Done before I even finished reading the post!
Thank you @Maireas
& fab title @Eaumyword

MotherofPearl · 26/07/2021 21:01

Thanks for the new thread @Maireas and to @Eaumyword for the amazingly alliterative title!

Could this finally be the thread where we get a full-on gowns and tiaras event?

Maireas · 26/07/2021 21:01

For Princess Tracy 🥇
For Eaumyword 🏆

I have everything crossed, @MotherofPearl.
A good tiara event is necessary.

Thanks for the new thread!

eaumyword I'm more likely to share Hottie Haakon than the Spencer tiara, depends what mood you catch me in Grin

I think the only royal men I could truly love are Prince Albert of SCG, Karl I the last Emperor of Austria & Bertie King George VI
But alas they are no longer on this mortal coil & I haven't even come up with an idea to invent a time machine, yet.
If only Nicola Tesla ❤️ was around.....

My acceptance & thank you speech is on the previous thread but thank you again!

MotherofPearl · 26/07/2021 21:12

On reflection it seems sadly unlikely we'll get any tiara events now over the summer. Maybe we'll need to hold out until the Diplomatic Reception, which iirc is usually late November? Hopefully Covid won't scupper it again. Here are two images from the 2019 one.

This is the kind of glamour we need and deserve!

Thank you for the new thread. Didn't want to turn up empty-handed so here are another couple of pictures of Kitty's dresses from the weekend. Would love to see a better picture of the gold one.

Yes we need more royal glamour hint, hint just in case these threads are known about in certain 👑 circles Smile

LadyEloise · 26/07/2021 21:27

Great title @eaumyword

Eaumyword · 26/07/2021 21:41

Checking in thanks @Maireas, @TracyBeakerSoYeah and gang.
So excited for some glam fashion and jewels hopefully heading our way!

MrsRockAndRoll · 26/07/2021 22:19

I would love a tiara event

KillingMeDeftly · 26/07/2021 22:21

We must be long overdue a State Visit. If only Covid would sod off then the Carringtons Bidens or the Japanese imperial couple could pop over!

MrsRockAndRoll · 26/07/2021 22:21

Sharing Sarah Ferguson's photo shoot. Not keen on any of the clothes but the Alexander McQueen bustier is particularly awful

KillingMeDeftly · 26/07/2021 22:26

WTF Fergie?? The dress and blazer in the shot on the swing aren't too bad but why the hat? She looks like she's about to charge you tourist prices for a gondola up the Grand Canal!

Her hair looks great though.

KillingMeDeftly · 26/07/2021 22:28

There's a certain element of high camp about the bustier outfit. All she needs is a riding whip and saucy glance to complete the look!

StartupRepair · 26/07/2021 22:31

Kitty's wedding seems to be as much of a photo shoot for d and g as a celebration of spending her life with someone. Beautiful beautiful dresses though.

Eaumyword · 26/07/2021 22:32

Oh blimey! Not the sort of high octane glamour I was expecting!Confused
I'd say Fergie's spirit animal is a galumphing great lovable labrador with no brakes and a waggy tail that knocks stuff over.

MotherofPearl · 26/07/2021 22:41

I'd also love to see a full length photo of that gold dress of Kitty's.

Goodness me, Fergie's outfits in that fashion shoot are just completely bonkers! Each is more outlandish than the one before!

Maireas · 26/07/2021 22:45

The necklace that Kitty is wearing with the gold dress!! Ginormous stones, which I'm guessing are real?!

Maireas · 26/07/2021 22:48

Thank you, @MrsRockAndRoll - that's an interesting article. The photoshoot though?
Some unconventional looks there! The make up isn't great.

Just seen this picture of the back of Kitty's main dress, with the train. This is absolutely beautiful, though I wasn't keen on the dress itself.

CliffsofMohair · 26/07/2021 23:15

My impression of Fergie has long been someone stuck in a particular age of her life and not having the means or ability to get past it. She clings to the royal persona long past the stage that it is healthy for her. She has been divorced for decades. She could have had a very different life.
