It's awesome that Princess Ann can rock decades old outfits and still be one of the most stylish ladies at the event.
Princess Anne rocks. Full stop.😊
She is physically fit and has not gained weight since her younger year. Her older cloths look as good as the new ones.
Princess Anne has such poise and her outfit is classic. So double win
Style and class beat trendy and crass. Every time!
Fun fact: as per My Fair Lady, Thursday at Royal Ascot is LADIES DAY and traditionally Black and White
Thank you! That explains why so many black & white, I was wondering about that.
I was hoping someone would note that... the Cecil Beaton ensemble, with the little splashes of crimson in the hat, and parasol... absolute perfection!🥰
You are getting your races and race courses muddled. The black and white theme is for Derby day at Epsom. This is Ascot (Royal Ascot).
We attended a production of My Fair Lady at our city's Theatre Royal performed by the repertory cast of the famous London drama organization in late 1963, and the costumes were amazing.
They did a set piece for the race course scene and song, and all the ladies wore various white Edwardian gowns with black accessories. It was breathtaking.
No tatty opera gloves, but many a plumed hat and frilly parasols.
I loved it, and the audience actually gasped when we saw the stage filled with a gorgeous tableau.
I bet the cast enjoyed dressing up too. Such fun. 😊
@@Beruthiel45Beaton's theme for the Royal Ascot scene was inspired by the 1910 Royal Ascot, when black was worn because the country was in mourning after the death of King Edward VII.
Princess Anne is still wearing outfits that she first wore in the 1970s! Her figure has not changed an inch. Because she has always chosen classic looks and good tailoring, her outfits are timeless.
And economical! It may take her a lifetime but she’ll amortize every single garment she owns. Wish I had the space to save every single outfit I had that I loved.
I suspect that her figure has changed, but custom-made clothing has large seam allowances so the garments can be let out a bit.
@@wiffley If you compare photos, she is actually thinner now than she was in the 1970s.
My favorite was Princess Beatrice in the lace floral. Her style has improved leaps, and bounds since she married Edo. She's absolutely radiant, and I love that for her.💜
Yes! This dress is incredible.
It's because she lost a lot of weight.
I loved that dress too, I don’t mind the high collar, especially not when the dress looks like that.
Who designed it? It looks couture
@@SusanSaysSomething Beulah London, not couture, though I think it may have been made for her.
They have some lovely dresses, pricey but not crushingly so.
It was touching to see the King & Queen become so emotional when his horse won. Also, it was an especially precious moment because the horse had been bred from Queen Elizabeth's horse racing stables, so that probably brought a tear to the eye as well. I am sure the late Queen would have been equally delighted.
It was nice of you to feature Princess Margaret's daughter Lady Sarah Chatto. She keeps a low profile but rarely gets it wrong and her Jasper Conran wedding dress was one of my favourite Royal wedding gowns.
Her entire wedding party! 💒
low-key obsessed with Lady Sarah C.😊
Agreed. Lady Sarah is like her aunt, HRH Princess Anne, who never puts a foot wrong.
Her hats are always right. She understands what suits her, adapts for the occasion, and always looks good
I always liked Lady Sarah , very unpretentious and she has a really kind face , Princess Margaret would be proud of her .
I love seeing KC & QC looking so happy and relaxed especially after the difficult last year.
Their smiles and actions are genuine unlike the Harkles who are acting and pretending all the time,you can't fake real joy or real love .
Zara’s best accessories are always her smile and her husband gazing at her adoringly. ❤ Sophie was perfect in pink. Princess Anne looked very elegant in that green! When Catherine wears red, it’s always amazing. She can pull off dramatic colors. And I was so touched that the late Queen’s horse won. Thanks for a fun fashion show!
Who is she from across the pond once Camilla became cohort and Harry left I’m sticking to our country bringing forth representatives that care for their constituents… not kill as Jan 6
The entire RF & crowd cheered extra loud for HLMTQ when her horse won
Bea’s taste in hats has definitely improved!
