Crown Princess Royal wedding dress

[Daisiesforever]

[QUOTE=Rhys82192]Crown Princess Mette-Marit looks like Rapunzel in her wedding dress because of her long veil. But still she is beautiful!

I agree. Crown Princess Mette-Marit was a very beautiful bride. In spite of the gown being so classically simple and elegant, there was a lot of "drama" because of the extremely long veil. A very regal bride indeed. I just felt the bouquet was slightly "odd" and possibly spoilt the overall picture.

Camilla's gown definitely does not look grey, it looks like a mixture of a light blue and green. I have never heard anyone confuse it for grey.

My favourite is CP Mathilde of Belgium.

My favourite crown princesses dresses (of those either a direct heir or married to a direct heir):

1. Maxima (although I think the dress would have been all the more perfect with a different neckline)
2. Mette-Marit
3. Letizia (although this dress did not complement the bride, it is a very regal and very beautiful dress in itself – one that is really only suited for a royal bride)
4. Camilla
5. Mary (I really want to rank this gown higher for it looked so lovely in the sketches and was a great idea but it just did not work in real life)
6. Victoria (although the dress suited the bride and was very clean and allowed the tiara to shine, I was disappointed - I expected something more, although I'm not sure what exactly)
7. Mathilde

I agree with your comment on Mary's gown. The sketch and the actual gown some how did not work out.

I also agree with your comment about Letizia's gown. To me it sorta swallowed her like the dress was too much for her but it was well suited for royal bride and it was very pretty.

Mathilde and Maxima's gowns remind of one another but I can't tell you why.......

Camilla's gown at the blessing ceremony was a pleasant surprise and I love it still.

Mathilde and Maxima's gowns similar? Obviously I do not see it, ranking one at the top and the other at the bottom! Wish you knew why, or maybe someone else also sees a likeness and can enlighten us both!

The more I think on the 'real life' dresses of many of the royal brides, the more I admire Sarah Burton for giving so much attention to the execution of Catherine's dress (odd looking bust aside).

I prefer CP Victoria ,I think it is more suitable for a royal wedding .Besides ,I also have seen this same kind of dress for a empire wedding from Princess Line Sweetheart Neckline Natural Waist Long Lace Wedding Dress 861491 .It looks so exquisite and beautiful.

An updated ranking from me of the current crown princesses
1 Maxima
2 Victoria
3 Mette-Marit
4 Stephanie
5 Mathilde
6 Charlene
7 Catherine
8 Mary
9 Letizia

I know Catherine is not a crown princess, but she seems to fit better in this list than Camilla.
Before I had Mette-Marit as my number 1, but I love the regality of Maxima and Victoria more than the romantic dress of Mette-Marit. After seeing more pictures of her dress, it is the lower part that I loved the most, but not the upper part and I don't like that the veil was longer than the train.

[Moonmaiden23]

1)Stephanie of Luxembourg(the veil and pearl studded train are what puts her over the top for me!)

2)Maxima of the Netherlands(again...the veil alone is a work of art)

3)Charlene of Monaco

4)Mette-Marit of Norway

5)Victoria of Sweden

My list:

1. Princess Maxima
2. Stephanie of Luxembourg
3. Victoria of Sweden
4. Charlene of Monaco
5. Mary of Denmark
