Crown Princess Victoria's Maternity Fashion: August 2011 -

[biboquinhas]

well I like the dress...

[Mirabel]

I don't care for the dress, it's not flattering to her. (I don't think it would flatter anyone really).

But I wish wish wish she would do something with her hair! It always looks awful strained back that way! A good haircut would do wonders for her appearance, soften her pronounced jawline, even make her eyes look larger. It's like she goes out of her way to find the most unflattering hairstyle possible!

I like the concept of the dress. CPV tends to wear her clothing too short, and it has carried over to this one. Were it not so short and didn't have that ugly hemline it would be better. I do like the fabric and the embellishments. If the hemline were straightened up, the garment made tunic length with a pair of matching tapered pants, she'd have picked a winner.

I like how you think . Your suggestion would have definitely made the whole outfit (and the wearer) look like a million bucks.

Oh, no. I do not like that dress at all. It's too shiny, the color is ugly and the white tights clash terribly with the dress.

I will say that with the exception of a few outfits, her maternity fashion choices have been really good. Let's hope she never wears this silver one again though.

I completely agree. The dress is just horrible

I'm sorry to say, but everything about it including the fake jewelry is just horrid.

I am sorry to say - that I agree with you. Victoria could do much better. The dress is too short, too big, the wole cut is unflattering as well as the fabric. I hope she will go back to her more classic wardrobe....

[rubies]

terribly made dress, I hope she didn't pay too much for it. I also think it makes her look bigger than she is. I don't mind the fabric, more tailored it could be a nice top over leggings or something......

Yes, I forgot to add that, thanks.

Victoria attended today at a wreath-laying ceremony at the old cemetery in Uppsala to commemorate the death of Dag Hammarskjöld, former Secretary General of the United Nations. It is 50 years ago Dag Hammarskjöld was killed in a plane crash in Ndola, Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia).

Hoping to get better photos. The coat looks very good, and the black dress looks beautiful. And no ponytail - her hairdo is nice.

She can wear this dresses the hole nine months !!The black jacket is very nice !

I have to say, except for 2 pieces,I have not liked her fashion choices since the annoucement of her pregnancy.IMO they are unflattering due mostly to the length choices. I am not sure she is so heavily pregnant thet she needs to wear these smocks. I really liked Mary's approach to her last pregnancy and thought Victoria would do as well but as I said IMO on the whole disappointing.

[LadyFinn]

But every woman is different. Maybe Victoria feels that her baby belly is at the first place a private thing, just for her and Daniel. That everyone in the world doesn´t have to see every day how much her belly has grown. The magazines are screaming: Look, here is it, Victoria´s belly! Here you can see the belly! I´m sure that Victoria is extremely happy and feels blessed with this pregnancy, but she is a very public figure, maybe she wants to keep something as private. I can understand that very well.
I´ve liked many of her maternity clothes, especially these ones:

I totally agree with you. If Victoria and Daniel are trying to keep a small part of her pregnancy to themselves then good for them. Every little piece of their lives is under a microscope and if they want a little mystery then who are we to moan.

I'm happy for the crumbs they throw and am in perfect agreement about the outfits above.

I like the brown coat, but would like to see a better picture of the black dress she wore for the lecture. From what I did see, it looks nice.

Those shoes I'm blind.

[Duke of Marmalade]

The outfit looks pretty much thrown together, no style, no effort for a visit in a foreign country, messy hair and those shoes are gross
