  1. I almost didn’t recognize Letizia’s former face

  2. imo Catherine’s Gold dress was a really peak moment for royal glamour in the modern age. It feels futuristic and yet nostalgic. IDK why but it’s a very “monarch” dress, symbolically, as an art piece. To me, it says something. The cross that forms in the gold evokes a hint of spirituality. The hair doesn’t look as great in retrospect as I first thought, but the dress is still fantastic years later. I could imagine her in a cecil beaton portrait wearing this and an epic tiara. Or in a natural forested setting, like when the late QEII had that becloaked-on-the-hills-of-scotland portrait done. Anyways the others are nice too but the gold dress one catches my imagination 🙂

    edit: the hair makes sense with the back of the dress

  3. The black on Diana and the silver on Madeleine are gorgeous.

  4. Also, where’s that pic of Fred and Mary dancing from? They look like they’re having so much fun!

  5. I love the gold dress, I really wish we got more glamorous moments (and tiara events) from the British royals.

  7. I love Charlene in 2, and Victoria’s pregnancy look in nr 12. She’s got a great green one in nr 7 too. And Maxima in nr 3, and all of Mary’s looks, but I’m partial to the silvery blue in nr 10.

  10. The red one on Kate with the flowy sleeves is a miss for me because it looks exactly like my old show choir dress.

  11. First time seeing that Charlene look, she looks like a disco queen 🪩. I love it!

    Kate’s dress in 1 is so gorgeous, my only quibble with the overall look is I wish she had worn her hair down. And Meghan looks fantastic in 9, she really nailed looking glamorous while pregnant in that dress and sleek bun.

  12. I’ll properly look later but wanted to take the time to thank OP for these posts!!!! It’s been so fun and I’m loving it

  13. Generally, I don’t hate on Kate’s style.

    But that pink dress never fails to remind me of internal pictures from a colonoscopy.

  14. Whoever is putting these together… I cannot choose! You keep finding such spectacular examples.
