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!

I love that outfit on Max too, but the headwear is very.....Max!😆

Camilla looks a lot like Jill Biden in the second picture to my eyes. What a nice coat.

“Camilla looks a lot like Jill Biden in the second picture to my eyes….”
I thought so too @PoppySeedBagelRedux and I think Jill Biden looks a bit like Crystal Carrington from Dynasty 😀
I don’t like the coat itself as I think it looks a bit dressing gowny but I love that blue and it suits her and me.

Love Max's dress with the floaty cape but not sure what is happening on her head.

gingercat02 · 16/05/2025 19:56

Max's flowery hair thing makes her look like a mature bride

Lifestooshort71 · 16/05/2025 20:25

Thought she'd forgotten to take her rollers out until I zoomed in

Has anyone done Hampton court palace tour. Was on TV programme earlier. 1400 rooms. You'd need days to explore I thought

KiIIingMeDeftly · 16/05/2025 22:33

A long time ago but you don't get to go in all 1400 rooms!

There have been some lovely pictures of Zara and Mike at his golf charity event at the Belfry this week. Zara looks so happy and relaxed in her casual gear compared to some of the formal wear. I know it barely qualifies as fashion (even Mike’s shorts) but they’ve made me smile.

I can highly recommend the Cartier exhibition at the V&A - it’s stunning. Two of my favourites: the Duchess of Gloucester’s Indian tiara, and Grace Kelly’s engagement ring and the convertible tiara/brooches she received as a wedding gift (the cabochon rubies just glowed!).

Went to the V&A this week. Unfortunately, couldn’t even book for Cartier online. They should keep a few tickets aside for each day.

How and ever, I went to the V&A “Jewellery’ section, and that is amazing. There was so much to take in that I couldn’t do it all. You have to be ruthless with exhibits you wish to prioritise, and do them first. You cannot do the entire museum in one day. The courtyard area is gorgeous, as is the restaurant.

SqueakyDinosaur · 17/05/2025 15:24

I love the permanent jewellery collection too. The spiral of gemstones is one of my favourite things in the whole museum.

Count Nikolai and his girlfriend Benedikte Thoustrup have been looking very stylish at Australian Fashion Week. She looks stunning in the lilac maxi dress.

She's very glamorous. I'm not keen on the lilac dress, but she looks very chic in the black one.

Oh yes Benedikte is my top style icon atm. Very glamorous.

(although it's easy when you're slim and loaded and get loads of freebies 😄)

I once saw them at the races and they still look so in love. She stole a kiss from him in front of everyone.

My friends son met them on holiday and apparently they were so down to earth, they all met up for a drink in the bar later.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 18/05/2025 18:05

This is whacky headgear even by Maxima's standard but she looks great!

And then Felipe said "hold my cerveza"...

Is Max auditioning for a Midsummer Night's Dream?
That's a great look on Felipe. I once read that the last Kaiser had an entire room for hat storage, he had so many.

Various European royals looking very bridal at the new Pope’s inauguration mass.

Meanwhile Zara and Mike were at a fundraising gala and Sophie was at the Royal Windsor Horse Show.

Privilege de Blanc. MT looks as if she's in a dressing gown! No mantilla. Charlene and Leti look nice.
