So, so beautiful...
Its nice. A big change from some of the other more 'modern' dresses she has worn over the last month or two.
I like it.

I don't like the pants at all.
The pants are too wide. This outfit does nothing for her.

The velvet dress is really pretty. I am glad to see that she didn't wear her eternal ponytail with the dress.

I thought royals save wearing all black for funerals only. I do wish the dress was in another colour, maybe dark green, it would have showed off the cut and folds more.

Nope. Not all of them at least. HM Queen Elizabeth might, but Victoria's generation dont seem to. Dont overdo it either though, for the most part.

Default Victoria like we've never seen her before!

Can't believe nobody posted pictures of this dress yet!

Victoria wore it at the Polar Prize awards last month.
I just love it!!!!
Although I don't like the matching bag. Too much.

I love that red dress! It is one of my favorites. The accessories she wore with it were also fabulous.

A bit of a change...

You know, surprisingly, I think I'm a fan
The top of the dress surprises me a bit, a hadn'd really expected that kind of thing on a princess... but overall I do like it. Its thinking outside the box

I do not like this dress. It looks too much like a babydoll dress, and a bit young for her. To top that off, I don't think the shoes look good with the dress at all!

No ponytail, color, not and "older person" look, I call that win. I don't like the bow, but aside from that it a really nice look. At least she's trying something, thats better then not right? Think of it as her trying to find her look she is comfortable with. And as long as she doesn't over do it like the young British princess who-will-not-be-named its a good thing. I also tend to think that having a stylist is "cheating" so I like that she choses herself.

Iīm a little surprised of this dress that Victoria wore last night. At least itīs something new, but I think itīs a little too youngish for her. And I hope that she would stop standing like this:

It looks uncomfortable and makes her look like a little girl, not a future queen.

The dress is a bit too much much "Barbie", IMO. ... too tacky.
I really don't like the bow ... but at least the cut of the skirt is really cute.

It would have looked nicer longer. That is something a celebrity would wear and not very well. I can see what the idea was but didn't come off and the shoes are wrong.

I love the red dress from a few days ago, she looks really good in that color. The black and pink not so much.

I completely agree! It looks silly on her. Black and pink usually make a great color combination. This dress is the exception to that rule. Icky!
