Royal Style: a day starts well if it starts with Mary of Teck.

The next thread, royal style mavens! The title suggestion was from our last thread. Mary of Teck was never knowingly underdressed or less than bejewelled!

Camilla went on to see the poppies at the Tower of London which probably accounts for the choice of a red outfit. It also accounts for the choice of the poppy motifed gloves which I do not like.

Sweet little boy, though.

Camilla was also in red for the opening of the poppy display at the Tower of London. Probably the same dress.
I love both Victoria and Madeleine’s dresses.

Papergirl1968 · 06/05/2025 20:28

Sorry, cross post about Cam’s dress for the poppies.
Agree, not keen on the gloves.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 06/05/2025 20:29

Madeline looks gorgeous - the pink makes me think Princess Barbie! And CPV's dress is lovely too and th aquamarine kokoshnik (I think?) is stunning.

Do the Swedes have the most tiara events out of the Euro royals?

Maireas · 06/05/2025 20:33

I think they do, Deftly! They certainly win on that score!

Who is the sweet little boy?

deeahgwitch · 06/05/2025 20:41

Those sweet pea Camilla was given must have smelled divine.
The red suits her.

SqueakyDinosaur · 06/05/2025 21:02

CPV does have the most AMAZING cheekbones. I do wish she'd wear her hair a bit looser sometimes though.

And Madeleine is IMO genuinely beautiful.

Lunde · 06/05/2025 22:18

I love Princess Madeleine's tiara - it is stunning.

eggandonion · 06/05/2025 23:04

@deeahgwitch I needed tights to go with knitted dress, and got woolly tights in Dunnes. I looked like the crochet dolls from the advert. I miss debenhams. And I miss Roches.
Is the king off to Canada soon to open parliament?

RomainingCalm · 07/05/2025 09:08

I love that dress on CPV - I think she’s worn it before. It looks like a completely different dress when she’s sitting down. It needed a tiara with BIG rubies though imo.

Madeleine does indeed look beautiful in that pink dress.

Tiaras, trainers and tights sounds like the start of a new thread title! 😊

I'm alone in not liking CPV dress. It looks to be covered in cellophane wrappers from quality street to me. 😁

Buckingham Palace garden party attended (or should that be hosted?) by Charles and Camilla, Anne, Edward and Sophie and the Gloucesters.
They all look nice but Anne appears to have black shoes and bag but navy gloves and Camilla to be wearing black and cream shoes with a blue outfit.
More pics to follow - having a few problems with my phone signal.

CPV very sleek look.

I wasn’t keen on Camilla’s outfit at the Garden Party. Something about the hat and outfit itself just didn’t “gel”.
Sophie looked well.
CPV looks great in the red.

Service at Westminster Abbey

PoW in white with black poker dots.

QC in white with interesting black trimming around the neck and down her coat. Very striking.

Love Sophie’s hat - not everyone will agree.

themessygarden · 08/05/2025 12:21

Has Catherine worn that dress before? it looks familiar. I love her bag, anyone know the brand. She is so elegant and her bone structure in those close up side images !

Camilla looks great, love her coat.

She wore it to Garter Day in 2023 - but with an a more exuberant hat!

I love Camilla’s sculptural hat, and Sophie’s, though it looks more Ascot than church service. The Duchess of Gloucester has a very elegant netted doughnut hat on too - good hats all around!

Alessandra Rich I think
perfection !

If people are commenting can they please add photos or links as to where they are seeing the photos to make it easier for other posters to find. Thanks

@themessygarden - Kate’s bag is from Demellier.
