Thanks royal style fans for the thread title!
We need banquets, some diplomatic visits and more weddings. Oh and more of gorgeous Charles (you know the one I mean!)

Ah here we go.

Not so keen on the purple trouser suit. I'm not sure it's Kate's colour.
To be so bright and bushy tailed after the big premiere Shock
The words pantsuits reminds me of Hilary Clinton Smile

Leti is so stylish and thin.

KillingMeDeftly I knew she had at least one in black; didn't know she had one in almost exactly the same colour. Grin

KillingMeDeftly · 29/09/2021 20:13

It's just struck me - first the gold dress and now the purple suit - maybe she really is looking to Quality Street for colour inspiration! What will she go for next? The pale green of the noisette triangle or the red of the strawberry cream?

GrouchyKiwi · 29/09/2021 20:18

Maybe the bright blue of the coconutty one.

HeyGirlHeyBoy · 29/09/2021 20:20

Mmmm... Green triangle Grin Love the purple suit. I do think, ironically as here I am on the style and beauty section, that the massive emphasis on and praise for how someone looks is a bit unnerving - on msm/real life I mean. Anyone else know what I mean?

frugalkitty · 29/09/2021 20:47

I wonder if the dress will be reworn at some point without the cape?

Tracy I saw your comment about wanting to be a spy....I learned Russian because I wanted to go into the diplomatic corps but then the wall came down I was all Confused Although, as a little girl I really wanted to be a bus conductor (I wanted a ticket machine!)

To be fair she was on assignment in Derry. She was probably briefed to avoid green, blue or red. No literal dressing today. Purple is a great not contentious colour

Here's some ideas for Kate for next year's Royal Ascot...

Oh blimming nora, those Quality Street hats/dresses are Outfits with a capital O!

AdaColeman · 29/09/2021 22:19

I can just see Max in that Quality Street purple hat! Wink

LadyEloise1 · 29/09/2021 23:17

@CliffsofMohair
I agree - purple was a non contentious colour. Smile

eggandonion · 29/09/2021 23:38

The apprentice boys of Derry have purple sashes...not that shade though.

paradyning · 30/09/2021 06:27

Or someone wishing to be offended will say it a 'fenian' colour.
Anyway. I think the belt ruins the trouser suit. It is very Angela Merkel.
Can we just go back to Max! She is no Wes really but a delight. Looks like she has a brace in her wrist too.

*she really is a delight

choixx · 30/09/2021 07:35

She didn't have to go full on scrape eg croydon face lift, there's a middle ground.

choixx · 30/09/2021 07:36

Queen M has amazing style

MotherofPearl · 30/09/2021 17:44

Another good evening look from CPM I think.

Love that silver gown.

KillingMeDeftly · 30/09/2021 18:45

Oh I like that. It's a bit retro!

CliffsofMohair · 30/09/2021 19:59

My Lord they are such an attractive couple

Maireas · 30/09/2021 20:12

Nice gown, very elegant. Fred looks a bit the worse for wear! At least the suit is an improvement on the last one.

KillingMeDeftly · 30/09/2021 20:28

Fred is 53 but is one of those men who look perennially boyish!

latedecember1963 · 30/09/2021 21:19

I could see Princess Anne wearing CP Mary's silver gown back in the day. CP Fred is a handsome man. I love that old footage from many threads ago where he was looking adoringly at her when she mafe a speech at his 50th birthday dinner. 💖

KillingMeDeftly · 30/09/2021 21:44

Yes, so could I @latedecember1963 but Anne would have a massive chignon!
