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!

I thought Sophie had on really big gold hoop earrings in that thumbnail, Maireas!

(lovely colour, I agree)

Maireas · 02/06/2025 18:57

Yes, I know what you mean! I really like the colour on her, but it doesn't seem to fit well around the bodice. Broderie anglaise is so nice for summer though, and I know they divide opinion, but I like espadrilles for summer day wear.

I like broderie anglaise but only in white. I’m not keen on it in other colours, and agree that something isn’t right with the fit of Sophie’s dress.

I see Beatrice Borromeo is pregnant with her third child, a girl. She looks stunning in this white dress. https://www.newmyroyals.com/2025/05/beatrice-casiraghi-borromeo-is.html?m=1

Beautiful. Beatrice looks so elegant, that gorgeous dress is Dior of course, for which she is an ambassador. A very chic look.

I love Sophie’s hair long.
Blue really suits her but the dress is a wee bit tight around the bust.
Aspiga must be delighted to get the publicity.
I hate those blo*dy espadrille wedges with ribbons up the legs😂

Eaumyword · 03/06/2025 06:57

Beatrice B does look so chic.
Agreed, Sophie's colours really are pretty pastels and broderie anglaise is a gorgeous fabric, but the arms and bodice look tight and not quite right.

Lifestooshort71 · 03/06/2025 07:04

Broderie anglaise is quite unforgiving and needs a touch of lycra for stretch (if that is even doable?)

themessygarden · 03/06/2025 07:55

That is a lovely dress on Sophie, the colour is beautiful

Love Beatrice's dress, the body of it reminds me a little bit of the dress Meghan wore (in Morocco I think), it hung so beautifully over the bump.

Sidebeforeself · 03/06/2025 13:45

I love the colour of Sophie’s dress but the overall effect ,with her hair loose and natural, is a bit informal and crumpled I think.

KnickerlessParsons · 04/06/2025 15:12

Lovely photo, except that the littlest boy looks like he’s sitting in a potty 🫢

RomainingCalm · 04/06/2025 16:38

They are an absolutely beautiful family - what a lovely picture.

(And yes, I see the potty reference! 😊)

MotherofPearl · 04/06/2025 17:12

Queen Jetsun and her whole family looking beautiful as always.

AppleDumplingWithCustard · 04/06/2025 19:13

Don’t like this outfit that Queen Mary wore yesterday. She usually gets it absolutely right but this one does her no favours.

OH yes 😂

Nice! That red is gorgeous. I'm not sure about Mrs Pavel's blue dress.

Agreed.
Max looks glorious in red!

Sidebeforeself · 05/06/2025 17:56

Mrs Patel’s dress is very 80s and casual. Max is sizzling!

Sophie at the Unsilenced: Sexual Violence in Conflict exhibition at the Imperial War Museum.
And a Cartier turquoise and diamond tiara owned by Nancy Astor, former MP and wife of Lord Waldorf Astor, has been told at auction for £889,400.

Sophie looks lovely, that dress suits her.
A very harrowing exhibition and I applaud her work in this area.
