At St Paul’s Cathedral, a historic thanksgiving service was held to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth. The Queen did not attend the thanksgiving service because of experiencing some discomfort during Thursday’s platinum jubilee celebrations. Prince of Wales officially represented his mother at St Paul’s Cathedral.
The Duchess of Cornwall, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, Lady Louise and James, Viscount Severn, Princess Anne, Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Zara and Mike Tindall and Princess Michael of Kent and Prince Michael of Kent were present at the thanksgiving service.
Wonderful service but slightly disappointed by today's outfits. Camilla's coat is very nice but I would remove the embellishments up the sleeves. Whilst a fine hat I feel it doesn't quite go with the coat. Kate's dress is beautiful and in such a pretty shade. The hat is perfectly nice but I am somewhat bored of large flowers under the brim. Anne looks smart and elegant. I dont like the shiny fabric of Sophie's dress and the hat is boring. Megan's coat/is smart and appropriate but again a boring hat. Otherwise the only person who stood out was Sophie Winkleman wife of Lord Frederick. Yesterday's outfits were all fabulous and today just missed that special something. In my opinion.
ReplyDeleteA LOT of outfits to comment on. Love Kates yellow dress, the details and the color are beautiful. However not so much a fan of the flowers with the hat, could do without them.
ReplyDeleteI do not like the hat of Megan, it is too flat somehow, and the coat/dress is just that, more like an ordinary coat.
Love Camilla’s outfit, beautiful embroidery.
I like the orange color of Eugenies dress but the petrol blue of Beatrice is somewhat boring.
Finally, the dress of Sophie is okay, however not the open sleeves.

Meghan’s coat is about to explode in her arms and back. With access to everything from designers to dressmakers it’s difficult to understand.
ReplyDeleteKate looks perfection as ever. Louise is much better than yesterday.

I am also not a fan of that flap on the back, it is sticking out awkwardly. I'm not sure if it is a fit issue or what. Is it supposed to be a cape or like a flap on a trench? However, I do like the large collar.
DeleteChel
I read on another site (French) that the Duchess of Sussex's outfit is 100% total Dior, colour greige, which is the natural colour of silk.
DeleteThe article says that it is from Dior's 2022 spring/summer collection.
Shoes and gloves by Dior. Her hat is by Stephen Jones and was commissioned by Dior.
The ensemble is composed of a trench-coat, a skirt of wool and silk and an organza blouse.
In the photos the Duchess doesn't seem to be carrying a clutch/purse.
Zara Phillips is the biggest suprise for me though. She's looking soo beautiful - appears trendy and glamorous. Meghan's dresscoat is esquisite. Another smaller suprise is Eugenie for me though: PERFECT !
DeleteLikewise her sister Beatrice. Their choice of dresses fits with their personality and with their hubbys. I'm looking forward to see more of this EasterEggStyle, so lovely.
P.L.A.
General thoughts: all the Ladies were very well dressed and elegant. The men were also all very dashing.
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Cornwall and Princess Anne: true to themselves. Good outfits but not particularly remarkable.
The Duchess of Cambridge: absolute perfection from head to toe. How elegant in that perfect shade of yellow.
The Duchess of Sussex: A little boring. There's nothing remarkable about this dress/coat, and I didn't like the hat or the hairstyle. She should have switched with yesterday's.
Countess of Wessex: my favorite. What beautiful dress in that sparking color. Lady Louise was also very lovely. I love the dress in her and the headband was much better than yesterday's hat.
Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and Zara Tindall: a colorful delight. The dresses, even not my favorite, did look good on them. I was happy to see them all.
Overall, a very good example of the elegance and tailoring in the British Royal Family.
She was too naked yesterday to wear that dress inside a church.
DeletePal
Kate's dress is simply wonderful. The colour of Zara's dress is not to my taste. I also like the York sisters' outfits. Meghan's dress looks awkward from the back especially the upper part. I.P.
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Sussex's outfit is 100% Dior from head to toe.
DeleteIt is from Dior's spring/summer collection.
Everything is Dior ...... trench-coat, skirt, blouse, gloves, shoes, hat. (hat was commissioned for Dior).
@Pal, I haven’t been able to see the full outfit on the duchess of Sussex that she wore the day before, just far away pictures of her head, and she looked rather pretty, what do you mean she was “too naked”? Like Eugenie’s cut outs today?.
DeleteMy favorites are Meghan and Katherine, the first one impeccable in pure elegant white, the second one in a delightful lemon dress.
