Sometimes I think they look a lot alike, sometimes totally different. It's weird.

This is an example of where I think they look alike

Yes, you'd think as a model she would have learned how to hold herself better.

Delurking (thanks everyone) to say that IMO models are not examples of good posture. Some of their poses make them look as though they’re suffering from some painful condition requiring corrective surgery, and their facial expressions only add to that impression.

Here's a round up of jewellery worn at the Coronation and concert by Royals of all sorts, including overseas, that also gives good close ups on what they wore:

Thank you for the link, really nice to see close ups.
Love how Max sneaked in some subtle tiara-ish bling in 😆

Cool disguise

Sophie looked good last night. She suits her glasses, and the video clips where she’s dancing along to Lionel are very sweet , she totally enjoying it!
Louise also looked beautiful, I like her hair like that rather than the tighter, scrunched curls.
Zaras choices this weekend have been fabulous, I love both the blue and green, and the better necklines.
I love Kate’s red suit, she’s worn it before and it’s very flattering and well cut.
How well is William wearing that suit?! Beautiful cut and he looks very gym fit too. He’s getting better with age, growing into his features I think. In contrast, I didn’t really rate Harry’s Dior suit at the Coronation. It certainly didn’t stand out as a designer suit, he’s next to Edo in some pics, whose suit looks a much better quality and cut. But then Edo always wears a suit well too. I think the Saville Row tailors will always have the edge over a fashion house in these things.
Looking back, I liked most of the style this weekend but it really stands out to me that it was missing a bit of bling really, either at the Reception or the Coronation ceremony. It seemed just a touch too pared down and needed the one - off jewels that really belong only at this type of event. Kate and Wills - please take note!

Agree re jewels, the whole thing was a bit nothingy. We all know they’ve got the jewels so they should have blinged it up. Leaving them in the safe doesn’t make the RF less rich, unless they sell them off and give the money to charity.

Maireas · 08/05/2023 12:09

William did look and sound good, his voice wasn't too "oit and aboit". Lovely sentiments.

But did he say "coronaaaartion"??

Maireas · 08/05/2023 12:18

He did. Also, I heard the York women call to each other "Beatriiiice" "Eugenieeee"..

Is this the lady someone was asking about unthread in a pink turban?

Apparently her tiger eye turban ornament is from Cartier in 1937, and was originally worn to the coronation of George VI in the same year.
