On May 28, 2023, Prince Albert II and Princess Charlene of Monaco attended the gala dinner of the F1 Grand Prix of Monaco at the Monte-Carlo Sporting (Salle des Etoiles) in Monaco. Jazmin Grace Grimaldi was also present at the gala dinner. The Monaco Grand Prix is a Formula One race that takes place annually in the Principality of Monaco.
VALENTINO One sleeve two-tone silk cady gown
Lovely first photo of Charlene. The dress again.... No.
ReplyDeleteMaybe she is pregnant
DeleteAgree...my goodness i really think she shod consider a new stylist??? She is a beaut..but her fashion choices is not ideal...
DeleteSo i read that this dress is $11,000, sadly it does not do her any good.
Deletebut nice to see her coordinating with step-daughter Jazmin, who looks flawlessly stylish.
Princess Charlene looks adorable.
DeleteThe dress is very beautiful, but it looks like she has normal weight now, if she is too thin that is imho better.

Delete8:31 no need to scream. We get that you don't like her, but have you any idea what your
Deletebodyshaming and nastiness say about yourself?
Princess Charlene is beautiful and elegant. A real lady. I have to agree the dress does not do her justice. She needs a new stylist.
DeleteThis is much better in every respect. The dress suits her quite well.
ReplyDeleteOo no. Terrible designer..sjould gey a mew designer
DeleteAgree with MaryT. Respect in every aspect.
DeletePrincess Charlene is looking beautiful.
DeleteKay
La silhouette de Charlène supporte bien ce style de robe ; superbe Jazmin Grace !
ReplyDeleteCharlene looks great. Hair and make-up are perfect, really nice accessories. It's not a very flattering dress on anyone, that's the kind of dress it is. I think it suits her very well, more than the model. She looks great, I hope she feels great also.
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's not a dress that flatters the body, but I think she looks great. Hair, makeup, accessories are just perfect.
DeleteChel
100% Agree.
DeleteIt may be Valentino but it looks like a beach coverup which does no favors to Charlene since it does not suit her figure at all!
ReplyDeleteAgree - frumpish
DeleteAbsolutely!! Wrong dres for her!!
DeleteI like the creativeness in Valentino’s design.
DeleteBut then comes a problem in finding somebody who is not a professional model to wear it.
Princess Charlene almost fits the bill.
Viewed from the side, it’s O.K. but viewed straight on, it doesn’t look good.
Deadeggs, I think this gown is unfortunate irrispective of the woman who wears it.
DeletePss Charlene was once a professional swimmer and a model herself and that' s why she can pull it off as far as we can view from the side .
Her makeup is fabulous and her skin is luminous.
ReplyDeleteI agree, she’s glowing and looks so healthy! I actually like the brown hair on her. MR
DeleteHair and make-up: beautifull; dress: another formless thing,
ReplyDeleteMabel
Some women like to wear "formless' dresses, if it suits them why not. Charlene has several of those.
DeleteHahaha true
DeleteMy thoughts exactly!
DeleteThey make a handsome couple Albert and Charlene. The contrasting colours suit her
ReplyDeleteI'd hardly call him handsome.
DeleteHe was handsome when he was younger and more physically active. Just saying.
DeleteNo for both dresses! She looks huge?!!
ReplyDeleteThat’s exactly my thought too! The dress does not fit her. Otherwise she looks great.
DeleteAnd when did we stop using a ounce of decency when we talk about other people?
DeleteUgly dress
ReplyDeleteThe dress looks fantastic on the model, but less so on Charlene. It makes her look very...wide. In the second photo it looks very shapeless. A pity because she could have looked stunning in it. Perhaps there are more photos online where we can see better views of how she wore it.

Pragtig Charlene!!
ReplyDeletePragtig Charlene! Emma
ReplyDeleteShe looks so pregnant in that dress, please can someone style this lady. Her hair looks terrible in that dark colour.
ReplyDeleteLovely woman. Ugly dress
ReplyDeleteOh what a horrible dress. Surely she can do better.!!
ReplyDeleteAnother shapeless and non-flattering but very expensive dress. She looks so boxy in this kaftan-like dress. Only the make-up and the earrings are perfect.
ReplyDeleteJ'adore la coupe de cheveux, la couleur et la robe. l00% sur toute la ligne. Rose.
ReplyDelete😂 😂 😂 While Paris burns
ReplyDeleteCharlene looks beautiful (her face and hair). I even like this dress, I just wished it didn't have that white bit in the middle. Otherwise I think she looks really lovely and healthy. The darker hair colour suits her.
