@Maireas

Oh, I love the Miss Jean Brodie look! (Off topic, sorry!)
I though that was Helen Mirren at first but no, it's Lia Williams. Who has a royal-ish connection as she played Wallis Simpson in The Crown!

Perhaps Kitty has struck a deal with Hello or another magazine and that's why no photos are available at the moment?

Maireas · 25/07/2021 11:02

Well spotted, @KillingMeDeftly! I want that red dress and shoes. Good point about a Hello deal. She's already a "muse" for Bulgari fine jewellery, and it seems as if Dolce e Gabbana are involved - Emma Marchioness of Bath has been pictured in a gorgeous gown.

No tiara on pic? 🤔

Thanks, @Tintiny - it looks like a taster. Emma Longleat looks fab. It seems strange to hold it in Italy at this point, I wonder if many Spencers made it, even William and Kate?

There's more details about the style of dress

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 25/07/2021 14:06

Beautiful dress & bride!
Kitty reminds me of Grace Kelly on her wedding day

Ooh, exciting! I get Hello posted through the door on Tuesdays. I'm supposed to be going to my caravan tomorrow until next Monday so I'll have to wait to see the details. Thank goodness for this thread as I know you'll be sharing titbits I can dip into!

TriSarahTops · 25/07/2021 14:08

Gosh - I bet she was sweltering in that dress. An odd choice for a wedding in Italy at the height of summer.

That's her Spencer brother on the left and I presume her brother from her mother's second marriage on the right. Doesn't look like either of her parents made it.

Thanks for those pics, @TracyBeakerSoYeah, that dress looks amazing. So glamorous, but I think it needed the Spencer tiara!

Just popped in to share a photo of Kitty's wedding dress but see someone beat me to it.......obviously the lack of Spencer tiara is nothing to do with me (more's the pity!) Grin

paradyning · 25/07/2021 15:12

No Charles Spencer!

Maireas · 25/07/2021 15:13

We thought you'd snaffled it, @frugalkitty, and were about to post a picture of you wearing it.....

MrsFin · 25/07/2021 15:20

Lord, that dress is truly awful!
Who are the two young men on either side of her? Not her husband obvs

KillingMeDeftly · 25/07/2021 15:22

Her brothers @MrsFin.

KillingMeDeftly · 25/07/2021 15:24

D&G have posted a photo of the dress. Not sure I like the sheer bodice with bra cups look.

Royal Style - has Kate ditched the skinnies?
Maireas · 25/07/2021 15:27

No, I don't like the bra cups look. That's what spoiled Kate Middleton's dress for me, the visible cups (although the bodice wasn't transparent).

frugalkitty · 25/07/2021 15:33

The dress is too fussy for my liking, it's a bit 'loo roll cover chic' for me. The tiara would have been a good distraction!

KillingMeDeftly · 25/07/2021 15:48

@frugalkitty I'm going to be controversial here and think that with such a fussy dress, a tiara would've been a bit too much.

frugalkitty · 25/07/2021 16:01

Oh I agree, but I'd rather look at the diamonds than all the lace

TriSarahTops · 25/07/2021 16:06

The puffed sleeves are very now. But I think it’s a look that will date quite quickly.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 25/07/2021 16:11

Did somebody say where's the Spencer Tiara?

@frugalkitty looking like butter wouldn't melt in her Tiara mouth
