Does that have any meaning,or some subliminal message?

[anna_tan]

i was cleaning my room last sunday and i stumbled through my copy of Vogue, March 2003 (with Julianne Moore on the cover) and realized that excerpts from Queen Noor's book Leap of Faith was published in it. two of the four pics about the article are taken from the book, the other two are studio shots.
here they are:

the article was continued on pages 591-593, but i didn't scan those pages anymore since the article was just an excerpt from Queen Noor's book.

here are bigger versions of the pics:

Here's a link to an old issue of British Vogue, featuring Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips, back in 1973:

I wonder if there will be an update because so many of these royals have married and had children.?

[iowabelle]

Those are some of the best pictures of Anne, ever. Too bad we don't see them very often.

[Atene]

Princess Anne looks soo beautiful in these pictures:-)

Fred and Mary's Vogue photoshoot was also published in Point de Vue:

The Princes of Asturias (and the Spanish Royal Family, generally speaking) are not in the habit of participating in this kind of flashy photoshoots. The only time the princely couple posed for a publication was last October, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Prince of Asturias Awards. On the occasion, Prince Felipe wrote this editorial for the weekly magazine of El Pais and they posed for this couple of photos:

Does anybody else think that this was an attempt by the photographer or even Pavlos and Marie-Chantal to recreate the infamous Grace & Rainier photo here: http://www.leninimports.com/prince_r...race_kelly.jpg? Just wondering if it's just me, cause that's what it reminded me of.

[EmpressRouge]

I never noticed it before, but I think you're right. It does look a lot like Grace and Rainier. I wouldn't be surprised. MC is always trying to pass herself off as the contemperary Grace; look at her wedding gown.

[politikgirl]

Exactly. I agree about M-C always trying to pass herself as the modern day Grace Kelly (not in my books!) and this photo honestly looks like a blatant attempt to recreate a very infamous photo of the princely couple of Monaco. I'm going to go check out M-C's wedding photos now. Oh, and even the earrings in the pictures seem similar... diamond earrings?

Edited: I saw the photos. And yes, that dress looks like it was supposed to resemble Grace's dress. I think M-C should have gone with a more simple dress and one that was more appropriate to the period, because it looked ridiculous on her, while Grace's dress matched her perfectly.

you're welcome! i wasn't even aware of it myself till i re-read that issue.

on the thread for Princess Iman and Princess Raiyah, it was mentioned that a photo of Princess Iman was featured in Vogue's latest issue. i hope someone has a copy and place it here for us. thanks in advance!

[Zonk]

In regards to the Grace/Rainier, and MarieChantal/Pavlos picture....if memory serves me correctly...Grace/Rainier are actually the couple who are recreating a previous picture. Both the Duke and Duches of Winsdor and the Duke and Duchess of Kent, had already made similar poses in the 30's/40's for Cecil Beaton.

[RubyPrincess168]

Really? I don't think I've ever seen a profile shot like that of the Duke & Duchess of Windsor. Can you find it?

[Elsa M.]

As a journalist, Letizia was pictured in a special issue of the Newspaper ABC, about the new generation of anchorwomen. It was published in June 2003, a few months before her relationship with the Prince was known.
Here are some of the photos:
