the dress is superb and the color is amazing ; finally different hairdo !
Finally her hair is up - and what a big disappointment, she looks much more better with her hair down. The up hairdo just highlights her thinness which is also seen in her face, and makes her look much older. The cleavage is too revealing and doesn't work well on a woman who has so little to show. The colour of the dress is very lovely indeed, and the colour suits her well.
I agree - I am surprised nobody has pointed out before. I find the neckline far too low on this dress. Not a fan of the lace at all, the "shoulder pads" are ugly and the backside is painful to watch.
On the positive side - the colour is gorgeous and I absolutely love the hairdo. The eye make up is too harsh for me but Kate looks very pretty.
With regard to the low back, if you look carefully at the pictures from the back, there seems to be a line of color change right below her shoulder blades. I have decided that there is a nude lining of some kind from that point down.

While Catherine is very thin I don't think this is ugly on her.
It's funny to hear you pointing to her thinness while you never do it for one of your favourite royal (Letizia) who is in my opinion bonny (remember her ugly back in a strapless purple dress in William and Catherine pre wedding dinner hosted by the queen not to mention her skinny arms)
Letizia is in a whole a petite woman, Kate is a tall woman, 10 cm taller than Letizia. That makes a big difference to me.
Exactly my words!the dress is superb and the color is amazing ; finally different hairdo !
If you can see the inside and the side, the woman shouldn't even be wearing that dress, because that's an ill-fitting one.I think Kate's hair looks great at this event. I also got a good glimpse of the shoes and they do seem to be the same Jimmy Choos she wore with the white dress; they work much better with this dress IMO. Seeing her in a dress like this makes me realize that summer is on the way for some and is already here for others.
As for the plunging neckline, I feel that it would be vulgar on someone who had a bountiful bosom because you would be able to see inside the dress and the side of their breast. But for someone like Kate I don't find it vulgar because nothing is being shown. I felt the same way with her wedding dress and Pippa's bridesmaids dress. People with different body types can get away with different fashion choices.
My thoughts exactly, the long hair and slouch have gone together and are a very common bad habit.I like her hairdo, although it exposes her bad posture.
It's amazing what a good straight posture does to you and the gown you wear.

This is the one factor that detracts enough to make her normal, not regal. Once you see it it's hard to watch. Mary of Denmark either always had or has developed a regal stance - which just means good posture: her shoulders are back and her head up, aligned with her spine. Makes all the difference but if not trained early it has to be a conscious discipline to hold the correct posture.
Talking about her hair-do, while the design is nice, it's not properly done. If you compare hers to Mary, I find her hairdo has too many stray hairs popping up here and there. It's not been smooth down properly before braiding.
Should we really be comparaing Kate's updo with Mary's? I think not. Discussing and comparing are not the same.
I think Kate looks nice wether she have her hair up or down then again it depends on the dress and her choice to hairstyle. The dress she wore on the other hand I didn't like very much I think it's because of the lace back with buttons but the color is nice.
