No. I do not. And obviously she cared little for reusable fashion on this whole trip. Everything I read about her clothes there was labelled new... new... new.
I agree. Straight dresses do not flatter a very lean, long torso body.
when I look at the product shot of the dress on the Instagram post, it does remind me the usual style of Silvia.
As soon as I saw it I thought of Princess Anne when she started wearing tiaras at 17. She wore her hair up for tiara events after she married.
I so agree with you. I know I mostly like Tiaras wore with updos but this looked exquisite with her "unfussy" hair style pulled back to concentrate on her outfit. To be truthful, I get so tired of some women always wearing the same hair style. I like change and new looks at times, even on myself. When past your 80s, it is time enough to stick to 'tried-and-true' easy hair but while younger, a stark change is brilliant, as long as clean, shiny and looking like they made an effort. So Princess of Wales look, while at first a bit surprising, really marvelous. JMO
Renting a gown for a gala occasion in another country is really false signalling to me. Wrong place, wrong time and, IMO not worth the money for rent. She has other beautiful green gowns she could have recycled which would have been far more effective.
