06/2019 21:35

Donna airs gets invited because of her husband he is an aristocrat or something I think

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 13/06/2019 21:43

It's a fundraiser. That's why they're all invited. Presumably DA has access to money.

LadyPollyEstherCardigan · 13/06/2019 21:44

Didn't she go out with James Middleton for quite a while? 🤔 (long-time lurker popping in, hello! I've been interested in the European royals for ages so it's been really exciting to see these threads take off!) 👸

queenofarles · 13/06/2019 21:47

Do you mean her former Husband Damien Aspinall itswinetime?

Camilla clothes are always very Palm beach Chic.

queenofarles · 13/06/2019 21:50

People of Australia please share with us this fascinating cover story.Grin

Lol, the desperation for them to be rowing is strong isn’t it!

MotherofPearl · 13/06/2019 21:59

C'mon @AhoyDelBoy, you're in Australia aren't you? Spill the beans!

Not that there are any to spill I'm sure. Media is desperate for a full-on Kate vs. Meghan war but it all seems totally groundless.

itswinetime · 13/06/2019 22:02

Do you mean her former Husband Damien Aspinall

Oh have the split now yeah I did. Didn't know they weren't together now obviously need to improve my info!

AudacityOfHope · 13/06/2019 22:14

Camilla's in her jammies again I see Smile

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 13/06/2019 22:15

Kate is very very competitve at Scrabble & wins everytime. However Meghan is also very good at Scrabble too.
Hence why Kate won't let Meghan beat her.
William is still cross that Harry beat him at Scrabble two years ago!

itswinetime · 13/06/2019 22:18

@TracyBeakerSoYeah that is fake news we all now the real cause like in all families is Monopoly!!! Wink

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 13/06/2019 22:25

itswinetime you could be right as didn't Andrew once say 'that we don't play Monopoly as it gets too vicious.'
Perhaps Harry nabbed William's hotels when he wasn't looking Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 13/06/2019 22:25

I'm also intrigued by Angelina being obsessed by Dick! Madden that is...

Australian gossip rags are second only to US ones when it comes to making up any old shite Grin

We don’t play board games anymore at Christmas time either. The rows are epic & legendary Grin
