I really liked the green for something different! There are photos of the event online and other women were wearing relatively unusual shades of green, not just Kate. I thought it was very fun for a change and enjoyed seeing the various ladies’ choices.

I am not a Kate fan but I take a perverse joy in how bad she is at dressing herself. She’s up there with Ivanka for “really? That? Those pieces together? You’re gonna style it like… well, okay.” I love the dress but hate it on her because it fits poorly, but it’s so bad I LOVE IT. If that makes any sense.

I don't especially care for Kate, but no way does she reach the level of WTF that Ivanka did over the past several years. If nothing else, she has a much easier body to fit, but also, Kate hasn't gone in for wacky cutouts or inappropriate sheerness or nutty prints or just general kookiness.

Cut her hair! No way. I think it should be a tad longer, as it was not too long ago. Cutting hair as you age is totally old fashioned.

DP. I, too, think she should cut her hair. It has little to do with age, and more to do with her choice to style it in those sausage curls. I think straighter styles a bit below her shoulders really look good on her. I’m not a fan, but some of her fashion decisions aren’t doing her any favors.

I assumed that most of her choices were about adhering strictly to some very dated Royal Family dress code. It will be interesting to see how — or if — that changes going forward. I actually quite like some of her more casual and sporty looks.

Do you like the style of any of the royals? I think most of what Kate wears is pretty safe. She took a risk here, so I see why people have mixed opinions, but I am surprised to hear a strong opinion that her style is generally bad. She must have a million coat dresses, can’t say too much either way about those.

I liked that she mixed it up a bit! But more than the color, it was an unusually sexy dress for her. More power to her for having three kids and a body like that!

I hope they don't have daughters.

So, because we admire a woman who is dignified, articulate, compassionate - AND a fashion icon - we shouldn't have daughters? Meanwhile, let me guess - you idolize the Kim Kardashians of the world. Sorry, I'd be thrilled if my daughter was more Kate Middleton than Kim K - any day of the week.

This x1000.

You two are ridiculous. No one. Not one single pp said anything remotely suggesting wanting anything about KK. But please, continue your fantasy.

NP. No, someone made reference to KK being superior to Kate because at least she started a lucrative business

Why? Because they think Kate is stylish and aren’t making personal attacks? That somehow means terrible mom to daughters?

It is a fashion board and we are talking about her fashion. As a response to someone saying something of the sentiment of she always looks well dressed, posters chime in saying well she is boring, doesn’t do anything, hasn’t accomplished anything, etc. Why? Why t
Do you feel the need to denigrate her personally when all we are wanting to talk about is a dress?

I completely agree. She is divine.

This fangirling in a grown woman is just embarrassing.

This. What has that woman accomplished? She waited around a decade for a man and then had three kids. What did she do in that time? She's completely mute and bland. So disgustingly regressive.

She seems to be a great and very involved hands on mother, she puts a lot of time effort into her responsibilities. And let’s face it; constantly planning and preparing for various causes, events, trips, outing, and always looking perfect with every move can’t be easy. Staff or not. She has impeccable taste. I guarantee she is busier and has more responsibilities than you do.

It's the same reason that there was a green carpet at the event instead of a red carpet. I mean, too bad the greens clashed, but she wore it for a reason, friends.

Of course she did. We’re just saying she could have picked a better green dress.

np who also liked the green dress. Of course she could have chosen an emerald green, she chooses emerald green all the time. She does not get many opportunities to wear something more playful or youthful. I am very glad she wore this fun, surprising dress.

I agree.

+1 She looked wonderful!
