Royal Style: We are in need of pink diamonds!

Sorry about the glitch, this is our new thread smile 😊

I really like that blue dress on Mary

I love that dress. Anyone know where it’s from?

Just answered my own question. It’s Hobbs.

Apologies! It’s Marie not Mary. They do look similar. 😬

Also can you not edit posts anymore!

This has been a fast moving thread - I’m a bit behind.
So here’s Eugenie at the reopening of the Chiltern Firehouse after it’s…er…fire.
And the Sussexs popped up at a charity event hosted by Kevin Costner.

Is that a double breasted suit, Eugenie? I'm not a fan.
That's not a very flattering picture of Meghan, it's actually a Carolina Herrerra dress, and very flattering. I like the shape and colour.

Meghan always looks bundled up when she wears things tied around her waist.

Meghan has worn that dreadful dress somewhere else. She looks like a badly wrapped parcel.
Not sure about Eugenie's suit. It's a odd photo which doesn't help.

Meghan...don't do the waist thing please. I don't like fussy waist things on me. Some waists don't need that.

That's a terrible picture of Meghan! I saw some others of her at the event and she looked fine.

Thanks, Deftly, those are much more flattering images. It's a nice dress, she looks good as well, her hair is slightly different.

If you ignore the silly fangirling caption, there's some footage of H&M at the event and the dress looks lovely in motion.

It reminds me of the Carolina Herrerra dress she wore at the polo when newly married.

Different neckline, similar shape, colour at cut. One of my favourite looks.

Sorry, that image is hidden, I'm not sure why.

I had a halter neck black dress like Meghan's (Zara rather than Carolina!) that I loved. Alas postpartum weight loss meant it got far to big for me on top and I had to give it away, sad times!

That's a shame. Sometimes the post partum body looks completely different. I've never looked good in a halter neck because my shoulders are very small, it just never looks balanced.

I see that link and article are unhidden now.

Edward and Sophie in Japan.
Good thing Edward has no holes in his socks 😁

That's a better look for Edward, both in terms of colour and style. He could still do with Felipe's tailor, though. I like Sophie's dress and jacket.

Edward doesn't appear to have regained the weight he lost around the time of his parents deaths but still seems to have a few jackets that predate that loss of weight. They either need retailoring or retiring.

Edited to say I don't mean the jacket in the picture above but there have been a few recently that have left him looking a little swamped.

That's an awful photo of Meghan, but tbh, none of the others are much better. She's a beautiful woman, but I really wish she would learn to dress for the body type she has and not the one she wants to have.

The colour is lovely on her, but the belt cuts her in half and makes her torso look even boxier, plus she's got the belt sitting way too high - as always. The material is ok, but she doesn't need material that creases as much, it's obviously a feature with her, not a glitch now. The skirt shape & length doesn't do her any favours - just makes her legs look more twig like. The halter neck with the collar just adds to the boxiness. She should look glorious, yet never does nowadays. Frustrating.

Has she worn that dress before? At an Invictus event ?

Of topic, but Oprah has clearly been to the same plastic surgeon as Chris Jenner, she looks 20 years younger, not a line or droop on her face.

But in my view this dress fits her beautifully
