If it is, does he know you’ll be accompanying him wearing Daisy’s tablecloth coat?? Grin

Ssshhhh Daisy might be on here 😅

Yes agree the longer length would be better in that dress. Really like the jumbo cord though on her and fitting for the event.

MM looks good too but perhaps in need of a bra intervention. Hope her health is better these days.

An no. It was Sofia. Not sure if it is but looks similar.

Sofia’s dress is ribbed jersey or ribbed corduroy I can’t remember off hand. Wasn’t amazing.

I can’t warm to The Vampires Wife on any of them! They’re like the grown up version of the Anna and Elsa Disney dresses that DD used to wear.

CliffsofMohair · 02/03/2023 00:11

Genuinely love MM and HH (but not as much as @frugalkitty obvs).
But this outfit. No. Tricky as separates never mind put together.
didn’t love the Vampire’s Wife dress either though.

Oh good god, no!

TangledWebOfDeception · 02/03/2023 00:13

Also HATE the way the stripes don’t meet up on the waistband.

CliffsofMohair · 02/03/2023 00:19

I know. It’s pinning 101 in Basic Sewing.

CliffsofMohair · 02/03/2023 00:20

Also yes to bra intervention. But don’t we all as we get older.
I would hate to be in the public eye!

More scaffolding type underwear required nowadays unfortunately.

I need a bra intervention. 🙄🙄 Been putting it off for months!

JFDIYOLO · 02/03/2023 01:12

I had a bra intervention yesterday - got fitted at M&S - great job and I'm shopping on Saturday.

Maireas · 02/03/2023 07:28

I agree with folks about MM's outfit - I like that she's embracing colour and pattern, gives off Max vibes a bit - but the stripes don't match and overall it doesn't work. It's also a bit shiny.
Glad to see her looking well, though, and HH (@frugalkitty treating him well 😉)

Esme and Patrick would definitely have something to say about those stripes.

gluenotsoup · 02/03/2023 09:22

No, I don’t like anything about that particular outfit, it’s all kinds of wrong.

SqueakyDinosaur · 02/03/2023 09:30

I wonder if the mismatch is actually a tie belt? In which case it would have been better thicker, like a sash, and with the stripes going the other way (or diagonally). It would still look weird with that blouse though.

So love MM’s coat. But I’d be itchy about foundation/ powder/bronzer/whatevs getting on the collar.m when you are all happit up like that.

TangledWebOfDeception · 02/03/2023 11:25

Oh I love Meghan’s latest outfit. All of it (can even forgive the stilettos), but especially the gorgeous coat! 😍😍

Ooh, I love Mette-Marit’s red dress! It fits her nicely, too.

Kate’s green suit is perfectly nice. Haakon and William also look nice (they’re all very tall, aren’t they!)

TangledWebOfDeception · 02/03/2023 13:28

Ah lovely! All looking fab. Big thumbs up!

KillingMeDeftly · 02/03/2023 14:09

MM looks great! Kate does seem to have a few of those suits, all in different colours, but that teal suits her. Is there an evening do for the Norwegians too? Not a tiara one of course, but it would be nice to see some glamour!

LadyEloise1 · 02/03/2023 14:59

Does anyone else think Kate looks different there ?
Perhaps a tweakment too far - am
I allowed say that on this thread ?

themessygarden · 02/03/2023 15:04

It's that eye thing,

I used to think it was badly treated Botox, but now I wonder if it is Ptosis in the other eye (droopy eyelid) and makes her other eye look smaller and squint, which would emphasise how open the other eye would look.

themessygarden · 02/03/2023 15:07

'Other' because I can't figure out which is her right or left 😊.

I didn't take that close a look but you're right. Could just be a bad photo, she looked fine in Wales yesterday.
