Royal Style: Gucci and Chanel for the win, coat dresses for the bin!

[Maireas]

Royal style continues!
Thanks to Deftly for the thread title. Let's hope there's more Gucci and Chanel.....fewer coat dresses..,.

@Eaumyword

I always think of Maireas as Lady Maireas

What! Not Queen Maireas?

Found you! Thanks for the new thread Queen Maireas… do I have to curtsey? I’ll go and my emerald tiara 😳😂👑

I think we should all curtsey when we log on or off this thread...👑

😂
I only ever post on here whilst wearing full evening wear, long satin gloves and a selection of diamonds… so - curtseying as I arrive is just fine 😉

I'm glad to see standards are being maintained. The very idea of anyone logging on here wearing leggings or jammies gives me the vapours. 🧐

Which would you prefer to be :
A Countess
A Marchioness
or
A Duchess ?

I'd settle for nothing less than Princess and I like the sound of being CPE(aumyword)

CPE you are, @Eaumyword!
I like the sound of Marchioness, but I think Duchess is higher?
I think the Marchioness of Milford Haven, is a very attractive sounding title!

I'd settle for an Honourable or Lady title. I always think the Ladies Amelia/Rose/Davina Windsor etc get the best deal. They can live fairly anonymously with all the perks of money and privilege, plus they get invited to the fun royal stuff like weddings, the Trooping balcony and Christmas lunch at Sandringham!

Good points, Deftly!
I think Lady Rose Gilman is a case in point - plus a gorgeous wedding tiara!

Ooh I love that tiara. She's very like her mother isn't she?

@Maireas

Diana altered this dress, which has a similar vibe. The alteration is far more flattering.

Does the slim line dress have a vertical front seam - or is it just the photo quality?

Yes, it does look like a seam, doesn't it?

Just checking in here complete with tiara, ball gown and extremely wobbly curtsy.

I'll be a Duchess please, and I'd like a castle for good measure.

Actually, I'm going to take that one step further....if it's ok with you ladies, I'll take an island, the Isle of Wight will do nicely, which includes carisbrooke castle and Osbourne house. And I can pop home on the ferry to check on my mum. It goes without saying that I'll declare myself In Charge of said island, and you are all welcome anytime and can booze cruise over from the mainland to suit. Tiaras optional.

I’m on the way! Tiaras are never optional.

I’ll be a Duchess please, preferably of Skye.

Right! That's all our holidays sorted!
Off to the Isles of Wight and Skye!
We'll look fab on the ferry in our tiaras.

I've often thought that when we say anything negative about what a royal is wearing, we should describe what we are wearing at that moment.

There's a picture in this link that shows the dress worn by Sofia, and it looks as though the skirt is a darker green.

My problem with the dress as worn by Letty is that the green is too bright it looks like she's had it replaced, possibly because she's taller.

The top half looks a different colour too I'm that pic. And Sofia's has a bow at the waist. Leti's doesn't.
Maybe it's not the actual dress, but a copy.

The original is so pretty, I love the muted green.
Just for Seneca - I am currently wearing black trousers and black and white Dalmatian print top - off to work😂

Found you!
Love these threads!

Kate's been out and about today at the Foundling Museum. Love the coat.
