Definitely a hit!
I love this dress on her.

 

[salma]

MM looks great, I love the dress.

 

[Sereta]

It's funny that they did a poll on this dress.....
Well it's a hit with me, I think it looks fab!

 

[rominet09]

It is not my favourite dress but it is very nice !

 

[Opal]

It gets a thumbs up from me. I love the blouse over the dress look.

 

[Dierna23]

I found the overlay of the Valentino gown quite delicate. Definitely a hit.

 

[4Pam]

Such a beautiful dress! And MM and Haakon are a beautiful couple.

Princess Mette-Marit seems to have come out of her shell. Her outfits lately have been just stunning.

The cut of the dress will definitely cause new pregnancy rumors. Not a very good choice, imo.

I agree with you, she has some belly.

Princess Mette-Marit's changing style and fashions

 

[4Pam]

I'm really enjoying MM fashions these days. I've always favored Mary's classic fashion sense but now that MM has stepped it up she's definitely in the running for first place. MM's fashion seem to be classic fused with trends.

I totally agree, 4Pam. I think MM's style is beautiful. She is very classic but at the same time is open for experiments. I remember that she was one of the first royals to wear the Philip Treacy feathers. I found it odd at first but the more she wore them the more I liked them. Her style has developed very much in recent time. She looked adorable during the Swedish wedding festivities. If only she would stop wearing too much black...Her colours are red, pink, blue, white.

So cruel, I think MM looks great in her LBD, I love a dress with sleeves, not enough dresses with sleeves these days ...As for the belly comments, cut her some slack, she has had THREE children and she is so slim, look at her flat butt...maybe her belly is where her (minimal) fat storage is held...not on her arms or thighs, just a tiny pot belly...I think it shows she's a real woman, a mother and healthy and gorgeous....I recall Princess Diana being the same, tall, lanky, no butt but a rounded belly and she only had two pregnancies!!! Lay off MM...she's doing a great job!

She is high and slouches a lot.
Thus any dress would make her look pregnant.

 

[Her_Majesty]

This is definitely,too. Well, the front view of the dress is actually really nice.

Anna, I don't mind Mette-Marit's belly. I would be the last one complaining about a woman having a belly. In fact she looks really great for having 3 children.
It was just an ironic comment, because recently (when MM wore tight dresses like that) it caused pregnancy rumors immediately and MM really wasn't amused about that.
Well, why I though the dress wasn't a good choice is, because the audiences at Skaugum always offer side view pictures of the CP couple. And if MM really doesn't like the pregnancy rumors, the dress simply wasn't a wise choice for this certain event. That's all I wanted to say.

What's cruel about it? The girls only stated the dress may cause a pregnancy rumors. Nobody said she looks bad.

If that was cruel, how about your above statement "look at her flat butt"... that's not nice, telling someone has a flat butt .

Also, a question: why the fact she has a little belly makes her "a real woman, a mother and healthy and gorgeous"? Does that mean a woman with a flat belly wouldn't be "a real woman, a mother and healthy and gorgeous"? Just courious...

And as for your last statement, who said she's not doing a great job? The only thing is, we are here, in this thread, not to talk about her job but about the clothes, and how she looks in them.

 

[Sereta]

I think all women struggle with a pudge belly for various reasons. Her skink is always so glowing. I wonder what kind of skin care she uses?

 

[CrownPrincess5]

Mette Marit should never wear black unless she has to.
The color doesn't suit her. Black looks more lovely on Mary.

I agree shanaz, as a woman gets older her abs are harder to maintain. Especially after children.

 

[Her_Majesty]

Mette Marit should never wear black unless she has to.

I wish someone would tell her that.
Imo she looks so much better in lighter colours.

 

[Cinderella5x]

Let's send her a letter . We can all sign .
But I agree, she looks very cute in light colours and very severe in black. She looks way younger in light colours.

She should wear spanx. It would pull her tummy right in.

You made my day, Blujean!
What a great idea! Do women still wear it?

 

[blujean]

Sure they do. Spanx are gr8 for making you look slim . . . without having to lose weight.
You can even order them online. Just type in spanx.

 

[Sternchen]

They are also available in Germany now http://www.conleys.de/shop/search?query=SPANX

Doesn't MM also have neck and back problems? Which would make rigorous exercise difficult, hence the belly.
Princess Rym has a similar problem which fueled rumours of a pregnancy several months ago.

I guess it depends on a kind of back problem. I have back problems but I still can do sit-ups, squats and many other exercises. I also do martial arts.

 

[Humera]

Yes of course but neck problems would make it more difficult. Most ab exercises put strain on the neck.
