I do not like Letizia tonight - hard and unnatural. Looks like pop-star with a tiara, rather than the Crown Princess.
Gala-dress looks large and heavy for her figure. Hair will not fit under clothing. Usually she looks nice, but not today Sorry

Carla looks like a really princess - the style and chic. Nothing extra. Simple and elegant. She was born with these qualities

I am sorry to say but to me Mrs. Sarkozy looks a little bit "fake".
I don´t know her at all but it seems as if she is trying to be lady like and hiding her true nature - though I admit, I saw her ther first time as first lady of France here. I do not believe that she is this, how do you say in english, aristocratic or noble. To me it looks like she has a very livid character which she tries to hide - but as I said thats just my opinion from the pictures.
The ladies are all very beautiful - I just wonder if Mrs. Sarkozy still is natural? I admit thouhg that she has a very elegant posture.

I think Carla's simplicity at the dinner was good, she did not want, nor tried to outshine the royals. She looks different than the Royals but very dignified.

And Letizia is wearing the safety pin yet one more time, honestly.

I like Carla, her simplicity is her best weapon and she knows it; she's sweet and looks modest even though she knows she's the center of the atention, I think she's a little bit overwhelmed with all the atention anf focus centered on her, wherever they went everybody was "Carla, Carla, Carla".

The Queen looks good in red, her dress and jewelry were stunning but of course she's the Queen, a lady of other generation and always on her very own style, and for Letizia I didn't like it, sorry, she's looking better lately but that dress is ugly IMO and has something weird on her behind, she tried to hard and the result was really really busy between the train, the tiara with that loose hair, orders, blasons, glitters, jewelry, makeup, you name it and of course those ugly shoes.

I agree with everything except that Carla might be a little bit overwhelmed, she is a tough lady, aristocratic and used to being the focus of attention. The demure face is a sign that she is in complete control of the situation and this is the face she finds appropriate for the occasion.

I love the Queen in red. Carla was very chic.
I like Letizia's dress, but not the pin and the shoes.

Frankly, I think all 3 women looked fabulous last night. As always, Queen Sofia looked the most "natural" because it's a role she was groomed for since childhood. Letizia has learned her role; and, as for Carla -- she's an actress playing a real part. How could she possibly go wrong?

I think all the ladies looked great. I like Carla's simplicity. What's the name of Queen Sofia's tiara? I haven't seen this before.