Yes, she’s come a long way since the toilet lid monstrosity she wore to William and Catherine’s wedding.
It only had one way to go after that monstrosity at Prince William and Princess Catherine’s wedding. Also. Kudos to Mike Tyndall. It’s hard to dress such an athletic build without making him look stocky.
Everything with her has improved since she married Edo. She looks great now.
You needn't keep apologizing for describing areas one might want to hide. You are a stylist and simply being honest and professional.
I love seeing Zara and Mike Tyndall, the loving looks they give each other, after years of marriage and kids... its like Catherine and William's sweet looks at each other... its lovely to see people careing and loving each other ❤❤❤
I LOVED Beatrice’s lacy floral dress! So romantic and gorgeous
The hat at 18:00 looks like an upcycle for bath scrubs.
Nice to see Charles looking genuinely happy. Almost like a little kid. He looked so painfully sad after his mom died. Still deep painful loss no matter how old she was.
I must admit - I thought it was wool dusters on sticks
Sophie's pink dress was fantastic! So beautiful on her. The red dress on Catherine was absolute perfection, though!
complete agreement: the dress makes her shining
I love hats. I wish we ladies in America could wear more hats without looking out of place.
I do too.
I liked all of Zara’s looks except that one floral dress. The whole outfit reminded me of something Hyancinth Bucket would wear and not the best fit. And again, no to black opera gloves and white dresses.
I knew that dress reminded me of something. Yes definitely a Mrs Bucket dress 😂
Agree. Pronounced "Bouquet" of course! 🤣
I love soft pink 😍 Sofie's dress looked so flowy and airy. I dig the way the English ladies play their hat game too! I'd love to have a hat custom made omg
The Queen is a fabulous hat girl! She likes them big and decorated and she can pull it off
Yes - I love her fabulous big hats too - she can really wear them with panache, like her great grandmother Mrs Alice Keppel, who also wore splendid large hats with great style. I love that King Charles has made it a mission to track down jewellery that Edward VII gave to Mrs Keppel to give to his wife Camilla, including the Keppel Tiara. This is crafted from a mix of platinum and gold, an array of diamonds and synthetic rubies. At the time of its creation, synthetic gems were still a fairly new innovation and were highly sought after. It can also be worn as a necklace. Love older designs that could be worn in different ways, very versatile.
@@kittyb9383 Well, there is the possibility that Queen Camilla is also descended from Edward VII, so they’d really be keeping that jewelry in the family!
I adore that floral lace dress Beatrice wore. Like seriously LOVE it. Totally agree about Zara’s floral dress - it has sofa or living room chair upholstery or curtains. And Zara is usually such a fashion icon. I typically love what she wears and she knows her body shape well and dresses perfectly for her body type.
@olderwiser64 Agree, Zara’s green dress looked like old faded curtains!
The white outfit Sophie wore made her look like a nurse in the 1940s.
Meghan Markle said “I don’t always dress up,but when I do,it’s in an expensive designer gown that I make look like an old tatty sack!”
Hahaha!
Really. Derek?
Agreed. Why Ms. Percy wore those opera gloves not only with that dress but to a daytime event is beyond me.
I don’t even know who that person is. 🤷🏻♀️
@@spiritmatter1553 If you put the name into an internet search you can read about her. If you can’t remember her name you can scroll to the part of the video where it shows her and listen again.
I wonder if she was trying to add a type of edgy Goth look to a more traditional outfit? Still a beautiful girl, however ❤
@@lesliehatch-herman9325 One can add an edgy look without such a faux pas as opera length gloves during the day. That are also mesh. Lol. I don’t recall anyone saying the wearer was unattractive, just that the outfit was.
