Apparently it's been ID'd as Susannah Hunter although Sophie's Cora seems less flared on the lower half so might not be correct.

Plus Prada dress and Jimmy Choos as you do!

I thought it might be one of Kate’s beloved yet divisive Alessandra Rich dresses, but no, it’s Prada!

Speaking of divisive, here’s Sophie last night at an army dinner in an Erdem dress. Kate has a cocktail length version. She looks very glam.

I'd bin that belt Sophie. Those belts never look good.

Choux · 24/01/2025 16:52

Yes a better belt could have been chosen. She has a good bra on though.

Anne is back from South Africa and at Sandown Park racecourse, while Mette-Marit was at the International Library of Fashion Research in snowy Oslo.

Love Anne's outfit colour and co-ordination except for one tiny detail - her boots would look better knee high.

Char is out and about celebrating her 47th Birthday. She looks lovely in profile (sorry, can't link a pic.) She does always look pained or sad, but I think that's just her face in repose to be fair. Must admit, I try to have a slight smile when out and about (not in a crazy way, I'm quite smiley anyway!) I think people respond better to smiles - look at Max!

Zara at Cheltenham Racecourse wearing one of those headbands so beloved on here!

I feel like that coat could have come straight out of her mum's wardrobe.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 25/01/2025 21:31

That's a dreadful coat. And she's back to looking trussed up!

Maireas · 25/01/2025 21:32

It's too tight and too fussy.

Eaumyword · 25/01/2025 21:39

Agreed! Too trussed up and the headband? Nooo!

Lifestooshort71 · 26/01/2025 12:59

If you're short-waisted then it's a bit harder to get away with anything belted even if you're very slim - Zara, Meghan and Fergie do tend to look a bit trussed up in anything with a well-defined waistline.

That's because they're not flat chested as well

Meghan isn’t busty 🤷‍♀️

Sorry was thinking of Sophie and the silver dress.

The Japanese Imperial couple visiting a Monet exhibition with their daughter Aiko. I think Masako looks very elegant in her trouser suit, it's a good cut and colour. Princess Aiko's suit I'm not keen on, I think the skirt is quite an unflattering shape. The lady in the kimono looks beautiful, it's such a gorgeous garment.

I can’t find a good photo of the full outfit Catherine is wearing today but the 5 strand pearl necklace is lovely.

gingercat02 · 27/01/2025 18:46

Kate's pearls are beautiful. There are a few nice photos in Town and Country, but most of the coverage seems to be in the Fail, etc.

Does anyone know why Camilla isn't there? The Euros all came in couples. Is she still unwell?

Kate looks stunning in that photo where she’s lighting the candle

Absolutely beautiful. How lovely to see her with the survivors, such touching pictures.

Aiko is only about 22 or 23 - that skirt suit is way too old for her!

I love Kate's pearls!

Kate looks good, black is appropriate for the occasion and the pearls are a nice touch.

What in the Jamie Fraser is going on with M-M's trews??
