Royal style & gossip: from christening gowns to tennis lawns

And I think we all can agree that it's much more fun if we stick to critiquing the clothes rather than the women!

No those assets are not what she started out with. She has had quite a lot of new things. She looks remarkably different to pre-marriage.

I agree that the bosom does disguise her actual figure somewhat. Take them away and she's extremely underweight and always has been, I mean it's not new. But with a bosom like that, it definitely obscures her real weight.

On the other hand, you have someone like CP Mary, who has remained fairly flat chested (well very small chested anyway) and manages to look perfectly in proportion and really healthy. I'm not sure what magic she uses.

Maybe Leti just has a very good push up bra! She's very slim but not at petite as people think. For years I thought she was tiny but she's 5'7.

The big fake boob look on Leti looks pretty dated now, it was the fashion late nineties early naughties aesthetic, very posh spice in the wag era.

Here is HM's dress - previously hidden under the pink coat - note the matching cuffs and collar!

The other picture is from Camilla's reception at Clarence House, for Ebony Horse Club Brixton.

Ooh, I like Camilla's dress.

I do like Camilla’s clothes. She never gets it wrong, does she?

Lady Gabriella at Wimbledon today.

I love her style - it’s always different but in a quirky way.

Wow!! Queenie looking very vibrant and ... is dashing the right word?

Camilla looks like a conservative version of Iris Van Herpen (and from googling that name I’ve just realised she’s a real person and rather good designer).

Ebony Horse Club is a great charity and right bump Camilla’s street, I’d have thought. Good to see them getting support.

Let me tell you a little something... a friend works as a nurse in the cosmetics field. Even small chested ladies have discreet boob jobs!! Taylor Swift is a good example, and Kate Hudson... Sarah Jessica Parker.

If you’re very thin (naturally or stress), having those silicons is a god-send in not looking like Skeletor. Same goes for the subtle nose jobs, fillers, teeth, lips... would say 95% of A Listers have had some or all of this. As common as us using mascara.

Gabriella looks fantastic- could look too smart/ serious, but she hasn’t overstyled her hair/ makeup. Very naturally pretty!

@Notmyrealname855 that’s interesting. I’ve always thought those petite frames have amazing boobs that you just don’t see in real life unless they’re fake. Thinking of Kim Catrell, Gwynth Paltrow, Anne Hathaway type figures. I’m tall and relatively slim build but my boobs are tiny in comparison. I wouldn’t have surgery but always wanted to just go up just ever so slightly to be more in proportion with my frame.

Does your nurse friend have any gossip then?

I know they’re not Royal; but do pop up on these threads Ben Goldsmith & Kate Rothschilds’ 15 year old daughter was killed in a quad bike crash dm link.
What an utter tragedy.

I'm afraid I don't think Max is looking her best here. Her hair in particular is not good, though the suit is okay and it's refreshing to see a royal woman in flats.

Oh dear lord, that is so sad. Her poor family and her poor school friends.

What that family are having to endure.

I think Ella Windsor Kingston looks so much like her Grandmother Princess Marina.

That's so sad for the Goldsmith/Rothschild family
losing a child is horrendous, the worst thing ever regardless of whether you are rich or poor, famous or non famous.
No parent should ever have to bury their child. It's not right, not the natural order.

Tragic.

That's very sad.

Interesting post on Marina here

Incredibly sad for the family.

That is very sad.

I think Gabriella gives off a kind of Californian / Blake Lively vibe. She looks like a nice down to earth person. I hope she is!

How tragic. I agree completely @JaimeBronde

Thank you for the post about Princess Marina; she sounds fascinating.
I was quite taken with the idea of a “silver lamé wedding dress”.
It’s a shame there a no colour photos of her. She looks very chic and “handsome” rather than beautiful.
