It's like one of Kate's trouser legs is too long and one too short.

The colour is terrible on her as well. Just bad overall

DuchessOfPort · 19/09/2023 22:20

Ah Fergie. Ever cheerful. I do think her face is very attractive actually, lots of character. (I know that’s code for ugly but it’s not what I mean).

William’s photo made me laugh out loud. It’s not all about BAFTA and black tie chaps.

Gooseysgirl · 19/09/2023 22:47

Love Fergie for bringing the colour 😄
Letizia gorgeous
Dutch princesses gorgeous, beautiful colour on Amalia
Max... never a dull moment is there, love her 😆
KM... another trouser suit 😴😴😴, I don't usually like camel colour on her, I like the jacket shape, trousers not so good
Meghan.. normally a fan of most of her outfits but not this one, grey really does not suit her at all, trousers just don't look right on the waist, the waistband is not helping

KillingMeDeftly · 19/09/2023 22:54

Kate is starting to rival CPV in the pantsuit department. Or Angela Merkel!

Me too! What that outfit really needs is a fleece! 😊

What that outfit needs is Princess Anne. She could really pull it off.

Lunde · 20/09/2023 01:44

Loved Leti - great dress

Meghan's grey outfit is a nope from me - the trousers and jumper look like jumble sale items

She could. With panache.

I'm sure Kate thinks there's no pleasing you lot !
😂
One minute you're whinging about coat dresses, she changes over to trouser suits and now you're whinging about them too and even mentioning Angela Merkel on a Style and Beauty thread.

I think there's a photo of Fergie in the dictionary next to the word indefatigable! Not sure about her dress but Charlotte looks good.

Hey don't knock Angela, she did surprisingly well at evening wear!

Love Leti's dress.

Kate's suit is all kinds of wrong, the colour, the trousers.

What can be said about Fergie, it's a bit over the top, I think Fergie is the double of her late father.

That grey outfit not a good look on Meghan at all, I think Meghan has had more fails than hits since she fell out with the friend who was her stylist. I don't understand how someone so petite with a great figure can wear clothes that rarely fit her or suit her.

MsMarch · 20/09/2023 11:02

So.... after a long conversation with DD (who is 8) yesterday about her desire to have a "curtain fringe" - I can now confirm that Kate has, in fact, got one. Apparently it is the HOT NEW THING and DD is desperate for one! Grin. So look at that - Kate is on trend with that at least. Or at least, according to my 8 year old!

I thought the colour on the trouser suit did nothing for her. I didn't mind the slightly long baggy thing but I don't love it.

Fergie ... bizarre. Leti - gorgeous!

LaBrujaPiruja · 20/09/2023 12:06

Leonor does not have much choice about her outfits these days

Cadet Borbón Ortiz making military uniform look rather stylish there!

justasking111 · 20/09/2023 12:41

What's a curtain fringe I'm off to the hair dresser next week?

HilaryThorpe · 20/09/2023 13:13

I like Camilla's pink, but her hat is in danger of flying away! PM Borne also in pink.
Non-stop coverage on France2.

SenecaFallsRedux · 20/09/2023 13:41

Angela looks really good in those pictures.

locketrocket · 20/09/2023 13:54

Oooh... I have a curtain fringe 💁🏻‍♀️

Usually for a week before I'm due a trim 😂

Me too! Very much more Severus Snape than Supermodel sadly.

Love Camilla in pink today, that soft shade really suits her.

MsMarch · 20/09/2023 15:13

Camilla looks amazing. Although I don't like the shiny inside of her coat dress? Or it's been sewn badly. But the colour is gorgeous on her - she should wear it all the time.

She's also wearing the triple pearls I love.

SenecaFallsRedux · 20/09/2023 15:17

Pink flatters many skin tones, but I think it looks especially good on Camilla.

DisforDarkChocolate · 20/09/2023 15:23

I love the colour of Camilla but am not keen on the outfit (apart from the hat). It doesn't look like it fits properly and I am not a fan of shiny fabrics.

ArcaneWireless · 20/09/2023 15:37

She looks smashing.

I can’t get excited at her coat flapping open and showing a bit of lining. The outfit itself is just fine.

I still think she looks magnificent in blues but this is a pretty change.

Quite radiant.
