Clothes at the Commonwealth Service

[upinaballoon]

I liked them.

I have a question about Catherine's two-piece. What was the white motif on the navy background, please? I can't make it out. It looks more than all things like a turtle to me, but my eyes might deceive me.

I liked all the beige and rose clothes of one of the choirs - all different combinations of styles and outfits within a certain spectrum of colours. Lovely.

Did anything catch your eye?

were the mens suits nice?

I thought Catherine's outfit aged her, too mumsy and fussy. She's got a great figure though.

I thought Kate looked a frump. The peplum, the pattern, the dated earrings, the hat. Very safe, very mumsy.

The peplum looked ridiculous, she has no waist or hips so it was just straight up and down above and below. She always seems to wear any waist band (as does Meghan Markle) at an awkwardly high point, where a natural waist wouldn’t be.

It almost annoys me, her figure is fantastic, I want to put her in the hands of a great stylist.

Yes - she needs a stylist. She's tall and slim and could look amazing and stylish. I have never seen her looking remotely fashionable - just safe and dull.

oh I like Kates outfit(and wills suit)

I know you are trying to make a point here, but suits are really fucking boring

Catherine's outfit is Erdem, I believe. The jacket is beautifully constructed, if not particularly trendy. The earrings and brooch were Diana's.

I liked Kate's outfit but she has too many outfits that she only wears once. I really think she should 'repeat' dresses more often.

Sophie looked lovely. Camilla looked knackered. Charles was impeccably turned out as always.

The white details are flowers.

Oh no I thought she'd given up the horrid peplums.

I thought Kate looked beautiful.

No waist - are you blind ?! She looks fantastic. The ‘dated’ earrings were Diana’s - sapphires don’t date

Amazing - not loving Sophie’s look - that hat reminds me of the one mega in had and it looked awful on her as well

Cool lining as well on the skirt

Just had to look it up. I think she looks stunning.

Did you see how it was lined? Really beautifully made. I hate peplum and frills so I didn't like it at first but it's actually grown on me. I loved her hat. Unfortunately her brooch was lost in the pattern..

I always thought William took after Diana's family but I just caught a picture of him out of the corner of my eye and I thought it was Prince Edward. So he's definitely got Windsor genes there.

The brooch was a present from King Charles - prince of wales feathers or something

Camilla looked knackered.

Not as knackered as Ginger Spice!

That yellow in the background is Republic.

Camilla seemed to be having a few problems with her skirt in the wind. She didn't hang around to watch the dancers. Beautiful colour though.

I thought Catherine looked incredible, Erdem isn't my cup of tea but that outfit was gorgeous on her.

I feel horribly sorry for Camilla, she must be hating this life she now has - she strikes me as happiest when at home surrounded by her grandkids and dogs, not on parade like this. She must really love Charles to be doing it. It's aged both of them 10 years since HM passed away.

Oh wow Catherine looks stunning!

I’d personally have opted for a white hat to break the blue up but she looks lovely. I really like her hair too.

William looks very handsome too!
