I do sometimes! Definitely helps things not stick to your legs and they do hang better.

I have the M&S full slips and half slips in black, nude and white.
Great for non cling.

Look at us all with our slips! We have so much more in common that just an interest in royal fashion and jewellery

notsuchafrugalkitty · 23/05/2023 17:52

I'd never wear a skirt or dress without something underneath and yes, my petticoats/slips are M&S too. It's clearly the RS&B equivalent of the mumsnet scarf 😂

KillingMeDeftly · 23/05/2023 18:24

I'd never have thought there'd be so much love for petticoats and slips on this thread! I've never worn one in my life!!

Maireas · 23/05/2023 18:29

That's excellent, such a good cause. I'm glad Sophie is shining a light on this.

@justasking111 MY EYES. 😵😎

pussycatinfluffyslippers · 23/05/2023 20:39

It's like an update of Queen Sonja of Norway's infamous floofy yellow dress:

Well it's certainly a departure for CPV! It's the sort of dress I would expect to see in black on Charlotte C in Cannes.

The Big Bird dress.🐥

MotherofPearl · 23/05/2023 21:06

Oh my giddy aunt.

CPV has certainly strayed very far from the herd with that look.

Royals enjoying the ☀️ at Chelsea. Love Bea’s summery yellow (my, there is a lot of yellow at the moment)

I love Flora's dress not so keen on Bea's reminds me of summer school uniform.

I thought the henna party outfits were exquisite 💖

KillingMeDeftly · 23/05/2023 21:23

I know what you mean @CliffsofMohair. Most people would be happy with acknowledgment and a generous allowance but she has taken on royal duties and dhows up at all family occasions. I suspect smiles through gritted teeth for the rest of them!

We didn’t have summer school uniform in Ireland (we didn’t need it with our ‘summer’). I love the freshness and the crispness of the dress.

I wonder if Beatrice will get broody now 🤰👶
