Anonymous wrote:Big mistake by Kate. She should've gone 'Audrey Hepburn' simple yet glamorous (trendy fitted sparkly dress, with an UPDO and a proper chic princess Tiara, Veil and bouquet!! And not the cross between Maid Marion and frumpy Queen Victoria she ended up doing. White lace and Ivory silk together? a bit of a no-go IMO (unless you're in the middle of World War II and have run out of material..).
Understated? More like Underwhelmed...

Why the sideways hats? Why? Why?! Was it her (lack of) facial expression that makes her more and more unattractive? The pig nose? Is she Pig Spice? What about the hair? Its either butch-chopped or slicked back like a grease marm? There is no in between? Truly wretched.
Posh Spice

I've always felt bad for her because she was so young and in over her head, but I've never found Diana to be particularly admirable. I assume the near worship of her is because she was relatable.
No, it wasn't that she was relatable. It was her charisma and sense of style for the time which cannot be explained to someone from a later generation. It was her grace and the fact that she tried to do so much good in the world when it really wasn't required of her. There was something special about her. She genuinely cared. You had to be there. And be old enough to get it.
Umm Diana was a princess, pretty sure they are basically required to do charity work. What else was she going to do, become a day trader? And how on earth do you know that Diana genuinely cared? I find the Diana worship just so bizarre - she was born rich, became famous because she had the right breeding and looks for Charles to marry her, and died young in a stupid and pointless way. Yes, she did charity, just like every rich socialite does charity. She may have been a nice person, I didn't know her, but I meet people every day who I find to be more impressive.