@@spiritmatter1553She is a former model and a relative of the Duke of Northumberland
I don’t know who Rosie is, but she hit it out of the park. Am TOTALLY obsessed with her shoes- first block heels I’ve seen in a while that are smoking! And overall, just a gorgeous, well put together look. And Catherine’s red ensemble made me gasp- perfection! And I just said Zara’s dress looks like a couch and then you said it😂😂🤜
That was a lovely look back on Ascot. I love the way you frame your comments. Never mocking people, but talking through why an outfit is a miss and how they could have done it better. It's a great way to learn about styling. Also providing information on why an outfit works.
It must have been an emotional time for King Charles when his horse Desert Hero won. Desert Hero was bred by the late Queen.
Camilla & Dior:
I myself really hope that Camilla was like "Didn´t we prepare this white Dior dress for the state visit to France, which I didn´t get to wear? I think I will wear it today."
I too think it was probably prepared for the cancelled state visit to France to honour French fashion. I am absolutely convinced it was 'conveniently' re-purposed for Ascot 😂
Zara's floral print dress reminded me of Blanche Devereaux's bedroom in Golden Girls. BTW, I loved that room, just not as a dress.
YES!!!!!
i totally agree - the GIANT bow on hannah cross’ dress makes it look almost cartoonish. just…why?
Zara is gorgeous, but I agree with you on the floral dress. I loved the navy and green hat.
Loved the lace and floral dress that Beatrice wore. It is a perfect lawn/garden dress.
And the Princess of Wales showed how red should be worn...
Some outfits remind me of playing dress up with my mother's clothes!
I loved Catherine's red dress/hat and Zara's turquoise fascinator and updo. Also, Beatrice's floral lace outfit very nice
Love the Barbie pink Beebs!!💝
Thank you!! 💛
I loved Zara's elaborate green hat!
@6:40 Oh it was total shade - the Queen’s Dior outfit was tailored for their 1st State visit to France but it was cancelled due to the French protesting Macron… again. Remember they went to Germany instead.
The Q’s dresser always know what they’re doing, every outfit (and back up) planned well in advanced. Every outfit is dated n noted before going back to storage. They also keep up on what is happening daily in the fashion industry. Of course they knew about Harry’s wife’s Dior gossip.
If the Queen knew or not, the dressers timed it perfectly ..muwah 😘
I really like the floral dress on Princess Beatrice. Love her in flowy, romantic looks. Her and Edo made a beautiful couple! Love Zara she always looks great and her and Mike are so fun! And Princess Catherine in the red, what a knockout! ❤️
Dear Beebs
Another informative episode and I really appreciate your gentle nods to the Royals humanity x
💛
I never thought I'd see the 80s prom and bridesmaid dresses actually be considered stylish again. Seeing all these pink puffy sleeves, dropped waists, and pastel floral prints at a high society event in 2023 is a little surreal. 😂
Some of us are tired of looking at so many celebrities looking half naked. Glad RF ladies look so dignified!
I liked Beatrice’s floral print dress - the one she wore with the pink hat/headband. That sort of dress is not something I’d usually go for, but it just fitted her so beautifully, the length was perfect, and the simplicity of the pink hat stopped the outfit from being too fussy. Catherine’s red dress was to die for, she can really carry off an all-over bright colour (are you listening, Meghan?).
Catherine elegant as a was different of Markle who wants to, but will never surpass the class of Catherine.
I honestly thought the "candy floss" hat was a bunch of shower scrubbers.
I adore this video. Your selection of a great many ladies was absolutely fabulous as my figure is more like Sophie's than Meghan's. I agree with most of your takes. I love that the oldier ladies such as the Queen or Princess Anne still look very stylish without trying too hard.
Hi Beebs I usually agree with you but I think the high waist line on Sophie gives her a slimmer look. I love it
I agree with you, though I don't like the elastic. Gathers under the bust.
Agreed about Zara's floral dress. What struck me most about it is the fabric looking so much like it's right out of the 1980s. I sewed a lot then, and there were two trends: the super saturated colours like fuschias and royal blues and the like, and then washed out colours like in that dress; the washed out colours often were florals like this too.
