Can't wait to see Beatrice as a bride in a few months!

Beatrice is my best dressed of the guest at the christening. I saw a closeup of the dress; the little beads are pink and blue.

If she dresses like she normally does she will be stunning.

She's not 'donna' because she was born out of the wedlock: her mother is Count Borromeo's longitme mistress. Bea's just "la signorina Borromeo".

Totally agree and am very much looking forward to the wedding to see her choices.
I hope there is serious coverage but that may be expecting too much. At least we should have photos after the fact.

Any idea who the dress is by?

I think she looks wonderful. I suspect this is not a dress but a coat and I think it is Valentino. I remember to have seen something similar in a Valentino fashion show some time ago, but I'll need to check it.
EDIT: It's a dress, and from Valentino.

Thanks for the closeup!
Beatrice looked gorgeous. Although the hat seems huge, it does not overwhelm the look.

A lovely hat (although a bit smaller would have looked better IMO), and a great updo. She looks beautiful.

The dress is lovely, it also seems quite dainty and reminiscent of the dresses worn in the Regency period IMO. The hat is a little on the large side for me, but it works well with the dress. Her hair is great.

The whole ensemble works for me. Beatrice is one of the few women of her generation that really "get" the dramatic use of both great updos and gorgeous hats. And once again, she delivered. Better still, her updo was very elegant and perfectly complimented her choice of millinery.
Beatrice seems to like a chic, pared-down look and lets the pieces speak for themselves. Her personal style is more in line with Charlene, clean lines, flattering hairstyles and elegant jewellery Same with the daywear for the Baptism. Both the occasion and the venue both called for a hat, and she delivered with a very elegant and stylish ensemble, perfect from tip to toe.

I'm completely the opposite. I thought the hat was the most noticeable thing and also my favorite part of her ensemble. In fact, it's probably the only thing I liked about her ensemble.

I must say she looks good, green is not a color for everyone...

Excluding the scarf, I love the outfit.
