Camilla looked super at tonights gala performance. The dress/coat looked to be a slate blue or grey and I just love the 'rocks' she is wearing.:)

Camilla looks nice. The outfit is alright. The jacket is a nice blue velvet. I hope the jacket comes off and we can see the dress under. It is blue, her favourite color this month. Im a bit bored of it but it is a nice color. She does have wonderfull jewelry on. But then again she always does. I love it. Is it hers from her family, charles or the BRF collection. She rode in the same car as the Princess Alexandra so I guess they are good friends. I dont know how to post getty images so who ever does feel free to post.

i think she always looks great...once again it's just the hair! i know she probably won't change it now but i wish she would update the style...maybe a wee bit shorter and not so big.

The Duchess has worn the same dress with Tiara when she was attending a Reception and Dinner on the last night she was in America last month.Yah, its right that the Duchess and Princess Alexandra and the late Sir Angus were really good friends, The Duchess did attended his Funeral and Memorial Service, and at the Jubilee Concert the Duchess sat next to Sir Angus as well.

The thing is that Camilla has very strong facial features and her hairstyle softens that somewhat. A shorter, more severe style would accentuate her strong features & heavyish chin,

Why Charles's face is very red? It is always nice to see them being ease with each other. Maybe that's why Camilla is glad to accompany Charles in his engagement. Navy is her color of this month. We shall we what's the color for next month. Camilla looks nicer and nicer. I am happy that she has found much fun in her royal life than I have thought.
By the way, what's the color of Camilla's eyes? Looks green but not emarld or a bright green?

Are there any pictures from that event? I can't remember seeing this dress before.

I must get my eyes tested, it looked to be a saxe/slate blue dress with a slightly deeper blue coat, to me. It certainly looks dark blue in the getty photos.
They both look so happy together, it's almost like having a new Prince Charles as well!:)

Do you have a picture from the American trip showing this outfit? I can't find one in the relevant thread.:)

camilla deserves an a for the job she is being doing. although her position is quite difficult she is being doing duties alone since a long time and seems quite into the job. i'm really happy for her. not only the british people are starting to like her, but the relationship with her in-laws seems to be getting better everyday...

Perhaps the blue dress she is wearing is the same one she wore to her first tiara event but with a lace overlay.

We are probably seeing the real Camilla. Prior to the wedding she was "just" a lover and had to blend into the back ground for Charles' sake. Now we are seeing the real Camilla her longtime royal friends and Charles have known her whole life.

However, the make-over she is getting is certainly very well orchestrated and carried out. Charles wasn't kidding when he said Camilla wasn't negotiable. His complete and very public adoration for her is making her so much more likeable - whether she deserves it or not is at this point irrelevent.

It's really kind of cute for him to refer to her as "his darling wife" all the time. I always thought he is more old fashioned and reserved about feelings.

Perhaps I'm too tired, Camilla has either slimmed down or the evening dress was very well designed. Either way, she looked great, especially in this picture.

I can never tell what Camillas true figure is. Change the lighting one bit and her figure changes. Every outfit changes her figure too. Its strange. Charles usually is reserved about his personal feelings. When asked if he was happy in the 60 minutes interview he avoided answering it.
