Royal Style and Beauty: Trooping forward - colour glitter and style but more tiaras may take a while..

[Maireas]

New thread!
Welcome old friends and new!

The blue and yellow dress is too much. Was it chosen to match the sash?

Those I like. It's the plain white ones I dislike!

Catherine?

William Wales? I think Carl Philip of Sweden and Haakon of Norway might win that particular accolade. Who else is living in the airing cupboard @notsuchafrugalkitty ?

Yes, Prince William. Even Megan made eyes at him, apparently. No wonder given her own situation.

No Frederick is the winner. Those you mention are too obvious. He has a sparkle that they don’t possess. I would.

Megan??

😂😂

Now I think Philippe king of Spain has immense charm 💓

I agree. The ultimate silver fox!

Definitely Felipe. He was handsome as a young man and has now reached the silver fox years. Though actually not that old, only 55!

Yes, Rachel, I’d you prefer. As does she! Let’s face it she hasn’t landed the Alpha male prince.

…if you prefer

@Cam22 welcome to the thread if you’re new. Our cardinal rule is we are here for the clothes. We don’t delve too deeply into the politics and we don’t engage in criticism of the people. Clothes are fair game though. We are no fans of Erdem.

We are no fans of Erdem

(There is a small, politely defiant section of the membership who quite like Erdem though - we are a broad church! 😀 )

Fair point. ⛪️ 😂

Erdem fans permanently occupy a special wing in Bold Towers, and I can't see @Maireas releasing them any time soon.

Mocking choice of shoes is in effect mocking the wearer, no?

I’m OK with Erdem, I’m just a bit baffled by the royal devotion to the brand. I will say that there is enough variety to suit people’s different styles. Kate and Meghan have both worn Erdem equally well and looked completely different. I liked Meghan’s bottle green coat and dress ensemble worn when she was pregnant. It was a long way from Nan’s curtains.

@Cam22 I think we’re probably on safe ground complaining about the shoes, but we wouldn’t be if we talked about the feet in them. At least, that’s how I see it as a recent returner to these threads. It’s easy to come unstuck when discussing one or two of the royals so a gentle reminder never goes amiss.😊

Mary must've heard our praise of Sophie's dress as here she is in Erdem. It's a little too frilly for my tastes though. The shoes are a bit different and the texture makes them stand out a bit more than a regular nude shoe would. It's the 105 again!

I'm looking forward to seeing the Needle and thread gowns my DIL has ordered, will report back.

Saw Queen Mathilde in Erdem as well. Are they cracking it out for summer. It was actually a nice summery dress.

Now, I do quite like that even though it’s quite fussy because she wears it so well.
I love the Needle and Thread dresses @justasking111, it will be nice to have a little look🙂

Max is on holiday on a small island off Italy. It looks very private

I have the keys. Possibility of parole on application.
