I personally like it better in yesterday's version, without the collar. I thought Mary looked splendid thanks to the outfit, apart from the hair and those fussy shoes, what an ugly pair.
Today's version of the coat is far superior to that of it's 2008 incarnation. I think, as others have stated, that Mary has found a terrific seamstress, and the alterations are very flattering.

In this case I think removing the collar made a great difference and the coat seems a little more fitted, But I still love the delightful nonsense that is the shoes.

I also agree with many other posters that this occasion called for a really fabulous up do. Mathilde's was amazing.

Oh sorry, then here are the other shoes where you can see the red soles

Still love these shoes. They really are a delightful bit of nonsense and, to be honest, the world has more that enough "serious".

I love the gold shoes, too. They bring flirty and whimsy to an otherwise conventional outfit.

Other makes of shoes have red soles its no longer just a Louboutin thing. Plus looking at the pictures the gold shoes have a darker red sole than normal Louboutins.

plus the heel isnt red like all other Louboutins which makes me think they might be by another designer

Uggh Dupioni silk is too shiny. Plus, I don't like the fit on Mary.

This might be one of my favorite looks on Mary in a while. I have seen very high end versions of this here that are way out of my budget! I know I will get knocked for this but with such a minimal elegant outfit she needs better and bigger earrings.

This might be my least favorite! I don't like white white plus shine, and I'm not liking the style of pants.

That outfit is truly, truly horrible. What on earth was her stylist thinking?!

This type of style does not suit her at all!

The material is too shiny and the cut of the trousers looks odd, especially at the upper thigh. But I do like that black lace top.

Definitely a 'no'. I don't like how the suit fits, and the shiny fabric reminds of something that could worn to a 70s disco party.

This just screams no, no, no, to me. The shine, the cut, the pants. The black lace underneath all that. yuk.

A real disaster! It doesn't fit properly, mostly too tight. The pants are too tight, especially up top, the jacket doesn't button properly, it's too small and puffs out above and below the button. She looks uncomfortable. The black lace blouse underneath looks too much like underwear and shows below the jacket.
It kind of reminds me of a teenage girl wearing something to provoke her parents.
Not a CP look.
