Stephanie and Guillaume arrive in France for an official visit.
She looks bit of a hot mess, especially as this is formal visit to another country. If Catherine, Mary or Mathilde showed up looking disheveled and wrinkled there'd be a pages of complaints on these boards. I give Stephanie credit for the suit. But messy hair and that darn scarf take the simple (wrinkled) suit from nice to sloppy. She definitely should wear skirts more often though. She has great legs and wears simple suits well. She just needs a tailor and better quality clothing IMO. She also look much better in true colors.

I personally don't care about the turquoise suit. I think the jacket shone more when she wore it with the black trousers.
They are now in France in an economic mission. Yesterday in Paris:
Full view ** Closer ** Side view
I like this suit but again she hid the jacket with the scarf. Plus, her bag is horrible.

Oh, there's the ubiquitous scarf again overwhelming a passable suit. And her hair looks somewhat unkempt.

I like the gray suit. It suits Stephanie's style. The scarf would look better if it were tied, rather than left to hang. The problem with the hair is her choice of a flimsy hair clip. She needs something a little sturdier

The suit doesnt fit and the hem looks uneven. Her hair is a mess.
He doesnt look that great either cos I think he's outgrown his suit.
They are representing their country, for goodness sake.

I like the look overall, soo much better thanthe grey.
Not 100% sure about the grey part of the skirt but its ok.
My question is - why are the sleeves too long again. This is very close to very good. Please give her the resources to sharpen up her clothes.

I noticed the too long sleeves as well. Again, she needs a good tailor. But I'll take what I can get sartorially from Stephanie.

I was really loving this suit and the color until I saw the gray band. That bothers me more than the long sleeves which I don't think look too bad.

I don't think the sleeves are too long. In overall, I like this outfit and she looks good. I love her nude pumps.

I agree,the grey suit was subtle & elegant, appropriate for the event,but the scarf was a little bit mis-placed,it would look nicer if she took a shorter scarf or tie it around her neck more closely like in this picture (just as example how it could look like, I found this image with google): http://www.nelou.com/artikel-804117/...iété-van-Kroen
The orange suit was very refreshing and looked fashionable and chic, I like this style and colour!
HGD Stéphanie´s little bag looked cute too and matches her outfit very well.

Finally she looks presentable in the coral colored suit. Didn't see her shoes though.
The grey suit was fine but didn't fit and the scarf looked ridiculous. It would have to be MUCH smaller to look ok. And her hair was really unacceptable.
Lets hope she keeps up this good trend now.

I think the people in the palace feel the same as the majority on here. WE like her; she looks (and maybe is) vulnerable and no one wants to upset her. Sop they let her out looking not so good.
How long does she get? Is it a junior royalty so it doesn't matter?
She is still representing that country and apart from 2 outfits it hasn't worked.
I want it to work but, good grief, nothing is 100%. And dont tell me its too soon cos the posters on here were coming after new CPs and Catherine well within 6 months.

The turquoise suit: LOVE it!
The grey suit: Erm, I've got my nitpicks, but overall for how it looks on her, YAY!
(Note to Steph:
Would you like us to come relieve you of your security blankets ---- OOOOoops! Scarf collection??? We'd be MORE than happy to!)
Coral Suit:
Overall, YAY!
Again, I've got my nitpicks, here, too, but I won't even BOTHER to go there, seeing as how she seems to be making pretty reasonable improvement, gradually.
I'll take what I can GET on the positives!
Keep it UP, Steph!

I'm another one who doesn't get the issue with the sleeves. I think she looks great!

This gray band was what did it in for me too. The color and style of the suit are lovely, and look great on Stephanie, however. Wish there was a way to get rid of that gray monstrosity.

I like the grey band. It gives the suit interest rather than unrelieved peach. It takes the suit to youthful rather than staid.
