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!)

If it wasn't for the mask wearing I would have said that photo was from the 1990s

Shock Nice jacket but it's a had no to the green trousers. It would have been a chic trouser suit with black trousers. I agree Paradyning, it's the '90's all over again!

KillingMeDeftly · 14/10/2021 22:57

90s Sophie was very 90s!

Albert and Caroline with "Prince" Napoleon and his wife, who appear to be giants!

Something fishy seems to be going on with Charlene Hmm

Goodness, Sophie really embraced the nineties aesthetic, you're right!

Yes the Monaco situation is certainly odd. I notice Albert is hosting more and more events with Princess Caroline when Shazza is unavailable. I think both Albert and Charlene said she'd return to Monaco in October. I do hope she's okay.

The Green Memo has definitely done the rounds this week. Grin

And no, the 90s were not particularly kind to us fashion-wise. Sarah Ferguson here sporting an outfit very similar to something I would have worn back in the days and I thought I looked amazing. I think I may have also had a blazer rather like the one that Sophie is wearing in the picture above. The shame!

I watched an interesting programme last night about Albert, Stephanie and Caroline. Gosh, what a lot of heartbreak, particularly for Caroline.
If Charlene is coming back in October-well it's halfway through already so I guess all will become clear soon.
That photo of Fergie is interesting-she suffered some cruel headlines about her weight and yet really she was slim. I wore that leggings and cardigan combo too!

KillingMeDeftly · 15/10/2021 07:50

I thought the same about Fergie's pic @Eaumyword. She was actually very attractive as a young woman but unfortunately constantly compared to Diana by the media.

90s-style blazers (without quite so much shoulder padding) have made a comeback in the past couple of years but apparently it's going to be all about the early 00s soon!

eggandonion · 15/10/2021 20:11

I wore similar on the school run. I always liked Fergie.

GrouchyKiwi · 15/10/2021 20:27

I wore clothes like that in the 90s too, but I was a kid so it was a bit different. Grin

eggandonion · 15/10/2021 20:47

Im the same sort of age as Fergie.

MotherofPearl · 15/10/2021 21:31

Max got the green memo and as we can see, she responded enthusiastically! It's quite a strong look, that's for sure.

HM, Charles and Camilla have been at the Welsh opening of parliament this week. That pink looks good on HM; I like softer shades on her than the harsh brights she sometimes goes for (though I know why she chooses them). Charles looks very red and flushed - more so than usual. It looks like they were just taking off their masks, so maybe the mask had made his face red/hot. I'm not sure about Camilla's red outfit. I think the dress needed a bit more structure.

Max is another one who's taken inspiration from Gumby recently.

Eaumyword · 15/10/2021 22:20

I think HMQ looks lovely in the pink. Cams looks fabulous in the red but Charles looks seriously flushed and a bit crumpled-he's normally smarter looking.
Not a fan of Max's outfit this time.

justasking111 · 15/10/2021 22:24

All the green on royals this past week. A nod to something I wonder. It's not a colour I have ever liked in these shades

I really like tgst on Max, suits her colouring. Also like the pink and red. Agree Fergie v slim there..

KillingMeDeftly · 16/10/2021 10:33

Couple of events for Kate next week - Earthshot awards ceremony on Tuesday and charity dinner on Thursday. I think, given the theme, it'll be a rewear for Earthshot. Possibly in green?

And apparently there's a diplomatic reception next month which always means tiaras!

Eaumyword · 16/10/2021 11:09

Might be brown!
Can't wait to hopefully see more tiaras 👍

She weirdly looks younger now

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That colour is everywhere! I’ve just bought two jumpers trimmed with it. Everything in the collection was green . It was like being in a forest. Are we calling this Gumby Green!

KillingMeDeftly · 16/10/2021 13:36

I can't get my dates right - Earthshot is tomorrow, charity do is Tuesday.

I think Kate might repeat the Vampire's Wife green dress for Earthshot. Or maybe even the green dress she wore in Pakistan, though I'm not sure how formal an event it is.

Maireas · 16/10/2021 14:07

HM looks nice in the pink, I like her in pastels.
Leti and Felipe have been at a book awards
