For those who think H&M should have worn the merch, for which country? Or should they dress in the volunteers uniforms?

Invictus merch, as Harry wore, not country specific. As another poster has said, she can wear what she wants, and she chose not to put a global spotlight on Invictus branded clothes.

@IAmATorturedPoet where was that photo taken?

KingTutting · 12/02/2025 21:59

I thought Prince Charles gave them a spending budget for clothes yearly. Which is why Catherine rewears things and mixes in high street stuff. Royal Tours are work so there’s a separate budget for that.
i think most people think it’s Invictus paying for her clothes and they haven’t said it’s not true despite it being reported widely and Harry being very litigious.

would you not then be complaining they earn enough and could buy their own coats rather than take freebies?!

Anything from here would work:

It must be so annoying when photographic evidence is produced of real working royals wearing the merch for events!

Thedom · 12/02/2025 22:08

Meghan just participated in her one and only sport-like event, tubing, and she didn't wear Invictus mech while participating in that. .

IAmATorturedPoet · 12/02/2025 22:09

@JoyousGreyOrca you’re moving the goalposts (again)

BigWillyLittleTodger · 12/02/2025 22:10

Here, have one of these @JoyousGreyOrca

Catherine wasn't jointly hosting Wimbledon with the organisers.

Catherine wearing a dress, not branded clothing, at Wimbledon.

She has a ribbon in Wimbledon’s colours on!

Catherine wearing non branded dress at Paris Olympics. Show me the posts on MN criticising her? There were none.

That dress is from Wimbledon (you can tell by the ribbon with the colours). They didn't go to the Paris Olympics in 2024, but did send a video of support while she was undergoing treatment, when she wore the striped top.

If you can be bothered to google there are lots of photos of Catherine in William in various Team GB branded items from the 2012 Olympics while they were watching events.

Thedom · 12/02/2025 22:17

Purple and greenhave been Wimbledon's colours for over a century.

Serenster · 12/02/2025 22:18

Indeed, Grouchykiwi. Here’s Kate in 2012 (the only Olympics she has attended) in three different outfits featuring aTeam GB jacket, a t shirt and a scarf

Camilla and Elizabeth never wore branded sports clothing. But strangely people were not on here complaining about them wearing expensive clothing.

Oh so now it’s just Queen Elizabeth and Camilla, as it’s been disproven that Catherine is more than happy to wear “branded clothing” 🙄 But, but, but!!! Queen Victoria didn’t wear branded clothing!!!

MummyJ12 · 12/02/2025 22:22

Invictus is also universal. It covers all teams. It’s a no brainier.

MummyJ12 · 12/02/2025 22:24

Just a few examples of the Royals supporting rather than wearing Hermès.

I will concede I have never seen QEII wearing any merch. Given she was my Gran's generation, I'll give her a pass.

I do not give a shit if they wear branded clothing or not. My point is that Royals appear at sporting events and do not wear branded clothing and none of you criticise that. But when Meghan does it, you all criticise her. Its sheer hypocrisy
