I think you're being kind but since we're discussing it..... Beatrice looked ridiculous! That hat alone is embarassing but the dress was just, well, grotesque comes to mind. Completely inappropriate for a wedding. She looked ludicrous.

Since she has enough money to buy a four million pound aparment I recommend she get something less expensive and hire a personal assistant. Here I thought she was improving, and then she pulls this mess again.

Sometimes it seems like Beatrice is having a joke at our expense, honestly. She looks like a gypsy princess who's been thrown into a Cuisinart. Such a shame.

Not crazy abut the dress, what I can see of it with the jacket (which I do not like with that dress!), however the hat is another story. I like the touch of whimsy with the butterflies.

She is wearing a butterfly hat! What on earth made her think that a bunch of butterflies on her head would look good?

The hat is cute, and the dress would look cute without that jacket and belt. Also, the effect would have been better if she had put her hair up a la Lady Gabriella.

I guess that Beatrice's hideous outfit was the only jolt of color in an otherwise drab, gray day!
BUT, why do both girls throw on jackets which don't go with the outfit or dress over which it is worn?
Bea's jacket is WAY too snug on her - she needs a bigger size ... and plenty of fashion advice!

I can confirm at least one person on the planet agrees with me about Bea's hat!

One word describes the sister's style:

I give her points for having the guts to wear a collection of faux bugs on her head. Yes, she looked extremely unfortunate, but she's still a young adult and can get away with looking absolutely ridiculous.

Beatrice looks quite british I think , just like her sister.
Well, don't call me nasty, but as the two princesses are obviously no real beauty queens, her clothing and the hats look even more curious than they actually are.

That hat might of been the wrong choice but come on, she is young & at this age she should have fun & go for things she wont be able to wear or pull off in a couple of years. I like the fact that she is trying to be different. It would be boring to see her going for something on the safe side and look much older than she is. I give her a few points but this doesnt mean I like the hat.

Something smaller with less butterflies would have been more suited. The entire outfit was too busy--the dress and the hat. One of the two should have been subdued--and I completely agree about the coats. They're not hiding anything--just adding bulk.

Although the hat might be a little "out-of-place", I like the symbol of love that makes you feel butterflies in your stomach. That's how I saw it anyway