Cherry
Agree, Cherry. Meghan's off the shoulder dress from yesterday is no more revealing than Eugenie's cut-outs or Sophie's open back.
DeleteE.B.B.
If people are correct and she was wearing the dress she wore the day before the wedding her full arms were exposed and you don’t go into a cathedral like that.
DeleteEven from the pictures on the window you can see her shoulders and arms.
Pal
@Pal "If people were correct.."..."day before the wedding"..Now you've lost me. What wedding? What are you talking about? Put the glass down and explain please.
Delete-Anon 9:13
The Duchess of Cambridge for the sartorial win today...with Princess Beatrice coming in second- honorable mention to her truly elegant husband Count Mapelli-Mozzi.
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Sussex looks very beautiful but needs a pinch of color to break up the all white.
I am confused by Eugenie's decision to wear a dress with cutouts to St. Paul's Cathedral. But the color flatters her very much.
How beautiful are the Wessex children!
Forgot to mention Lady Sarah Chatto and Lady Frederick Windsor. Completely elegant and stunning, both of them!
DeleteVery sad the Queen couldn't assist to the service, hopefully we can see her during this weekend. On the other hand, Duchess Catherine, Countess Sophie and Princess Beatrice were my favorites, I think Lady Louise has a lovely face and this hairstyle was not favor her, otherwise she was looking beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLady Louise dress is beautiful,
ReplyDeleteDoC, Princess Anne, Princess Alexander, DoG,Lady Sarah Chatto and Lady Helen Taylor were the best dressed. CoW - nice dressbut makes her bulkier than she is. Nice dress for Lady Louise, but the way her hair is styled is a bit messy. Great colors for Zara, PE and PB, but poor fit, and a very strange cutout at the back of PE's dress. DoS - too narrow at the chest and strange trench detail at the back. Not the best dress option for Duchess of Cornwall - ysterday's choice was better. It maybe the effect on the picture, but her outfit looks as if it was washed and not ironed properly. Great occasion, though, and everyone made an effort.
ReplyDeleteSome very bright colours in the mix here. Love the colour on Beatrix. They all looked lovely but no doubt Catherine stole the show. What a wonderful queen she will be, fit for a king such as William (one day).
ReplyDeleteDee Jay
Wonderful comments...I agree with them all.
ReplyDeleteI am in awe about the butter-yellow dress of The Duchess of Cambridge. Excellent! The hat is good as well, with the minor quibble that it might be time to forego the exploding flowers under one side of the hat's brim. They clearly already have had their time. A major disappointment was the wife of the Mayor of London, Mrs. Saadiya Ahmed. Her all brown trouser-suit with a strange blouse underneath with untied strings/ribbons flying around loosely and no hat - horrible! And very predictable Princess Michael of Kent - always the same outfit.
ReplyDeleteI don't love the embellishment on Camilla's coat.
ReplyDeleteKate looks lovely but a somewhat predictable choice. I would have loved to see her in what Sophie Winkleman wore.
Beatrice looks good. She is wearing the blue version of Sophie's dress.
The fit of Meghan's dress is off. It pulls in the back and bust. Her hair, earrings and make-up are nice. I thought her hat and hair were perfection yesterday.
Orange is a good color for Eugenie. I don't like the mock neckline on the dress.
Louise big improvement from yesterday. The dress and headband feel more age appropriate.
I like Sophie's hat but her dress not flattering on her. The shimmery fabric reads more evening to me.
Gabriella Windsor looked lovely in her pale peach dress and hat.
E.B.B.
I fully agree, don't like the embellishment on Camilla's coat. I liked the dresses of Lady Louise, but not her hat on day1 and not a fan of today's headband neither, but she is lovely.
DeleteI like pic4 starting from the end : Jack sitting next Harry, a good choice for a relaxed atmosphere. The couple remained closer to their cousins than to brother William, from what we can see here, but not surprising.
My favorite outfit is Zara's dress and hat. A good compromise of originality, attractiveness and good taste, and suits her quite well.
This time Catherine was dressed better. The soft yellow (coat?)dress was very original and the design was not boring like usual. The hat was better than yesterday. Meghan's coat dress was very simple. Didn't like the trench flap in the back. The navy blue dress by Roland Mouret and the white hat she wore yesterday were much better. Sophie's dress was not bad at all. I love the fabric, a pity the hem was longer in the back. It is so much better when she is dressed shorter than usual. Lady Louise had a lovely dress, but it was too long and again the hat - the headband in this case - was not beautiful at all. She should wear little hats à la Jacky Kennedy (pill box type). Then there was Beatrice, Eugenie, Zara Tindall. When it was not the color, it was the length or the design that was not beautiful. On one of the last picture's Princess Anne, when talking to William, had a weird expression on her face.
