Lovely sweet dress, underlining her warm personality,

Absolutely, she looks wonderful.

Indeed!
DeleteAnd remaining faithful to London designers/fashion houses.
DeleteThis is an OK dress, pretty much within her usual style, like the espadrilles!! But why, why, won’t she wear a proper brassiere with natural lift and support?

So many dresses on this trip but I didn't see even one dress which I can say it is in good taste. Summery outfits can be elegant also. All look like from the discount store on the wrong side of the river. LOL

The wrong side of the river? Wow!!!
DeleteThe shoes may be comfortable but they’re hideous and ruin this dress. again the pattern is nice and I like the cap sleeves but, even without the awkward sandals, it’s too long.
ReplyDeleteI agree. The shoes ruin the whole look.
DeleteThis dress I like. Fits the occasion and does not look at odds with what others are wearing.

A cotton dress makes sense given the outdoor venue and warm temps, but it could be more flattering with a better print or color and more structure. Espadrilles also make sense but the design of this pair is too busy and unfortunately grabs attention.
ReplyDeleteI like this dress very much, I also like her espadrilles IMO they look good with this dress. The pendant necklace is very pretty. She is doing such marvellous work, what an inspirational woman she is, quietly gets on with it. Some of these images are very moving. Well done to her.
ReplyDeleteBeaucoup de douceur dans les couleurs de cette tenue aux jolis petits boutons blanc nacré ; non, non pour les espadrilles qui sont lacées à hauteur du bas de la robe !

ReplyDeleteHer personality really shines in these pictures! As for fashion, it's a decent dress and the colours suit her well. I'm not too fond of the dress being not lined or printed on both sides of the fabric and while the espadrilles fit in general, I wish there was a bit more space between the hem and the ties.

What a great Ambassador she is for this worthy cause. Preventing Blindness, should be a natural thing, we are in the 21st Century are we not. I like this dress. I must say she really likes to be in Malawi. For a Royal These charities are lifelong commitment that I like to see. css