Zara's green hat reminded me of 1980s colours too, but in a much happier way. I loved it. I would only have liked some of that green in her other accessories.
I often like Camilla's outfits, but on this occasion I was underwhelmed.
I had loved Meghan's Ascot hat, and I very much liked the dress she wore on that occasion too, except that it emphasized her blocky figure. Beautiful dress, just not flattering to her.
I disagree about Beatrice's floral dress. I like it very much. I agree with the many, many comments about her much improved fashion sense.
I kinda like Princess Beatrices floral dress. I think she has come a long way with the way she dresses herself.
I wonder how we'd feel abt certain dresses, like Zara and Beatrice's, if we saw them in person.
Beatrice’s lace and floral dress was probably divine in person. Some outfits just don’t photograph well.
I know this is about the clothes but l loved The Queen’s topaz and pearl necklace.
Lovely video, thank you so much.
I think that Queen Camilla may have had her Dior outfit in preparation for the cancelled state visit to France. I am pretty certain that it was a completely deliberate and subtle dig at Megan Markle.
My favourite looks were Catherine, Princess Anne's emerald green and Princess Beatrice's lace dress.
Love your fashion talk makes us all rethink some of our wardrobe. I thought everyone looked lovely. Keep these coming I really enjoy the show.❤❤
I love Camilla’s mint hat, it’s very exuberant and looks like a sombrero/chip & dip tray. The black and white one is about as chic as I’ve seem from her.
I love that purple hat of Sophie’s, but her best accessory that day was her dad. They looked so cute together. And I also love that Edward wears the same tie over and over, year after year.
Zara’s white and blue outfits were fab, I love the whimsy of the green hat.
That one hat looks like she attached bath puffs to a wire frame and plucked it on her head.
That was wonderful, thank you.
amazing video as always Beebs! I thought Zara's white Scanlan Theodore dress was absolute perfection ,(maybe i'm biased as an australian and it being an aussie brand) and Catherine looked stunning in Alexander McQueen. Sorry to be a pain, but Sophie Winkleman's is addressed as Lady Frederick Windsor , not Lady Sophie Winkleman, as the wife of a lord is entitled to the feminine form of her husband's style xxx
Absolutely loooved this, thank you so much. Totally agree Catherine looked so amazing in red and I also adored Sophie in pink and Bea's lacy dress. Lots of beautiful dresses on display! ❤❤❤❤
I loved Beatrice’s white dress. I thought she look beautiful
It’s at times like this I miss MM. Her attempts at looking fetching always left me in stitches!!
I know, I'm very old, but I've been wondering for a while...quite a while, why women pose, with their legs crossed, like they're trying to hold back the urge to relieve themselves. Like I've typed, I'm old, but the pose of a relaxed ballet 3rd position seems to make a better line for the clothes and the body that's wearing them. The other pose looks awkward to me.
I love a white dress. Cream doesn’t suit me as well, but it’s far more commonly offered in dresses that aren’t summer-only.
Yes! Why is it that white is always more flattering than cream? Would love Beeb's thoughts on that topic...
Ascot is the classiest of all summer events. Men’s Day Suits, are hot, btw. Omg! There’s nothing more hilarious than a flock of Furry Tribbles attacking a Laura Ashley dress. Queen C loves those jacket dresses, and the fabric is really heavy, so there’s no twirling up. And that black and white hat was super Fab. I liked that Lacey Bea dress, it’s the yellow toned roses, that throws off the balance. Oh no! One more MM Givenchy dress that was a total fail. I dislike handkerchief hemlines. And I blocked that completely out of my memory.
Agree about Zara's lace dress!! Sooooo lovely.
Beatrice looks fabulous now.
Hi Beebs; Not only do I enjoy your videos, I find myself studying the looks and your comments. Thank you.