ReplyDeleteT
Her makeup and jewelry are flawless, but I don’t like the dress at all. For someone with P. Charlene’s enviably strong shoulders, this style just hangs like a tent, making her look enormous. (V.M.).
ReplyDeleteI like the hair and makeup. Both dresses absolute Fail
ReplyDeleteLovely, dark hair suits her. The dress has movement, had her arm been in front of her for the photo the black sleeve would of broken up the white. Looks comfortable to wear
ReplyDeleteOnce again....needs to be nipped in at the waistline.
ReplyDeleteShe is a very pretty young lady. I love her hair and makeup. Not a fan of the dress - would have been better had the white panel also been black.
ReplyDeleteLove this dramatic and elegant dress. Ladyofthemanor
ReplyDeleteI think she might be pregnant. Two dresses in a row that are loose and no waistline. It’s possible! And I prefer this Valentino one over the navy/rainbow sheath she wore yesterday.
ReplyDeleteIs she pregnant perhaps..terrible dresses lately. And weight gain
ReplyDeleteBehave like an adult please.
DeleteShe looks beautiful but so sad.
ReplyDeleteI think so
DeleteStop thinking....
DeleteJazmin looks like she's trying to copy Ivana Trump. Makes her look much older than she is.
ReplyDeletewhen celebrities wear the same dress we ask who wore it best, when Jazmin does we say she is trying to copy.
Deletems
Pretty Lady, hair colour suits her. Dress ? Disappointing! Charlene CAN do better and yes, wear something to flatter her figure.
ReplyDeleteWow such harsh comments 😪
ReplyDeleteSad, isn't it? It seems people have forgotten their manners.
Delete👏👏👏
DeleteIt’s a tent, a zebra-crossing tent.
ReplyDeleteOn a more positive note, Love her hair and makeup!
//AA
Ich denke sie ist schwanger. Schon zur Krönung von Charles habe ich mir das gedacht.
ReplyDeleteShe very well could be pregnant especially since she's stopped coloring her hair. A lot of women stop using harsh chemicals on their hair while pregnant for fear it might hurt the fetus. Hmmm.
DeleteHer hair is coloured.
DeleteCharlene looks really quite awful in this sack of a garment. Her hair color change is also not a good look for her. Agnes
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: Jy is ñ pragtige mens!! Van kop tot tone!!! Bly so
ReplyDeleteShe looks terrible in that dress. She has a beautiful figure , why cover it up.???
ReplyDeleteI think she often wears unflattering outfits. At the coronation of King Charles, the same unflattering clothing. I think, too, that her very short hair creates a harsh, Spartan look. She has the potential to look so beautiful. But,... she could be pregnant
ReplyDeleteI also honestly believe she must be pregnant. She is an extra ordinary beautiful woman and she can wear almost anything, but truly these dressers are not good choices.
ReplyDeleteOh Charlène... such a gorgeous woman, such awful and odd fashion choices. The first picture got me very excited - I love the hair, the makeup, the jewellery and I rejoiced at the thought of a black gown with simple, clean lines. Then the rest of the dress popped into the picture. Charlène is slim and well trained, but she is a tall woman. These shapeless dresses make her look huge and overpower everything and everyone who's in the picture with her. I always feel bad about criticizing her, because clearly she feels somewhat uncomfortable or at least self-conscious about her body - and I can totally understand the wish to wear more roomy, loose clothes on a personal level. So I'm not going to say too much and just hope she had a lovely dinner, because that dress is perfect to hide any excess portion!
ReplyDelete-Nika-
Not the best look for Charlene. This gown just hangs there. I do like Jazmine's gown but is she trying to copy? someone, it don't work. css
ReplyDeleteThis current hair color (maybe a bit too dark) is preferable to the just about gray that she had been wearing. Also, she has regained the weight she lost during her illness. Hope this "new" Charlene is reflective of happiness and contentment in her personal life.
ReplyDeleteIs it just me or did one day Princess Charlene look slim and trim with gowns that were more tailored and then overnight she looked fuller and thick with loose gowns as if to conceal that she has gained some weight. None the less I think she is still beautiful but I do wish she would put some highlights in her hair or lighten it some. I do not know Jazmins age but her gown looks much to mature for her and not youthful!
ReplyDeletePlease, don't be mean and don't body shame her. She has a bold sense of fashion and she looks healthy and happy, which is the most important thing.
ReplyDelete-B.
@Anon 22:27, STOP YOUR ADVICE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteAva
Stop being so aggressive Ava.
DeleteI agree with you. It amazes me how cruel and insensitive people can be.
