New pics! I think Meghan looks great, love the color on her. She really looks like shes popped now, compared to the pics on page 1 of this thread.
I couldn’t figure out why her face looked so different from the other photos and then finally realized her eyebrows aren’t as filled in as they typically are.
Regardless, she looks freaking amazing in this photo. I’m jealous of all the glowing happening.
Kate looks lovely, but I feel like so many of her gowns look so similar.
Yeah. I don’t think she cares about fashion. She very much falls in the oh this looks good and I like it get me 3 in different colors fashion category.
Her dress above from BAFTAs is also a repeat of the same style (she wore what appears to be a similar dress to Charles’ bday just in pink)

I mean, it works on her. She could honestly wear a paper bag and make it look fantastic, but I know she is fairly limited in styles that are considered appropriate for her. The pink is lovely.

This is what people would say about me if I were a princess. I just like what i like and 9 times out of 10 it's the same basic cut. Of course I'm a much bigger fan of color than Kate. So at least I'd have that going for me.
So people could focus for criticizing me for like...touching my hair too much or accidentally saying Fuck in public.

I agree with this. I think if she wasn’t a princess she would very much be a jeans and t shirt kind of girl. Meghan on the other hand seems to love fashion and it shows. She seems much more keen to try new looks and take some risks.
Last night I was bored and counted her formal wear she has worn since she got married. She has worn at least 40 formal gown (and likely more since not all occasions are photographed for the press). My favorite was the dark blue one she wore overseas, the worst, the gold Erdem she wore while pregnant.
Considering she has rules she has to dress by, I can’t see how you can have that many styles without repeating. I hate shopping anyway, so I can see how she’d say....I’ll take this in 3 colors. I do the same thing myself when I like something. I even buy duplicates in the same color.

Right, some US celebs do the same thing really. How many bandage dresses had jlo worn? How many strapless sparkly column dresses has Jenn Aniston worn? You find a look. You rock it.
But maybe I'm defensive because I own 5 of the same dress in different colors and sleeve lengths.

I don’t find this to be a bad thing, just a fact. She wears a lot of the same things because she likes them and they work. Same for you. I just imagine that if I had the resources of a princess I would branch out a little more especially since I could hire someone to bring me racks and racks of clothes that I could try on in my living room while watching tv.

I doubt she buys formal wear off the rack though. Just about every formal dress she has worn has been modified in some way.

I'm guessing that's how she ended up with the terrible Erdem outfit.

I disagree with Meghan being more of a fashion person. When she had her blog, she was very much a beachy/ripped jeans kind of woman. I don’t think Meghan is more into fashion, I think she has a better work ethic and understanding of PR. She treats being a princess like a job and understands the value of appearances. I think if she was still living and working in Toronto, she would be in blue jeans all the time. But they would be very fashionable and expensive jeans.

Idk. I read she once held a “Sayonara Zara” party to celebrate being able to afford buying designer clothes. I think she just truly cares about the clothes more. Where Kate just doesn’t seem to care.

I believe Meghan’s background as an actress has been an asset to her in this respect. I think she is more comfortable taking risks and branching out, plus her role in the family allows her more leeway than Kate’s. I said I think Kate nails the formal wear the majority of the time but I think Meghan effortlessly pulls off the business casual/professional attire for her appearances.
I do think both women need better people around them to handle the details and make their looks more polished. All of that said, it has to be exhausting knowing that every outfit you wear is going to be picked over and I’m sure they both have gotten to a point where they just don’t care what the public thinks.
To be fair, in that slide show 13/31 were Packham (who I love by the way and think suit her beautifully) and 8/31 were McQueen - I don't think it necessarily disproves PP's point that she mostly sticks with who she knows and what's safe (which I think is 100% fine and is exactly what I would do)
