Charlene looked wonderful, Caroline, looked nice, but her gown was clown college, Stephanie, looked very nice, but her shoulders are stooped. Like the world is on them. All and all they looked beautiful.
 
Prince Albert looks like a fancy waiter. :ROFLMAO:
Caroline looks like she's wearing mismatched curtains and Stephanie looks like 5 miles of bad road. Charlene..*shrug* nothing new there, but the tiara looks splendid!
 
How strange Caroline showed up. I guess they have to take care of their business, which has been quite damaged these days with so many rumors. It´s always good to see her even in a not so nice but striking dress, so much that she overhadowed everyone, no matter how hard they try to be "stunning".

As for the "madly in love" couple, what a pity this is the image of Monaco.

Charlene looked so great today! And I love her new tiara! Caroline's dress looks a little to busy, Stephanie looks okay, better than other years!
 
Princess Charlene was so beautiful. I'm happy to see her with the Ocean tiara.
 
Disappointment over the lack of the Casiraghi Trio trumps any opinion I may have on the Older Generation.
 
Curious as to why they are not there. Is there an equestrian event somewhere which would account for their absence?

Interesting dress on Carolina, Stephanie looked very nice and of course Charlene truly looked lovely. The Ocean tiara/necklace is stunning.
 
Princess Caroline's gown is something I might have expected Princess Stephanie in her younger years to choose because of her rebel image.

Conversely, Princess Stephanie's romantic gown is what I thought her sister would have preferred for this event.

Is Princess Caroline going through some experimental stage? An event like this, I assumed, would have made her fashion and competitive juices flowing, like she did in past years. Her look at her brother's wedding ball had the same watered down quality. Where is that "I'm Grace Kelly's daughter and I'll eat you alive, thank you very much" attitude that she proudly sported all her life???

As for Stephanie, girl seems allergic to jewelry. And as much as the gown in itself is beautiful, the shapeless bodice doesn't do her any favors. She needs a tighter fit that would feature her figure and balance her strong shoulders.
 
Caroline´s dress is a piece of art only naturally beautiful, classy, elegant women can wear. She doesn´t need to "try hard" to look stunning.
 
Thanks for the link of Royal fashionistas - the pics there are lovely, Princess Charlene truly looked stunning (and the breathtaking necklace/tiara)! They made a lovely couple with Prince Albert (who really likes the white dinner jacket;)).
Princess Caroline´s gown was ridiculous, such an attire wouldn´t do any justice even to the most beautiful woman in the world.
Princess Stephanie looked good, better than she used to look in past years.
Elisabeth de Massy looked horribly thin, but elegant.
 
Have Mélanie de Lusignan and Elisabeth-Ann been forgotten?
 
Do you have an idea how much the guests had to pay ? Lucky it is for Charity.
The Glory of the Princes of Monaco is back.
A new husband for Caroline and Stephanie for next year would be fine!

Well that woman is wearing the wrong dress, it looks ugly as does she. She's not stunning but tired, old and almost leathery. Same goes for Stephanie, who at least wore a semi-elegant dress.


I like Charlene's gown, but she needs to stay out of the sun, it's ruining her complexion.
 
I will not say one more word, wonderfull Charlene.
I am surprised to see that the Baroness of Massy is so slim, is she ill?

It is strange to see all this women which are separat or divorced, Princess Caroline, Princess Stephanie, Baroness of Massy. Prince Albert is the one man of the family here at the Gala,

I love PC necklace.
Does anyone know if its new or if it belongs in the 'family vaults?' please?
 
The necklace is tthe tiara Ocean, the gift the prince offered to his wife, this tiara can become a necklace

I think that Caroline's gown is awful. Better for a costume ball, not the biggest ball in Monaco's social schedule. It looks like a design by the African designer Duro Olowu. She wore one of his designs to the RCB 2010. I can't find a runway picture of the dress that Caroline is wearing tonight, but this picture is from his 2011 collection and looks quite similar to tonight's 2011 RCB gown.

Sorry agogo ,but I don´t agree with you .... I like Princess Caroline´s dress ; it is really different and original.... I am bored of strapless mono-colour dresses .....:ROFLMAO:

In addition , as the president of AMADE , Princess Caroline is trying to promote new designers coming from undeveloped countries. Great for her :flowers .... IMO she is the only one of the family who can wear this type of designs , because she has innate style .... Charlene or Stephanie could never wear an outfit like this ....

Is it a must for Albert or the event to wear a white dinner jacket?

He generally wears a white jacket to the Red Cross Ball.

I'm sorry Charlotte might be able to pull it off but the design is to youthful for Caroline. What she wore for the wedding was also terrible on her and Steph looked good. Its as if the sisters have switched roles on who dresses better.

I miss the days when the sisters really dressed for a Ball. No Trio and Chris Levine and his wife are missing as well.
 
Great Photos. Charlene looks great!

Is Charlene really styed as a Princess in her known right though? I was told that only Princesses by blood have the priveledge of being styled as a Princess with their own name, thus in their own right. In Monaco at the moment to my knowledge there are three: Princess Caroline, Princess Alexandra, and Princess Stephanie.
