Annette Bening dress in a other colour could work on maxima
Madeleine could maybe try Penelope Cruz dress but with a higher bust line
Frida Hallgren dress could work for a pregnent princess but in aother colour

there are some bare backs do you think that fashion is okay for royals
how much covered do they need to be
would you say Lara Spencer dress is cut to low in the bust line for a royal to wear

Oprah Winfrey dress for grand duches M-T but yet again in a other colour

Is there any dress worn by a royal that looked to Hollywood in your taste

I like Sophie Okonedoīs dress for several young royals. Maybe Beatrice or Eugenie in a few years. Or Marie-Christine even.

Annette Beningīs dress for Silvia or Caroline. Maxima too. A different color. Good thinking, Josefine.

A higher bustline on Virginia Madsenīs dress and it would be good on Madeleine.

Great photos. So hard to decide on these things. I like Kate Winsletīs dress. Donīt know which royal would look best in it. Maybe Mary.

Well for me personally i like what CP.Mary wore ,the combinaison of the deep blue long skirt and the pink top,but i find that it would be likewise elegant and beautiful if the back was a bit covered like how did mathilde wearing the same style of top.

I don't know,maybe it's only me,but this kind of nude back reminds more a sexy hollywood star than a royal,and a royal should be glamour not sexy !

Actually it depends also of the people, the religieon that this royal is supposed to represent.

If the people who's represented by this royal doesn't find it self related to this royal or is shocked by it,so no need to claim being a representant of that people.

But generally,a royal dress in my opinion should be glamour but should respect those values!
