Kate's dress and hat were more appropriate for the occasion.  She (or her team?) has impeccable taste.[/quote]

Kate looks perfect, as usual.  I don't care for MM's hat.  It looks like like a sun hat for the beach.  But hats are hard to pull off or most, especially Americans that aren't used to buying and wearing them formally.  Her dress is fine, but did she not keep the cape on? Someone mentioned bare arms..[/quote]
The cape is part of the dress — she didn’t take it off. The “bare arms” squeals came from the forearms peeking from under the cape. More ridiculous headlines used against MM and no one else (similar to the OMG! They’re holding hands!! cry). [/quote]

I made the bare arms comment.  I didn’t see it criticized in the press.  I just prefer arms covered at funerals and other solemn events.  I don’t think she looks trashy, I was just making a comment about her fashion choice.  I’m also one of those people who thinks women should only wear closed-toe shoes to the office.  It’s just an opinion.[/quote]
Sophie had bare arms and hands, but she wasn't called trashy. Not one person criticize her lack of gloves and her elbow length dress.[/quote]

Exactly. People look at Meghan and think "what can I criticize about this." They look at other members of the royal family and look for things to praise. It's really transparent.[/quote]

Bc she didn’t have bare arms.  Nice try.[/quote]
Actually she did. There's a picture with all the women and  Sophie had elbow length dress without gloves. I personally did not see a problem with her dress. It was quite lovely, but then again, I also thought all the women, including MM looked quite lovely.[/quote]

+1 You can see exactly the same amount of Sophie’s arms and Meghan’s arms,

You’re joking right? So in that one angle they are showing the same amount of arm? You are honestly comparing a coat dress to a cape dress.

Ditch the hat, change the shoes and Meghan was basically wearing a cocktail dress. [/quote]

She’s wearing a black calf length dress with a high neck that does not fit very close to her body. Cocktail dress? Because you can see her forearms? You’re on crack.

I honestly think part of the issue here is that unlike most of the royals except Kate, MM is a young(ish), attractive, stylish woman. She shows them up looks wise just by showing up. She had to learn to dress as a young working actress with minimal access to stylists (she would not have been able to afford them until the last few years if her career). She us naturally very beautiful and [b]knows how to wear clothes to make herself look good. [/b]Most of the royals don’t. She looks amazing and they look okay so she gets criticized for “breaking protocol” but the rules are very selectively enforced against her out of spite.[/quote]

You say this but she has had VERY unfortunate outfits in the last couple of years.  The loose drapey pink pantsuit in NYC, the red ballgown with weird bustline that looked like she stuck two soapdishes to her chest, the white trousers with weird pleats...Meghan is on record as saying she styles herself as this was "one of the last things she had control over", but the downside of that is you have no one to tell you when something you picked doesn't work, and you begin to rely on wishful thinking rather than on cold hard looks in the mirror.[/quote]

I don't know of this drapey pink pantsuit you speak of, but I know the red ballgown and the Brandon Maxwell pleated pants and neither were a fashion misstep. That dress had a slightly weird bustling but was an absolutely stunning color on her with this magnificently dramatic train -- the photos from that event were fantastic and she looked great. The pleated pants are perfectly on trend and she has the figure to pull them off, plus they were well styled with a cut away tank and perfectly hemmed (which is often where wide-leg pants go wrong). She looked great.

I took a blanket and made some pants
