Default Princess Marie Chantal's Fashion and Style

HRH Princess Pavlos has a wonderful sense of style. Her clothes are almost always very elegant and in soft, relatively muted colors that suit her. Just a couple of pics...


1. Wonderful deep greyish-blue, satin overcoat and what looks to be an elegant evening gown (does anyone have any pics of the gown itself?) from the wedding of Prince Joachim of Denmark to Miss Alexandra Christina Manley in 1995...

2. Again, muted tones in the form of chiffon (gown I am presuming), soft pashmina, and satin evening shoes.... HRH Prince Pavlos isn't a bad accessory, either!

3. HRH Princess Pavlos with Italian designer, Valentino...sea-blue-green satin, goddess gown...very Jackie Kennedy (especially the hair! not sure about that) The beading on the gown is wonderful...

4. HRH Princess Pavlos wearing the Diamond Fringe Tiara (of unknown origin) with pearls, lilac satin gown....from Corbis.com

5. ...with Prince Pavlos at a function....minky brown gown with hints of gold....

6. Pale pink satin and pashmina.... photo from: Rex Features

I think I have figured out how to do this. Let's give it a try.
I got this picture from the Miller Sisters Message Board. I don't know where they got it from so I can't give credit.

M-C seems to like gowns with mink or fur trim.

1. I think this one came from a VOGUE magazine photo shoot, but I am not sure.

2. Preparing for a garden party?

3. Proud to be Greek: a family portrait. I read somewhere that this photo was the front of the family's Christmas cards last year.

I think that Crown Prince Pavlos and Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece are the most glamorous royal couple in the world? What do you think?

They are a very glamorous couple. MC is almost always gorgeously dressed, Pavlos is just incredibly handsome and they look good together. I wish MC would darken her hair a little. She is beginning to look washed out with her hair that blonde.

I think that Princess Rosario and Prince Kyril of Bulgaria are really glamorous. Rosario is lovely and he is very handsome.

I agree that they are a very glamorous couple....but what is up with Pavlos' outfit in the top picture (tight shirt, acid jeans, George Michael-looking)? It does not even go with her dress.

Marie Chantal always looks fantastic in my opinion, she dresses so beautifully.
I also agree with exactly what Julia said above. Marie Chantal & Pavlos are a very glamorous and beautiful couple as are Rosario & Kyril of Bulgaria, these are my two favourite couples in relation to style, they always look so fantastic everytime and perfect togethere.

I do like a lot of Marie Chantal's wardrobe for the most part. But she can dress a bit matronly at times. Too stuffy. Plus I would like to see her wear a bit more makeup. But she is my third favorite Princess behind Mary and Maxima.

At Fredrik´s and Mary´s wedding in Denmark, Marie-Chantal wore a wonderful lightblue chiffon-dress!She was pregnant and it was a very beautiful design by Valentino, of whom she seems to be a great fan. Has anybody a picture of it?

Well, what I can say about her style? Is it glamorous, I don't know. I would say it's normal (maybe becouse she is not normal wife of normal Crown Prince like other CPsses). Many years ago I don't like her. But for few last years I've change my opinion about her style (I like her -light blue on danish wedding, really nice.)

Marie-Chantal's style just seems to scream "look how much money i can spend". She's the kind of lady who you could imagine in a potato sack if it were expensive and exclusive enough.

i think there may be some bias against her because people know that -unlike many of the current cp's- she comes from an immensely wealthy family and can afford such clothes on her own.

I think she dresses well and if she likes luxury than so be it- she is a princesss after all we expect them to be glamorous

Yes, I have to agree. Anyway, she always looks great, and I think they are by far the best dressed royal couple.
There are a lot of glam princesses/queens but many of their partners don't always dress as well.
