The dress is ok, but not my favourite. The color let her look some older. With another color, maybe marine and white it would look prettier. But this shoes are very cool!

I love the dress (especially the neckline, which is very nice), hate the shoes (I'm kind of allergic to that kind of shoes). Charles looks good too! Seems like a nice temperature over there. Oh, I long for spring/summer! :)

Britain's Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, tour the Egyptian museum in Cairo, 20 March 2006. The royal couple arrived Monday night in Cairo, kicking off a two-week tour of Egypt, Saudi Arabia and India meant to promote tolerance between civilizations. The heir to Britain's throne is due to give a speech and receive an honorary doctorate Tuesday from Al-Azhar university, one of the most renowned institutions in Sunni Islam, but his visit there has provoked protest from some faculty.

I love the necklace, I love the shoes but I don't think I am a fan of the dress. That really does make Camilla look older.
Prince Charles looks great!

I am not feeling the dress. I don't think it does anything for her figure (the cut nor the pattern). The shoes, however, are too die for. LOVE THEM!

Will there be three state banquets on this royal tour. Should we expect to see Camilla wear tiaras three times on this tour? I would love to see Camilla in the Delhi Durbar and sari that she got as a wedding present in India.

I like the top part of the dress, the collar is very flattering. Don't care much for the lower part. It's too clingy. Still, a refreshing look on the Duchess.

It is very encouraging that you don't have to be thin in order to look elegant. Both Maxima and Camilla are demonstrating that more womanly curves look great too. Camilla's shoes are absolutely fabulous. Glad to see that style back in vogue.
