Sorry! Forgot to add photo and then the doorbell rang and I got distracted.

Not royalty but tangentially connected I guess.

The colour is fab on her but I hope she's okay...she's had a rough couple of years too.

Wow, Fergie looks great!

KnickerlessParsons · 06/09/2024 14:58

Look at Fergie's arms. She looks worryingly thin - unless that photo has been photoshopped.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 06/09/2024 15:03

Yes that's what I was alluding to. It's likely due to one of two things, one of which is having been under a huge amount of stress on her body with illness. I just hope she's well and happy. It doesn't look like Photoshop because the background is consistent but I suppose it could be a filter.

I totally didn't link the name Sarah with Fergie. As it was an event in Sweden I thought it was a mistype and was supposed to say Sofia.

I was thinking a while ago that Fergie was looking trimmer. I wondered (possibly because I am using Mounjaro) if she was getting help from Mounjaro or Ozempic. And if she is good for her - she's mid 60s and had recent cancer. Getting to a healthier BMI is more important than ever as you get older. Hopefully she is being sensible about it and not hoping to lose too much.

Is it not an optical illusion as the green fabric covers part of her lower arm and the skin on display looks even narrower?

RockaLock · 06/09/2024 15:12

I think it's actually the way the sleeves are hanging that's causing a bit of an optical illusion.

The sleeves are split, so the top half is hanging over her arms, and only the bottom of her arms are showing. I don't think they are as thin as they appear at first glance.

Oh cross post with @Choux !

Yes but you got there first!

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 06/09/2024 15:15

Oh no I made allowances for that! Not talking about the deathly skinny bit of skin on show. But it is very slim for her.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 06/09/2024 15:16

Yes those are the two options I meant. Illness/stress on the body, or injections.

Anyway I don't want to discuss it any more than that. I just hope she's well.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 06/09/2024 15:20

('I don't want to discuss it anymore' sounds wrong! I just mean I'm not comfortable speculating too much)

SqueakyDinosaur · 06/09/2024 15:26

I think there might be a tiny touch of photoshop on the arms, as it appears that if they were by her body, the left one, at least, would be down to her knees.

AllTangledUpInMyMonkeyNutNecklace · 06/09/2024 15:28

Hmm that's true.

Ah well. The colour of the dress is beautiful on her!

Ah, you could be right. I hope so anyway.

Silvia, Victoria and Estelle are at the Paralympics.

Thanks for the thread
...Fergie really suits green.

Maireas · 06/09/2024 17:56

It's definitely her colour.

Us gingers love a bit of green 💚

Lovely, a new thread. Had anyone seen the ridiculous AI images of William and Catherine on Instagram? Today there was one of her in a see through wedding dress!!

I hope she is well enough to come back soon and give us actual frocks to chat about.

Papergirl1968 · 06/09/2024 19:35

Fergie does look great in that colour.
Nice to see Lady Gabriella smiling while on a shopping trip to Boots.
And Sophie and Edward were also at the Paralympics.

Bless her, she's had a tough time, so I'm glad she's smiling. Also shopping at Boots 😀

Camilla was visiting an RAF base, in pearl and diamond earrings with matching necklace. Pretty sure we’ve seen that dress before several times. I like it.

That is one ridiculous curtsy.
