The BBC has some good pics of Kate & Will as they carry on up the Khyber.

Let's hope Kate's bra doesn't fly off mid-hike or William's trousers fall down...Grin

If they do, it will be Meghan who sabotaged then, you mark my words.....

I decided to google for pictures of the Khyber Pass and the first hit was a curry house in Romford!!

Wow I just bloody love Mathilde's tiara!!! Like a PP, I instantly thought of Dr Quinn when I saw KM's outfit today. Can't say I'm all that keen on that waistcoat...

QueenOfTheAndals · 16/10/2019 12:33

Dr Quinn, Medicine Royal...

Will must be wishing he'd worn his fleece!

But he can't @AdaColeman - he's thrown it away after he read us on here telling him that it's not stylish!

AdaColeman · 16/10/2019 12:38

Kate's been given a traditional Chitrali hat, just the same as the one given to Diana, a brilliant PR touch!

That curry house in Romford will be so glad of all the publicity it's getting as a result of this trip Queen! Grin Grin

AdaColeman · 16/10/2019 12:41

Yes! Exactly! I know MotherofPearl!

I'm sure Kate's outfit is extremely practical but it is also extremely hideous. Even if she taken just the waistcoat off it would be slightly better.

hopeishere · 16/10/2019 13:23

Would trousers have been a no-no for Kate? Seems more sensible for what they are doing. The waistcoat is awful.

Meghan is maybe in denial - having been a very slim person getting used to the idea that you are not going to get that figure back would be hard. Combined with the fear of wearing new clothes for fear of being deemed profligate!

QueenOfTheAndals · 16/10/2019 13:24

I think Kate's skirt is actually culottes @hopeishere.

Kate’s definitely in a skirt

Stunning scenery

TokyoSushi · 16/10/2019 13:32

Now I see Kates outfit with the scarf, in the context of the (beautiful) landscape, yes the outfit is hideous, but it does also completely fit in with the occasion and the surroundings.

So I'm going with 'hideous, but it works!' A rare combination!

EdWinchester · 16/10/2019 13:37

It is truly an awful outfit.

AppleKatie · 16/10/2019 13:39

It’s a truly bizarre outfit.

queenofarles · 16/10/2019 13:43

It looks like an outfit from a James Purdey lookbook.
All that’s missing is a feathered trilby hat and a sporter,

BertrandRussell · 16/10/2019 13:46

Well at least that picture of them sitting on the wall in the hats will give George and Charlotte a laugh!

PinkSun9 · 16/10/2019 13:59

Did they jump up to sit on the wall seats?? And how long did they have to sit there bearing in mind their dangling feet and blood circulation.

ElspethFlashman · 16/10/2019 14:05

I didnt even think they made skirts like that anymore.

Pretty sure my Nan had a skirt like that in the 70s. It was horrible then and all.

QueenOfTheAndals · 16/10/2019 14:30

No word on who Kate's skirt is by but I didn't think they made them like that anymore either! Maybe she has a dressmaker who can knock such garments up at short notice.

Wait 'til them bloggers that copied all her clothes copy that.

AudacityOfHope · 16/10/2019 14:49

Kate's outfit makes me think of something Camilla would wear to go shooting in Scotland Confused

QueenOfTheAndals · 16/10/2019 15:05

What else are W&K doing? Are they still up the Khyber?

OP posts:
QueenOfTheAndals · 16/10/2019 15:06

Doing today, I mean. Is there an evening engagement too?
