Talking of the Peacock Dress, have you aficionados seen this:

I watch Cathy Hay’s YouTube channel sometimes.

Here’s an interview with her about the project:

Peacock Dress

I don’t think it’s what I watched...I seem to remember she talks about in on her own channel too and that’s where I saw it.

Ooooh I will have to have a look at those thank you

Oh @Gooseysgirl that's pretty!!

@Maireas there're a few requests above waiting for your attention (mostly by me Grin Blush ).

Oh, I missed those! Inconvenient to be at work!

We love this picture of Daisy in her tablecloth coat!
Someone said she'd actually made it herself from that wipe down tablecloth material. Which I can believe!
Please let this be your Coronation outfit!

Daisy bought the tablecloth fabric for her coat from Perter Jones.

AdaColeman · 03/02/2023 20:00

Peter!

Incase anyone wants to make their own Daisy Raincoat!

Maireas · 03/02/2023 20:31

Brilliant, @AdaColeman !
I knew someone would remember!

@justasking111 well at least we'll be able to spot you in the crowd!

Max in Curaçao, wearing a dress that's the same blue as the eponymous drink! Amalia looks a lot like her grandmother in these shots.

Sophie looking good on a visit to the International Criminal Court - she does love these long dresses! But I like this one

KillingMeDeftly · 04/02/2023 08:21

That blue suits her and her hair looks good.

LadyEloise1 · 04/02/2023 09:36

Sophie's dress looks like Aspiga.
I had one years ago, very similar but with a square neckline much nicer from Laura Ashley.

KillingMeDeftly · 04/02/2023 09:37

It is Aspiga @LadyEloise1

TangledWebOfDeception · 04/02/2023 09:44

Oh I love Sophie’s dress! Beautiful colour and she looks great in it.

@justasking111 your tiara is a perfect match to that coat! You’ll likely be the most appropriately dressed for the weather on the day as well! Grin

Maireas · 04/02/2023 10:37

Sophie looks lovely. That blue velvet looks very luxe. She often wears pale colours, but that's really nice.

LadyEloise1 · 04/02/2023 10:55

Is the dress velvet or corduroy?

KillingMeDeftly · 04/02/2023 11:26

Corduroy, I've seen it in their shop window.

Maireas · 04/02/2023 11:38

Right, it looks like that fine needlecord. I used to wear a lot of that back in the 80s!
