AWFUL - just can do (and has) so much better. Loving eveerything about CP does her no favours - and neither does this dress.
The short Erdem dress is lovely, but it's very different; the neckline is different, the style is different (the gentle billowing of the hem on the short dress is lovely), and the short one is sleeveless.
Mary's dress is long, flat and has puffed sleeves that look nice on young girls. They don't look nice on women 40+.
I think colour mixes are great, but in order to really work, they need to be either in "cool colours" or "warm colours". These dresses have a mix across the borders, and in the long one in particular, it hurts the eye.
Mary's hair is lovely, and the earrings are gorgeous.
I did not see any puff sleeves on this dress. And I think it looks marvelous on Crown Princess Mary. This dress is demure and suitably for any women who are confident of their figure (be it >.40 <)
Mary recycled an ugly dress of hers:

It actually looks much better in these pics. It's soft and floaty and feminine. It's still not on my list of favorites, but it's not as bad as I first thought. Her hair looks lovely. Thank you, Roskilde!
