[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yes the neckline is weird but the dress is a stunner anyway, sorry but show me a British royal other than Kate who has EVER looked this good in anything. [/quote] There is no such thing as a stunning dress with a weird neckline. The neckline frames your face, which is the most important thing about a person. When the neckline is screwed, so is the rest. We aren't running a contest within the BRF, we're evaluating Markle on her own merits against the claimed label of a good dresser. But yes, come to think of it, I've never seen THAT much skin on Kate, and for that, I'm sincerely grateful.[/quote] The rules change constantly though. This is someone whose every move has been scrutinized by the press for the last 4+ years. She looks great most of the time. It's fine you don't like the bust on this one dress. It's fine if you think that one pair of pants was ill-fitting. I disagree but whatever. The point is, if you can't admit that MM is a fashionable woman who knows how to dress, you are being disingenuous and looking for things to dislike about her. She is a beautiful woman who looks great in clothes and despite being in the public eye and having a veritable army of reporters who have made it their mission in life to catch her looking bad on camera, she still mostly manages to look great. Do you have any freaking idea how hard that would be? I mean I could sit here and drag up all Kate's missteps from the handful of years before and after she married William -- there were a million of them and she had a lot more goodwill that Meghan gets. But I don't dislike Kate and I'm not petty AF so I won't. She looked good at the funeral and was appropriate and didn't do a single thing wrong the entire week. It's honestly sad that some of you can't just admit that.[/quote] I mean look, Meghan is a beautiful woman, I give you that. I think she often dresses inappropriately, and she, like so many of us, misjudges her size and forgoes foundation garments. It's not a capital sin. Here is the thing: there are different standards at play for people who CLAIM to be good dressers and people who DON'T. People are forgiving of Kate because she, quite frankly, is NOT fashion forward and does not outwardly ASPIRE to be that way. Meghan, on the other hand, has ambitions to be tasteful and stylish. Therefore, she's scrutinized more and judged more harshly. Like, no one judges the way Eugenie or Beatrice dress because they do not pretend to be stylish. [/quote] Oh good lord. First of all, Kate 100% aspires to be fashionable in a "I'm gonna be queen one day" way. She is actively trying to look good and has always sought to use her appearance to boost her public persona AND her clout within the royal family. Don't be naive. She is great at it now but it took her a while to find her stride. Do you not recall the great furor over how much the Queen hated Kate's espadrilles? She's a fashion plate but she's been in the same job for a decade and she's hit her stride. Eugenie and Beatrice want nothing more than to be considered cool and stylish. It is honestly part of their charm. The love clothes and dressing up and nothing brings them more pleasure than a royal wedding where they can wear something insane on their bodies and their heads and get their picture in the papers. Yes, the want to be stylish and if you don't think they admire Meghan's ability to dress than you are kidding yourself. Meghan is beautiful and knows how to dress.[/quote] Nope I disagree with you on Kate. She dresses, most of the time, in a way that 95% of the population would not want to imitate - too conservative, too careful. She dresses well for her job, yes, but no one else has that job. Believe me, no woman her age wants to wear these clothes. She's not a fashion plate at all. Eugenie and Beatrice have never had anything but a quirky English look. Neither has ever been known for beauty or style, and no one expects it from them. Meghan is beautiful, yes. In my opinion, her dressing choices are often wrong for her and for the occasion. Recollections vary.[/quote] Ok.

I think most of your other examples are really good choices of times she looked phenomenal. But that green get up was horrible to me. [/quote] Yes what a hag, what does Harry see in her :roll: [img]https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/the-duke-and-duchess-of-sussex-arrive-at-the-commonwealth-news-photo-1583766167.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.605xh;0,0.0164xh&resize=640:*[/img] It's hard to take you seriously when you call a look like this "horrible". [/quote] I’m the PP you are replying to and yes she’s gorgeous. She always is. I have never called a woman a hag in my entire life and I wouldn’t. But we are talking about clothes, right? I hate that outfit, yes I think it’s horrible. I actually thought most people agreed on that one. You can like it if you want![/quote] Seriously, this. Meghan is obviously a beautiful woman but that dress is absolutely horrible. She looks like kermit. [/quote] If anyone else wore that same outfit, the headlines would scream that she's paying tribute to the Queen!