DeleteThere is the possibility that HSH is on medication-related to her long absence and her illness-that has caused her to gain weight.
In any case she remains a striking, statuesque woman worthy of her title.
Leave her alone..
It is absolutely body shaming. Even speculation on a possible pregnancy is out of line. Her body size and shape, whether larger or smaller, isn't anyone's business! Everyone doing it needs to get a life.
DeleteI was shocked at Jazmine Grace. Her dress is striking and fits well but ages her—along with the matronly hairspray-look updo. Another poster mentioned an Ivana Trump resemblance—I agree. Charlene has lovely makeup and jewelry. Dark hair is fine. The dress is confusing, unflattering and odd. Wondering what is going on.
ReplyDeleteThis gown adds volume and width. Her diamond earrings and bracelet are beautiful. Her makeup looks fabulous, love the darker color of her hair. Jasmin looks pretty in her gown.
ReplyDeleteI’d love to know if Princess Charlene’s make-up artist does home visits?.
DeleteHer make-up is aways perfect, spot on and complements what she is wearing.
Work done by a true professional.
p.s. He/she would have to give extended payment terms.
Valentino or not Valentino it is awful design and everyone would look ugly in that piece of cloth.
ReplyDeleteAva
I actually love the dress, but more for an editorial photo shoot as opposed to an event where still photos are taken.
ReplyDeleteLa princesse Charlene a tout simplement opté pour les robes extra large à la mode cette année et elle les porte admirablement bien. J'en ai moi-même acheté trois, mais cependant pas de Valentino pour moi, mais bien un styliste italien du nom de Froccella. Je les adore et elles m'ont attiré à ce jour plusieurs commentaires flatteurs. En ce qui regarde sa nouvelle coiffure et couleur, je n'étais pas enthousiaste pour les cheveux bruns mais, sur les photos ci-dessus, la couleur avec un maquillage un peu plus accentué que celui de la veille, lui va à ravir. Enfin une princesse qui se distingue des autres royaux, exception faite pour la reine Maxima qui elle aussi, n'hésite pas à suivre la mode du jour. ROSE.
ReplyDeleteThere are only two possibilities here. One is that is is pregnant but for some bizarre reason the house of Grimaldi doesn’t want to make an announcement on the happy occasion (why? seems hard to understand). Second possibility is that is undergoing some medical treatment that makes her hormones hard to control hence the weight gain. Otherwise (like others have pointed out) such surprising body transfer is difficult to explain.
ReplyDeleteRegardless, my heart goes out to this young lady. I truly hope she is happy and healthy. From what transpires from the media, she looks depressed and unwell. I hope I am wrong.
Petra
This dress doesn't even look good on the model. Big, "No!" from me.
ReplyDeleteCharlene está más guapa que nunca, se la ve natural y feliz. El vestido no me gusta porque aumenta su cuerpo demasiado.
ReplyDeleteI just think she is at a point when her self-esteem is low due to the weight gain and she feels so sad and I feel for her because her weight is not where it usually is. It is nice though seeing her at more events now more than ever before. she is still so special!!
ReplyDeleteWtf is wrong with people. We get nastier and nastier every day that goes. Do we think sitting behind a computer, phone or whatever that we can behave like Donald Trump and just spew out nastiness and bodyshaming of a fellow human being? Come on we learned as kids how to behave with respect. I think we should all take a good look at ourself and how we behave. We wouldn't like hearing this crap about ourselves or our family. Would we? So why do we think it's OK to talk about any one else like this then. Is this what we learn our kids and grandkids? No wonder the world is going down the toilet. Are really ashamed reading all this crap.
ReplyDeleteYes, we the bloggers on this site are a really bad lot.
DeleteThank you @Anon16:28 (no nick name) for pointing it out.
We should all be sent off to do hard labour in Siberia.
Hello everyone.
ReplyDeleteRight, someone has decided to ditch Princess Charlene at all costs instead of speding her time on healthy upper body, abs and legs workout, healthy nutrition and a positive attitude towards life and people in general.
Well done!
This is not one of the best staples in Charlene's closet for sure but she looks lovely regardless.
Her make- up is flawless and the touch of a professional hand is clear.
By the wapy, make- up and hair have a lot to do with fashion as well.
Looking at close up pics, I can see a perfect contouring technique, baking and and a quite interesting blending of shades especially around the eye creases.
Stunning.
Could I ask all of Charlene's detractors to shift their attention- from her gown to her makeup and give an informed outline about it?
I'll be waiting for any report from sharp eye onlookers.
I'd be glad if we could share opinions about makeup techniques.
Thank you.
* Diss (not ditch) Charlene