ReplyDeleteI love Jacqueline Kennedy's classic pillbox hat, but I think Lady Louise might be a little young for that.
DeleteAgree in every aspect.
DeleteToo young for a pill-box hat ? But not too young to wear dresses that are too long and hats belonging to her mother ? Sometimes I do not understand what is considered young and old in Britain.
DeleteI think Catherine’s Freds was perfection and in her Majesty’s favorite colour !! Prinsessen Ann’s outfit: beautiful cut colour and material, very stylish !!
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose one of these outfits I would choose Meghans every single time. Loved it. The others ok. Nothing to go overboard over. All the hats could go straight to the bin. Not a fan. Kates dress ok, but not to keen on that yellow colour. Hope Lady Louise get her own stylist. A young lady shouldn't be afraid to wear bold young dresses. Nothing wrong with her dresses, but feel they are a bit to grown up.
ReplyDeleteI do not like the fit of the Duchess of Cambridge's dress. The criss cross in the front seems too high or something is off with the proportions and I don't love the color on her. She knocked it out of the park yesterday so this outfit today for me is a bit of a let down. The Duchess of Sussex's outfit did her no favors. I've seen her in dresses that are much more flattering.

DeleteThe Duchess of Sussex is dressed 100% by Dior. Everything she is wearing comes from Dior.
To me it is "chic" and a spot on choice for the occasion.
I think Zara looks the prettiest of all!! Beautiful color and style of dress and hat!! Camilla, yawn, Kate, yawn et al. And Lady Louise is growing into a beauty!!
ReplyDeleteWell, Catherine sticks to her uniform, which makes a lot of sense for her. I wouldn't expect exciting sartorial choices from her, which would rather distract from her role (look put together, support husband and family, don't distract from THEM).
DeleteEverybody is impeccable, although I think Louise always dresses a bit beyond her tender years and I'm not a fan of Zara's hot pink and one of the York sister's orange dress. The white fabric hanging off Meghan's neck/shoulders is strange, too. Anne, Catherine and Camilla are very appropriately and elegantly dressed.
ReplyDelete@quakeress@gmail.com
DeleteThe white fabric hanging off the Duchess of Sussex's neck and shoulders is part of a trench-coat design.
The coat is by Dior. It is their interpretation of a lady's trench-coat 2022 style.
Pas agréablement surprise par toutes les tenues de ces dames tant au niveau des styles que de l'harmonie des couleurs ; lady Louise n'a pas fait beaucoup d'efforts pour se coiffer en portant un serre-tête ordinaire sur ses cheveux ébouriffés ; j'adore la capeline légère de Meghan ainsi que ses boucles d'oreilles diamants que je pense avoir déjà vues ?!
ReplyDeleteAlmost everyone looked very nice. I did like Meghan's coat, but the material seem to be stiff,nothing flowy. I must say Edo ,Jack, Harry and Tom Kingston looked very well put together,everything fitting well.
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Sussex was the most beautifully dressed today in my opinion. Her hair, makeup and hat was also beautiful. Camilla and Zara Tindall were also beautiful. Sophie, Louise, Kate, Beatrice and Eugenie were OK.
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Cambridge looks very beautiful and elegant.
ReplyDeleteMeghan's coat/dress doesn't fit her well. It's funny how she always needs to be touching Harry.
@Kteach : The wedding wasn't all that long ago (2018). Maybe they haven't yet finished their honeymoon :-))
DeleteLady Louise had a nasty bruise on her lower leg. Wonder what happened, the poor thing, it must hurt.
ReplyDeleteThe ladies looked lovely, though not fond of Zara's pink/purple combination, nor the mayor's wife's pants outfit. Also not fond of the all white outfit Harry's wife wore, along with the the white gloves which she realized were not needed, and took off, before walking into the church. Anne's outfit has been worn before, cannot be sure, but it was to die for! ... Catherine and William were the standouts for calm, cool, yet open and friendly. Fergie's daughters, were dressed better than normal, though the shade of blue, and the orange colors were not my favorite, at least they fit fairly well. Loved Louise's dress, not fond of the checked frock Sophie was wearing.

ReplyDeleteThis is the photo I forgot to include in my comment about Lady Louise's injury on her leg.
Wow! Kate sartorial style is game on magnificent! Yesterday was beautiful, today glorious! A knockout is sunshine yellow. A beautiful dress, delightful hat and absolutely perfect makeup - that pink lip is perfection.
