It's also a fantastic neckline for her.

Nnique · 16/04/2022 21:09

Oh yes! Great outfit!

Ah apparently the jacket is Celine. And she's in flats for a change! I don't know who the blonde lady is but she's a dead ringer for Naomi Watts!
I loved the blonde woman’s outfit, especially the gorgeous white top.
frugalkitty · 16/04/2022 22:38

Tonight's top is similar to one worn by Princess Caroline way back when, I'll see if I can find it.....

frugalkitty · 16/04/2022 23:12

It's defeating me at the moment, I'll try again tomorrow.

Can I just say, I find H & M kissing really blooming annoying. They're at 'work' so it's really not very professional. If my husband came into my school I wouldn't kiss him. Maybe I'm just getting old. But grr. As you were.

Is that a tribute to Brenda and Kelly's infamous matching prom dresses in Beverley Hills 90210?? Grin
I loved 90210 way back when!Grin Don't like the evening outfit. It's ok, but I still don't like the scraped back hair and the 90's style. I think she looks best with a soft chignon and simple outlines, such as the turquoise and the yellow shift dresses.

The jacket is Saint Laurent, not Celine.
KillingMeDeftly · 17/04/2022 07:38

@sansucre The white suit the day before was YSL but yesterday's boucle jacket was Celine. And whoever said Chanel flats was right!

KillingMeDeftly · 17/04/2022 07:51

And in a further 90s flashback, the top from last night is a bodysuit!

Maireas · 17/04/2022 08:13

Me. I want those Chanel flats 😍

Killing my DD wears bodysuits. I had one back in the day but with my long torso it wasn't very comfortable Grin bet we don't see Kate in one anytime soon.

StartupRepair · 17/04/2022 08:45

There is a photo of Diana in an identical while knotted bodysuit.

sansucre · 17/04/2022 09:04

@KillingMeDeftly Happy to be corrected!

(The near-identical Saint Laurent jacket is nicer than the Celine!)

LadyEloise1 · 17/04/2022 09:16

I don't like the camel ensemble with the scraped back hair.

PolkadotsAndMoonbeams · 17/04/2022 09:19

I always think she looks nice with a centre parting.

hopeishere · 17/04/2022 09:30

Hated the white suit - just because it's fashionable doesn't mean it will suit you. Bag looked cream as well.

Also hated the camel look but I hate that colour.

Loved the jeans / casual look and the opening night look.

KillingMeDeftly · 17/04/2022 10:19

Wow that's uncanny! Diana's Testino photos were probably the most beautiful ones ever taken of her.

Did my link not work!!
SnottyLottie · 17/04/2022 10:41

The body suit ensemble looks nice from the back but I’m not keen on the knotted thing going on at the front. The silhouette was stunning on her and she really suits off the shoulder styles. But whilst it’s very business glam and appropriate for the occasion I’m disappointed with the lack of glam factor. In all honesty this is something that I would actually wear for work (although I guess to her this would constitute as ‘work’). Her hair and accessories are lovely.

But Meghan, please please please give us some colour, I’m sick of all these neutrals.

We often talk about HM and Kate sending messages with clothes and jewellery. The caption on that photo is all about Diana being free of restrictions and if IRC the Testino shots were shortly after Diana's divorce ie leaving the Royal family.

I am not sure the likeness in outfit is just a co incidence.

Serenster · 17/04/2022 11:28

The Cambridges are all out this morning attending church at Windsor Castle (the Queen didn’t’t attained and nor did Charles of Camilla). Kate’s in a perfectly nice but very yawnsome flared light blue coat that is crying out for a pop of colour somewhere (a darker blue hat does not cut it), but it does match to Charotte’s tights, which is cute. Zara has decided to join Kate in the polka-dotted Alessandra Rich wearers club, buy the looks fo her dress.

The standout for me was Lady Louis Windsor who is attempting a hat with a high degree of difficulty, but perhaps not quite pulling it off. Good effort though - it’s nice to see her properly joining the family hat-wearers. Grin

I realise I'm almost alone in this view, but I love Kate in her coat dress today. Looks elegant. The children look adorable.

Maireas · 17/04/2022 11:59

I like Louise's dress, smart but not too formal. I read (I think in Good Housekeeping?) an interview with Sophie, and her concerns about Louise getting too worried about her looks etc. Anyway, she said Louise isn't really in to fashion and is happy to wear what mum suggests for the moment!
James is tall!

Maireas M&S do a similar Chanel copycat flat!
I really like the boucle jacket and 90s look. I'm glad to see clothes I could actually wear, pity about th and price tag and similar styles suit me tho I am also slow to go back to bootleg Grin She looks amazing in terms of makeup etc as always.
Don't like Sophie's outfit at all, haven't seen Kate.
