Part 3 of a nice, unproblematic thread to discuss some of the fab outfits from the Duchess of Sussex, and some of the many great causes she (and Harry) and Archewell supports. h/t @queentim for the original threads.

I really liked this outfit and the way the skirt flowed as she walked - really good choice and quite pared back compared to some other people on the red carpet.

I'm assuming it's a blanket idiot statement @AliceOlive , for anyone who doesn't kneel at the alter of fabulousness that is the Sussex's!

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 14:20

I like the outfit but don’t kneel. Where does that leave me? 🤣

jeffgoldblum · 29/01/2024 14:21

Half in , half out ? 😉🤣🤣🤣

Do you think H was sober when he was photoed naked cupping his bollocks in his hand on a pool table? My eyes have never recovered.

You don't know much about rugby then 🤭

Why on earth did you do that to yourself? Thank goodness the British papers refused to publish the pictures.

It was online. I didn't search for it, just BAM there it was. Not his finest hour. Deer in the headlights, I would say.

Actually I do, I have sat with my ex as he got his face stitched back together after a stud went into his face. He never behaved like that, though. He had too much respect for himself.

Don't you believe it. I've seen the lot having worked in a well known Rugby Club in my youth. I've seen more bare arses than you can imagine! Especially when they win...

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 14:13

Or maybe you meant someone else when you called people here idiots. 🤣

@AliceOlive Without reading all the post I’ve seen a few idiotic comments, but that’s par for the course on these threads 🤷🏽‍♀️.

Thank you. I've seen it all too 😂

@Roussette
You were warned about hanging about the changing rooms though

That made me laugh out loud! 🤣😂

Wish it was just that!

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 14:12

@Dweetfidilove you may have missed that one of the posters you are aiming at lived in the Caribbean and knows it quite well. She indicated so subtly so you can be forgiven for not realizing it if that is the case. But that’s why it all went quiet after her post.

Or more likely her posts were laughed at and ignored, because I wouldn't know anyone, save you, who would actually question why it rains in "the Caribbean".

People can say they have lived or worked, or experienced anything, anywhere. Wouldn't believe everything you read on the internet

pipsfromthefuture · 29/01/2024 18:32

That's alot of bum 😂

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 18:33

I don’t actually think so, whoever you are! 🤣

Also, not sure how you “know” me as I’ve never heard of you.

It seems you are actually arguing against the point others were trying to make here.

Daisyislazy · 29/01/2024 18:42

@Roussette 🤣

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 18:45

Also not sure why you are putting that phrase in quotes when several posters who have lived there wrote it the same way.

I’d love to get back to the discussion about Meghan’s fashion.

FloofCloud · 29/01/2024 19:09

@AliceOlive - I have zero respect or like for M&H ... but in this instance I quite liked her skirt - thought it was paired poorly though with the top and it seemed To Be too high up On her waist - but did like her skirt

Hilarious! ... if anything they're grasping what they can get 😂

MaturingCheeseball · 29/01/2024 22:48

I thought Meghan’s outfit was nice for the official photos - it just looked a bit ott when they were seated amongst more casually-attired people.

A meedja person was telling me that H&M were invited to give the film attention: free flight and top accommodation a small price to pay for all the publicity - no matter that they are divisive - for a film that was going under the radar a bit.

AliceOlive · 29/01/2024 23:27

I need a new wool coat and like so many that Meghan has worn. I bought one on sale from Calvin Klein but it got here and was uuuge despite me following their sizing guidance. I also didn’t love the wool blend - it had less wool and more whatever. Taking it back.

As this thread is also about the causes M&H champion, here's the latest update from Archewell on their work with families "to provide a support network for parents dealing with grief or who have children managing serious mental health conditions as a result of their exposure to harmful online content"

""Over the past few years, we have spent time with many of these families, listening to their heartache and their hopes for the urgent change that is needed in the online space," Harry and Megan's statement continued. "This is an issue that transcends division and party lines, as we saw today at the Senate hearing."
"The best parenting in the world cannot keep children safe from these platforms," Prince Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, said.
Meghan and Prince Harry have spent years working together with the relatives and loved ones of victims, and used their feedback to present suggestions to political leaders on how a positive change could be made. "

It's pretty astonishing that despite years of talk about this issue, including at yesterday's US congressional hearings at which Mark Zuckerberg and other tech leaders were "grilled", online platforms continue to spew misinformation and conspiracy theories, harass and cyber bully, urge teens to self-harm and suicide, etc etc - feels like it's even getting worse.

Do enough of the people with the ability to drive change really, really care? Doesn't seem that clear-cut, given the lack of progress...
