On May 19, 2022, Empress Masako, Crown Princess Kiko, Princess Nobuko and Princess Hisako attended the annual meeting of the Japanese Red Cross Society held at Meiji Jingu Kaikan Hall in Shibuya, Tokyo. Empress Masako attended the meeting for the first time in nearly three years due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Empress Masako is the honorary president of the Japanese Red Cross Society (JRCS).
Such an interesting blue collar and cuff detail on Masako's suit. It elevates a fairly nondescript cream suit to a different level, and I like that it is repeated on the pocket flaps and hat band. I wish that the IHA would change those style of hats - for all of them. It would make such a levitating difference!

(PS on another note, I was so looking forward to the Japanese Royals state visit to the UK that was derailed due to COVID in 2020. I suppose that with the Queen's Jubilee celebrations this year, and the Queens own health issues, as well as scheduling commitments on both sides, there's small chance of a rescheduling happening any time soon.)

DeleteMe too. I was looking forward to the state visit to the U.K.
I think it was planned for late 2020 but 'covid' got in the way.
I hope it is rescheduled asap.
Belle allure de Masako dans ce tailleur/jupe dont la couleur bleue sur les revers, le chapeau ainsi que sa pochette apporte une petite touche originale ; les chaussures comportent t-elles également du bicolore bleu et blanc ? --Presque le même style de chapeau pour toutes ces dames !
ReplyDeleteThe Empress looks beautiful. Her suit, hat and shoes with blue trim are very pretty. The pearl necklace and earrings are lovely. She stands out among the princess in their monochrome ensembles. (Debra)
ReplyDeleteThe identical hat styles needs to be gone. They look like step-ford wives
DeleteTheir collection of pearls is amazing.
DeleteThis outfit, with the interesting blue trim and worn with the two-toned shoes, is classic with a twist. An excellent look. I think E.Masako would suit a wide variety of hats, and I’d love to see her try some new ones. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteAgree with you, V.M.; also in my opinion EM is suitable for a wide range of hats other than this model with the much too wide ribbon

Empress Masako always classy. I am glad she is seen often now.
ReplyDeleteEmpress Masako looks very stylish, the blue detail is a great addition on her suit, her two tone shoes, which I love look great.
ReplyDeleteThe Empress is beautifully turned out. I love her suit and the spectator pumps. I so wish this style of hat would go away--it hides the ladies faces by sitting so low on their foreheads. Just tilt it up so their faces can be seen.

My oh my......... Empress Masako......... What elegance.
ReplyDeleteIf only the hat could be changed.
It seems to be a few sizes too big for her and her face gets lost under it.
I love the way she is standing in photo N° 6.
