Favourite Royal outfits

[PrettyFlyforaMaiTai]

Would anyone like to join me in my attempt to unite the board and discuss our favourite royal outfits (before it enviably turns into another bun fight 🤣)

I’ll start with my favourite Catherine outfits first…

Camilla can carry off the bling, too, without looking weighed down by it. I do like to see the tiaras in action at state occasions.

Charlotte's birthday pic is out. It sent me looking for pics of Lady Sarah Chatto, and I found this lovely simple and elegant outfit that she wore at the Coronation.

I saw the Charlotte Birthday picture. She looks like her Dad. Not sure the outfit is going to feature highly on threads like these though.

I don’t see or suspect the SPD at all and I’d consider myself very knowing regarding them

Emm. She also doesn’t wear well fitting bras. Or anything. Could be restricted to clothes.

Neither do a very big percentage of the female population.

Or anything. Could be restricted to clothes

But it’s not because it doesn’t exist.

Of the VE days service I thought Camilla looked fabulous , I thought Sophie looked lovely & I liked Catherine's dress ( and how nice to see it not referred to as "recycled" or as I would say "worn it again" 😂 ) I do think Camilla dresses really well 90% + of the time.

So here for the photographs.

@AuroraCake - your comment about dressing is very interesting. I like what think is "tactile" dressing. So eg I looked at Kate's wedding dress and just thought those sleeves can't be comfortable. I like things which are soft and comfortable but I didn't know it was a "thing" I might well google"

ETA I do think Samantha Cameron dresses well in an understated way. Not Royal but just adding it in.

Sophie Edinburgh wins!

Love the hats, Some pretty amazing confections on show!

Slightly off topic but is Boris Johnson getting even scruffier?

Samantha Cameron looking good as usual.

Not keen on Camilla's blanket stitch coat.

Camilla's wearing wide black trousers tonight and an interesting-looking coat. I'd like a closer look at it.

Today I thought the queen looked great, not sure about the gloves - seems dated.

Sophie looked frumpy as always, Kate looked perfect but prissy. Loved Sam Cam’s outfit.

I thought Sophie looked nice - I loved Camilla's blanket stitch coat - I thought Kate's dress was lovely but not entirely sure about the hat . I thought a wee bit fussy with a polka dot dress.

I thought Priti Patel looked lovely.

I have been out but must look for Camilla this evening.

Kate's dress is fine but why on Earth did she choose to accessorise with those horrible brown shoes and bag? Black accessories would have looked so much crisper.

Camilla’s coat is a re-worked version of a coat that was a gift to Charles by a Saudi designer many years ago. It makes a great evening coat.

As ever, reliable info from Serenster. Thank you.

Duchess of Gloucester always looks good 👍

I liked Catherine’s white outfit last night, although I don’t think white’s her colour.

That is a gorgeous outfit!

I don’t think Kate suits white. She suits rich colours.

If I see a bow in someone’s hair I will always always think of it as a ‘Fergie bow’.

I think Kate’s far too old for a bow in her hair. Looks silly.

It's very 80s, a bit odd.

I do agree with the bow but when I was in my Laura Ashley sailor top era - this is the nearest I can find https://frockery.co.uk/products/laura-ashley-80s-vintage-white-sailor-blouse Too Sloane for words but we all did it , albeit we did not live with the sound of Sloane Square underground station - it was with that or Affleck's palace on the train who sold cropped dinner jackets I did have a selection of vintage hair bows. I also am old enough that I remember the bows you could clip on your shoes to jazz them up a bit. Actually I am minded to get another bow hair clip - because I am old enough I remember them fondly , I don't care if anyonone thinks it is frumpy & also my near neighbour who is French and dresses fabulously often wears one.
I am in my 7th decade and I shall wear what I choose - 😂😎 But enough about me. I realise I wasn't a fashion influencer in my youth - not then , not now 😂
