I agree with the feather analysis! Charles' feather looks like it accidentally went through the wash!!!

They look like they’re standing next to random thought bubbles

I'm not keen on Amelia's outfit, I think it's the proportions. She does look like her grandmother, though.

Not keen on Lux Stephanie's outfit. Think she'd look sleeker in a dress rather than top and skirt. Love it when a royal seems genuinely interested and enjoying meeting folks.

A tale of two Stephanies. Here is Monaco Stephanie, I think she has always had an androgynous style and I rather like the shirt and trousers combo.

I like it too, though I’m not quite sure about the belt. I think she knows what suits her body. Wasn’t she a swimmer, like Charlene when she was younger?

Maireas · 06/07/2024 09:12

Yes, she was a swimmer, and you're right about a swimmer's physique, like Charlene. I remember in the 80s Stephanie often went for quite a strong, pared down look. She would look good in some of Charlene's outfits.

Not sure if Stephanie was a competitive swimmer but she seemed to spent the best part of the 1980s wearing swimsuits!

Mary and Fred at a formal dinner in Greenland. Her dress is quite unusual but I like it and she looks good!

She did indeed! Did she have a swimwear design collection at one point?

Fred and Mary look quite interesting - is he wearing a cagoule? I rather like her look. Plenty of Orders.

He’s wearing the Greenland national costume.

Maireas · 06/07/2024 11:04

Oh thank you. I couldn't work out what it was.

I like the cut and shape of Mary's dress but I think that colour washes her out a bit.

RomainingToBeSeen · 06/07/2024 11:43

I like Mary's dress but on first glance I thought Fred was dressed as the hotel omelette chef.

Less keen on Lux Stephanie's skirt and top linked above. This is a lovely picture of her yesterday with our littlest thread mascot. 💙

So cuter 😍. I'm glad they get taken out and about.

Oh I ♥️ that photo of Stephanie and our mascot.
Chuckling at Omelette chef Fred! I too thought they look like when you pose with your favourite waiter on a cruise on dress to impress night (*disclaimer, I don't do this!)😂

Papergirl1968 · 06/07/2024 18:34

Fred and Mary posing for a catalogue shoot again.

Now those definitely are cagoules!

OP posts:
Eaumyword · 06/07/2024 19:04

😂 They both look beautiful to be fair - QM's (Mary) hair and makeup is gorgeous.
But it is definitely giving Cotton Traders Autumn catalogue vibes!🙈

RomainingToBeSeen · 06/07/2024 19:30

Oh to look that good in a cagoule!

Maireas · 06/07/2024 19:32

They are looking good 👍. Fred seems to look a bit better nowadays.

Here's a summary of some royal fashion in June, starting with the picture of QM just posted by Deftly.

I’m not sure why they chose that particular photo of Leti. She is looking a bit fierce and the front of her dress is blowing up so you can’t really see it properly 🤷‍♀️
