Royal Style: Never knowingly under-jewelled, let's be like Daisy and shine!

[Maireas]

New thread, thanks for the brilliant title suggestion, as ever!

Not sure about Kate in IVH. Charlene maybe?

Jakers thought it was a Halloween picture 👻👻

That's the one Max is wearing upthread!

Oh, it is too! 🤣

I was thinking of this one on Max, she’s worn it a couple of times.

That's quite a nice effect, the ripples.

Amazing dresses, the back is perfection

That's stunning.

Just been watching Van Herpen account on Instagram. The videos are incredible the way the clothes move like floating feathers. Quite extraordinarily beautiful

It's stunningly beautiful. I wonder if it's trompe l'oiel but it makes her figure look gorgeous

She's not royal but Gwendoline Christie looked majestic in this IvH a few years ago.

She's so tiny or he's tall. Love the coat

That coat is lovely, it looks cosy without being too overwhelming.

Oh that's amazing ! Not as keen on the blue though

Interesting little article about the Princess of Wales in today's Times:

The Firm is in trouble. Help is on its way! How Kate saved the royals

Mme Macron looking decidedly underdressed besides these two

Max dress is espectacular, one of the best evening ones I've seen her wear. What makes me chuckle is the mismatched styles in this picture. Ms Macron is dressed for a lunch in Paris, the woman on her left is wearing a pant suit for all ocassions, Max is dressed for State dinner minus tiara, and the woman on her right is giving an excellent Cher impersonation at the Oscars minus the headgear.

😁

I fully agree @Alondra.
But who got it right for the occasion ? 😂

I think "Cher" is the dress designer

Yes, that's Iris herself. Def Cher at the Oscars in the 80s vibes but to be expected, considering her designs!

I can see that they're pretty dramatic, but I really dislike IVH's designs. Too fussy and busy for me; I prefer a sleek, elegant silhouette to all that volume and those different textures.

Sophie's in Colombia. I don't have a problem with her dress, but the black jacket is the wrong length imo (needed to be shorter) and the white shoes are, as all white shoes are, ghastly.

I don't like Max's dress either, far too fussy for me.
And "Cher's" dress is far too circusy / stagey for me also.

I'm more Jean Muir or plain Cos with a bit of glitz from jewellery / shoes.

Gosh, that's an eclectic collection of outfits! So true - somebody in that lineup is either overdressed or underdressed!🙈
Not keen on Soph's outfit I'm afraid.

I generally lean to the simple - but that dress!! Beautiful, it’s more art work than clothing. 🤩

Spanish RF at the opening of parliament. Both Leti and Leonor look great, especially Leonor.

I like Max's hair waved like this.

Yes, she does suit that