Zara's lace dress and hat were my favorite, I liked the two dresses in the heavy woven linen look, and the pumps with the chunky heel.
What many people fail to understand when going to Ascot is that as it is a daytime event, and day dresses/outfits must be worn. No cocktail dresses, too high slits, no showing decolletage. Also the fabric should be a day time fabric and not an evening dress fabric.
People like to break the rules, but mostly they end up looking as if they want to be noticed for 'whatever' reason.
You should also look at the grooms who are parading the horses, there is a difference in the dress code of European grooms and US grooms.
Hi Beebs, I have to say Fergies daughters are doing pretty good relative to their upbringing. Also Beebs have you seen those funny Sophie and Mike switching hats series!
Zara and Mike always look so happy with each other. I just love them.
Zara’s white dress was made by Australian designer Scanlan Theodore (with apologies for any misspelling).
Ladies Day at Ascot is traditionally black & white.
Beebs, lately I have been thinking ‘why do I disagree with you so much?’
Don’t misunderstand, I have every respect for your opinion and your channel, I look forward to your videos.
Though, as I say, lately I have been disagreeing more.
I’ve realised what it is; British/European fashion. Those high, empire waists are hanging, ready to be worn, to weddings all over the country tomorrow. They are everywhere at the moment. Worn by the short, tall, slimmer, larger and every body shape.
I think that maybe, the more you see them, the more your eye is used to them and accepts them.
In person, they can be very flattering.
Currently I wonder that British/European fashion is very different from that of the US at the moment.
I would be interested to know what you think? 😊
Agree, the empire line is quite flattering as it nips in at the smallest area of the torso for most people. I think she prefers Sophie in the crisp, more structured looks, which really speaks more to the Kibbe body types than fashion in general.
Perhaps, I do like empire waist dresses and they can be very flattering in general. But taste does always impact whether or not we truly like something or not, and thats a good thing & to be expected! I do like Sophie's empire waist dresses much of the time, I just find her figure better complimented in different designs, not to say she doesn't look beautiful or that the dresses aren't gorgeous 💛💛💛
@@BeebsKelley absolutely. Taste is subjective, and important.
It is expected that, where possible, the RFamily will attend Ascot. Which means new clothes every day.
Some members of the RFamily have less money than others. Besides, can you imagine being ‘on’ in that way every day? It must be difficult! In that respect, I don’t envy them!
I agree, in fact, I prefer Sophie in the empire line dress compared with the white which I thought rather frumpy and unflattering. Beebs is, IMO, a much better commentator than many despite the style and taste differences between US and European fashion as she has reasons for liking/disliking which make sense.
Lilly Pulitzer and Draper James does a similar dress as Zara Tindell wore.😊
I agree about Megs starting all the rumors in hopes that Dior or whoever will agree by default?? It’s a truly stupid strategy and only worked on Harry.😂😂😂
Charles and William both looked incredibly dapper, as did Mike tindle. All the royal men looked good... I wonder if Harry misses any of this even a little bit.
Whenever I see all the beautiful ladies and their dresses, and see the fun it looks like they are having being there, I am reminded of the absolute stupidity in MM giving this up, because she would have always been the third “most important” adult woman at the event (Queen Camilla, Princess Catherine, then MM) but that wasn’t good enough for her. Now she is trying to be a US Senator!?!? She has given up class and regal tradition for a shot at Congress. Ridiculous.
Yes, if only she had been patient, worked at fitting in, instead of trying to be top dog from day one. Meghan could have been a very positive influence if she wasn’t obsessed with being always first and always right.
She's blown the Senate run, too. Governor Newsome has blocked her.
I love Zara's navy blue outfit, but i hated the fact that she paired it with a silver bag and silver shoes. This bugged me just as much as Kate's garish black chandelier earrings with that gorgeous red outfit.
Agree...
lol...i just saw an ad for dior with...natalie portman...if a design house has an actual queen and an a list hollywood celeb as their spokespeople/clients...why would they settle for harry's wife?
