Royal Style - Leti loves a linear look, but Maxima's mantra is more!

[Maireas]

With tiaras galore! Thanks for the title, @Eaumyword.
Looking for @TracyBeakerSoYeah for the link!

Did the wedding dress remind anyone else of the eighties puffball style? I thought it was a bit odd if I'm honest.

I agree about the Duchess of Huescar's petrol blue outfit, she looks great. Less keen on the lilac floral number.

At first I thought "this is a great outfit from CPM; she's looking so stylish" - and then I noticed it. The dreaded white shoes. She's obviously got Kate's memo. Curses!

That dress is nice but couple it with that bouquet and white shoes and Mary looks a bit "mature bride at the registry office for her second or third wedding".

Agreed, MoP and Deftly.
I'm not sure about all white, especially at this time of year, it does seem bridal.
As for the shoes

@KillingMeDeftly

That dress is nice but couple it with that bouquet and white shoes and Mary looks a bit "mature bride at the registry office for her second or third wedding".

That is all I could see. Hope Mary doesn’t go mad with the fillers and do a Rania.

I had the exact same thought about second time around bridal outfit, Deftly!

Leti, on the other hand, looks sensational in this black dress. She really is the most chic of the royal women.

Wow. I'm not keen on black, but if anyone can carry it off, Leti can. Very chic.

Mary has looked a bit dodge the last few days. There's pics of her rocking full on MOB look with a whooping hat. Lost her mojo.
I know no one ever says so I'm here as it 'not in the spirit' but by God Leti is so so thin.

I liked CPM's mother of the bride outfit with the big hat!

Beat rice's Dior dress 😍🥰😘

Sorry @MotherofPearl! I just think she's been portaled in from the 90s!
But apparently the 90s (or is it the 00s) are in with the kids so what do I know.

I thought the same @paradyning but it may just be the style of dress.

I love Leti's style of dressing but I suspect she doesn't have her figure by eating 2 croissants for breakfast like I just have. 🤣

She isn't particularly short either so that probably makes her look extra slim. Plus she's always standing next to Felipe and he's a giant!

Leti's dress is €127, Maria Malo

I may have to hand back my royal fashion fan badge, but I generally find Leti’s style really dull.

She wears her clothes very well, and beautifully fitted, but they are generally so very corporate bland. I know she sometimes breaks out the leather culottes and the fashion forward ruffled tops, but so much of what she wears is, as another fashion website describes “Junior District Attorney”.

Hah are you thinking of Go Fug Yourself @Serenster? I think she does still stray into news anchor territory but to be fair, that's what she used to be!

Go Fug Yourself is very amusing!

@Serenster whose royal fashion do you rate, if not Leti? That sounds argumentative but really I'm just curious!

A few more images from the Lichtenstein royal wedding. The evening looks are quite glam.

The incomparable Beatrice Borromeo generally looks amazing, I think, MotherofPearl. And I think Crown Princess Victoria tends to hit the mark mostly often when it comes to evening wear, and Crown Princess Mary is generally great at day wear (I have coveted so many of her dresses over the years!).

I don’t dislike Leti’s style - well, I do dislike some of the appliquéd and embroidered outfits she pulls out, but I suspect that might just been Spanish styles versus UK styles - but I’d love to see her inject a bit more personality into her outfits. I don’t always love what Maxima wears either (understatement ), but I love that she wears a lot of bold looks.

Oh, and yes it was gofugyourself! I do miss their coverage.

Oh and speaking of the devil, here is the stunning Beatrice attending the Liechtenstein wedding from the photos you linked to, KillingMeDeftly! I love her day look (not so fond of the mesh bodice on her evening look though, given the side boob shown in an earlier photo).

I thought Princess Stephanie of Luxembourg looked lovely in her evening gown too - that colour really looks good on her.

Serenster, I agree about Beatrice.

But I am hanging onto my view that Leti is chic! I don't associate her with embroidered or appliquéd clothes (perhaps I've missed these items in her wardrobe though), but with quite sharp lines and minimalist looks (she certainly doesn't wear much jewellery). She seems much less frumpy than some.

These are the kind of things I am talking about, MotherofPearl. Obviously these aren’t representative of her day to day style,, but when she wants something more formal she tends to go for Felipe Varela, a Spanish designer, and he does love an embellishment!

She has a few of this sort of things in her formal daywear wardrobe, and I just think they are all skew far too “Mother of the Bride” for her.
