Very elegant, I can't work out the shoes, though.

I love those photos of Max, she has such great style. The cockpit photo though! 😆

That's a really flattering shaped suit on Kate particularly the trousers but I don't like the colour and the fact the t-shirt is the same colour.

She is looking a lot more modern in these newer suits vs what she used to wear. The hair is still a little dated though.

Came across Max on Instagram was an interview during the UN conference. Very intelligent woman, very political debate about a hot potato subject affecting the UK, mentioned on this forum recently. She was very pro and listed the reasons why, left my mouth hanging open. Our royals just don't get involved in this way. Their hands are much more tied. Mustn't embarrass the government, or the people.

She'd be a damn good politician.

Yes, that suit colour was a bit diarrhoea for me.

It's a nice olive colour on Instagram. I don't think The Telegraph photo does it justice.

And the stilettos! I wish she’d leave them at home occasionally, particularly when wearing trousers. It’s not as if she’s short.

She has a long body so the high heels balances her proportions. I don't normally like them but think they work with the suit style.

MrsFinkelstein · 09/10/2025 20:02

I really like the cut and colour of the suit on Catherine, I personally really love the colour, it's very modern.

Would have liked to have seen a different colour shirt under it though? Not sure what, maybe another jewel colour?

BlouseyBrowne · 09/10/2025 20:09

Black underneath would’ve been better with some chunky black loafers or brogues. But Kate’s not giving up on the dated courts.

smilesy · 09/10/2025 20:50

Love the suit and the colour, although I might have chosen a different top to break it up a bit. Maybe the same colour but with a a pattern 🤔

PoppySeedBagelRedux · 09/10/2025 21:28

It seems that that colour really suits her. I would hate it on me but I think it looks really good on her. I think she looks great, and the trousers are long-enough to hide those old-fashioned shoes.

HollyhockDays · 10/10/2025 16:26

I’ve seen various photos of the suit and it looks a different coloured in each of them! I agree different shoes might have been better. I liked her piece on phones / screens.

Maireas · 10/10/2025 17:54

Yes, I like it, her hair too, which looks slightly different.

That's a good look, love the necklace

Me too, she doesn't often wear chunky necklaces, I really like it with the suit.

And here's Queen Mary looking chic at a meeting of the Queen Mary Committee at the Queen Mary Centre. The centre was launched the year she turned 50, you may have heard something about those celebrations...

@KiIIingMeDeftly - I do recall hearing something about that at the time! Mary looks nice, I love her specs.

To add insult to injury it's the same price in dollars as it is in pounds.

That's not good ☹️