I enjoyed this episode very much. 🎩
Great job, Beebs! 👗
The one with the opera gloves would have been cute without the gloves, the choker and with a different bag. It was way too much together.
I loved Princess Beatrice's dress!
This red dress gave me the same WOW as the gold dress...and not that this is important, but the photograph of her wearing the black mask in the car was stunningly iconic ❤❤❤
Great insight on Meghan Markle. I agree with you 💯
Black and White is the dress code for Ladies Day at Ascot, as in the Audrey scene in My Fair Lady
the hat of the pink lady looks like cotton candy - my thought :-)
Great looks, so lovely to see them.
The white dress on Zara Philips was the best for me, she looked wow. You suit that beautful dark pink colour, looks lovely.
Thank you!!
I loved the cream and lavender look on Sophie
Wished we wore hats again
I notice how the older Royals are trying to bring back white gloves, good luck with that one! My Mom’s generation wore these for going downtown in the 50s and 60s. I had, as a 4-year old, a little pair to match. I also had a tiny handbag with a chain, which I loved.
🤩💛
Anne first wore the turquoise dress in 1978. She is amazing. Love the rewears.
Yaaaaas, Beebs. Let’s do this! So excited to watch!❤
Sabrina’s was my favorite! So sophisticated and modern!
Im obsessed with the green hat that Zara is wearing with the blue dress. SO amazing. 😍
Love waking up in Aus & seeing another fashion & flair video from Beebs. I’ve learned so much listening to your assessment each week. ❤ from Brisbane. 👍
💛💛💛
same! from nashville :)
Absolutely - Beeb's videos are such a joy - so much fun and I've learned a lot too! So happy Beeb's discusses fashion for more mature ladies too!❤from Melbourne!
Lovely Beebs, I enjoyed that so much! xx
You have a really good eye and I enjoy your comments on the different looks
I think you’ve got it right on with Queen Camilla. She wears fairly safe clothes but classy. Thing is when you get older the days of figure hugging? You’re not there by a long shot but take it from someone who has
If you had an hour glass figure when you were younger? As you get older….the sand shifts. Wether you want it to or not 🤷♀️😉
Never thought it would happen to me but it did and damn! It was humbling.
Beebs dahling! So pretty in pink!❤🎉
💛💛💛thankyou!
that flora on Zara looked like 80's curtains or comforter material....the volume of the sleeves at her waist made her look bigger in the waist, which she has a great waist.
Hiding tummy:
It happens almost every time I am on my period, that I choose clothes which are wider, just because I feel swollen. I really do not know another way to feel comfortable on such days unless I can stay at home wearing my sweatpants.
I loved this video!!! Love these videos with a large event and cover everyone’s entire outfit.
Lady Sophie Winkelman’s entire ensemble is heartbreakingly sweet. ADORE! I may have to draft a pattern for this one, including the pillbox hat. I just love it. The only thing I would change… using a 1/2” belt without visible notches, just a discreet hook and eye on the inside strap.
Lovely spending time with you reviewing the royal ladies at Ascot!
It was also the shark bite hem on Megan's dress was odd. The fabric seemed to weigh the hem down and didn't have the flow that a shark bite should have.
Beatrice and Eugenie have the most inconsistent, ill-informed clothing sense. Nothing about whether modern or not, whatever, but so often the clothes are just not for their bodies. But I am old fashioned because the dresses I most love on the queen and on Catherine are those gorgeous print 'shirtwaist' dresses.
I loved Princess Beatrice dress the floral one she wore at the same time Princess Catherine wore the red dress. It was the nicest of her two dresses. It is good that Princess Beatrice has worn better looking hats compared to ones that she wore prior to her marriage.
I'm always surprised by Beatrice and how she has transformed into blooming fashionista. A real 180. Because I'm a pear I like MM's broad shoulders but I truly agree she should not wear a belt or bow at her waist which I do think is thick.