ReplyDeleteThe York sisters look very nice. Orange can be a hard colour to wear, however Eugenie wears it well.
It's Me
Actually Harry touches Meghan a lot too. They probably do this to reassure one another.
ReplyDelete@ Anonymous 4/6/22 04:44
DeleteI think you're right @Anonymous 4/6/22 04:44
To me it's a sign of someone respecting and caring for another.
I like all of the bright dresses and hats ;all the other people look bland and boring. Her Majesty is anything but bland and boring;she is energetic and built of tough stuff,that is why she has endured the test of time.God Bless Her Majesty.(Tara)
ReplyDeleteThe Duchess of Cambridge looked the complete package, elegant and stylish. I loved the crossover in front, adding interest, the color of her dress is such a pretty shade. Her hair was beautifully styled, love her hat. The beautiful pearl and diamond earrings are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteD of G her pearl necklace superb quality, gorgeous piece, her outfit suited her perfectly.
The Princess Royal looked immaculately groomed, loved her outfit, her choice of jewels, lovely pieces.
Meghan looked nice, but her Dior coat looked bland to me, the flap at the back, didn't sit right, I am not sure if it is a fit issue, the upper back and arms seemed quite compact. The hat I was not a fan of. I loved her diamond earrings, beautiful.
I love the styles of the ladies :-)
ReplyDeleteMy 'best dressed' are Sophie, Beatrice (I don't say that often) and Sophie Windsor (aka Sophie Winkleman). Well done, ladies!
Kate looks fantastic as always, it's her classy signature style from the last years but very nice, I especially love that kind of hats at her.
Lady Louise style is also very nice, I like her hair open like this. The dress is nice and appropriate for a young girl at church, I just would have taken other shoes and bag.
Sophie Essex looks fantastic from head to toe, love it!
Zara Tindall wears nice colours, the dress is good but not a wow for me, but I love the hat (which fits her husband also very nice ;-) )
Anne is classy, did we see this outfit before? I think so :-)
Eugenies outfit is not that bad but definately not my favourite. It is a bit to casual in my eyes.
Beatrice looks fantastic! I don't say that often about her outfits, but that's a really wow. The colour fits her perfect, the dress is very nice, accessories fit perfect, what more to say!
Camillas outfit is also a kind of signature outfit but I like it a lot! very nice!
Sophie Windsor/Winkleman looks fantastic! I love that colour, the hat is wonderful, hairstyle, makeup, everythings perfect! And so nice to see her giggling with Zara.
You really have to look a second, third, fourth time till you see, that Beatrice and Sophie Windsor wear the same dress, because the different colours make dramatically different outfits! :-)
Meghans outfit is ok, I would say appropriate. It's no stagetaking outfit and that's good, because they separated from the family and washed a lot of dirty laundry. I'm fine with the outift as long as I don't look at the back. From the frontside it looks like a nice white coatdress, but form the back you see that trenchcoat-idea (yes, she loves trenchcoats...) but this is to casual for me for that occasion.
I would have liked another head, but this one is ok.
The gloves are that 'to much' on that outfit.
Makeup and hair are nice.
Meghan wins. Kates dress is ok, but the colour is to blah. No one of these stands out to me. And they could throw these unflattering hats in the bin. Wish thouthat Lady Louise dressed younger. Look at your cousins. Should I wear any of these it would have been Meghans.
ReplyDeleteLady Louise looked very old in that nightgown, while mom Sophie choose a nice dress for her self..
ReplyDeleteWhat a whirlwind and taxing schedule for the Queen (even though she was not able to always be in attendance) and all the royals involved in the Platinum Jubilee celebrations!
ReplyDeleteAll the ladies look so fine ,each one in her own individual style.
Basically, I am impressed by Zara and Sophie's outfits donned over these past few days.
Zara's is spectacular in her hot pink ensemble, even though I am afraid to say that the colour is great but is not aptly complemented by her bag and shoes.
Sophie is surpring to say the least, she looks rejuvinated and is so beautiful with these soft curls hanging around her sweet face.
Her sartorial choices are on point and her updo is itself a work of art.
Well done.
Lady Louise is truly growing into a beautiful young lady, love her outfit, but not a fan of her headband.
She wears high heels with ease and confidence.
Kate is immaculately dazzling in her pale yellow dress, her make- up and updo are sheer perfection.
I would not change a single item of her look.
A special mention for the jaw- dropping array of jewelry from the royal ladies on this occasion and throughout all the celebrations.
