I quite hope she goes back to her whispy hair styling. This severe scrape is not flattering IMO. Great to see them though!
Is there a photo of Meghan standing showing off her outfit. I have only seen in carriage and then only extreme top section on balcony. I know she will wear again someday but I was just curious. TY
I'm glad I never had to appear in public a month after having any of my babies.

She may be concealing her post-pregnancy hairline for a reason.
How I hope she doesn’t read heavy criticism about herself today.

Are you referencing post pregnancy hair loss? If so, it's a little early, that usually happens around month 4.
I haven't really read any heavy criticism, just a lot of meh reaction to what she wore.
The hair loss can start as early as 1 month post partum. Every woman is different.

The hat is far too severe, the outfit is quite bland but I didn’t expect anything fancy. It’s lovely to see her.
The British Fashion Council disagrees with this definition of British fashion as they take young and upcoming designers to Paris each year. And have awarded Clare Waight Keller and British Designer of the Year for Womenswear last year. Fact of matter is, we live in a globalized world. And French and Italian fashion aren’t just renowned because of their Houses, but also what their designers have been able to do overseas.
If you were to ask the average British taxpayer I'm sure they would say Givenchy is throughly french.
I'm also pretty sure they'd have no idea who Clare waight Keller is.
Ask the same taxpayer about McQueen and they'd say it's British.
So people’s ignorance matters more than facts? That’s the argument we are going with now? I’m fine with that definition if that’s the case.
I feel like, for me, Meghan gets half a pass today. She didn’t have to attend but she chose to thereby making the decision to be in public less financial 5 weeks after the birth of her son. So you have to take into account both things.
Purely on her outfit, this is a fashion thread, it’s pretty basic and if it’s all new I’m slightly disappointed again because I don’t see why she couldn’t have had a maternity outfit adjusted for this occasion.
I simply don’t like the fact she keeps going to Givenchy for outfits at massive patriotic home events. And the frank, they’re not great outfits either. There’s literally no reason for it.
Very relevant point. I have always found it odd at how many clothes ladies like Catherine, Meghan, Sophie and the York girls seem to buy, when they could simply reuse some of their existing clothes a lot more.
The York sisters are not working royals so whatever money they spend on clothes, it’s their own hard earned money- they can spend 10k on an outfit no one cares.
Both Camilla and Sophie rewear their outfits time and time again, case in point the outfits they wore yesterday - both were repeats. Also, looking how much some of the things she wear cost, Sophie is probably the least spender of the bunch- second only to Anne most likely, but given her minor royal status that is a very smart strategy.
Catherine also tends to rewear some of her clothes, and she tends to mix up a lot of high street brands.
As mentioned, and as I said earlier: I can think of at least five outfits Meghan wore during her pregnancy that could have been reworked for this event and would have still looked elegant and fitting a new mum who is still carrying some of her baby weight.
A bit sombre for the occasion... but the hat is on point !
I agree with everything, except that list is in the maternity wear thread.Sophie may not be as 'flashy' as others, but if you look at the labels she wears, she spends a LOT more money then you seem to think. For all the criticism of Meghan, Sophie wears a large amount of foreign brands. And not just foreign but high end like Gucci and so on. She gets away with it without the criticism because she doesn't get much attention due to her role.
Meghan has worn a number of high street and lower budget brands along the way as well. She mixes and matches like the rest of them. Considering she has only been married for a year, and during that time she had an ever changing baby body, its not surprising she hasn't re-worn more then she has.
But if you go back a few pages, you will find lists of things she has re-worn which people conveniently over look. Just like conveniently over looking the lower budget items.
