The color is great...but the style does nothing for her at all. Makes her look very broad and dumpy.

Someone please tell her to hire a stylist!!!!

I think one size bigger would've looked much nicer. I don't care for the black rectangular, they add something to the dress. Her hair looked good.

She has a great example in front of her and she's not learning, I wish she learns from her MIL

Indeed she does. She is the standard for those of shorter height or those with a little meat on their bones. She really knows how to knock it out of the park so, if Stephanie insists on dressing like an older matron she'd look a whole lot better dressing like Maria Therese.

Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie's Fashion & Style Part 7: June 2016 -

Stephanie and I have similar body types and I know the challenges of dressing it, but she consistently picks bad silhouettes for our shared figure type.

She'd look much better in more A-line dresses and tailored trousers and jackets.

And she absolutely needs to start making sure her clothes are better tailored and in the right size. She's a pretty woman and she could hit it out of the park with the help of a stylist and a good tailor and she has the resources for that.

She is not a girl she is a woman of 32, who dresses like a 50 year old.

That purple dress, the squares are just plain awkward

She has some nice clothes but ver bad tailoring and sizes ruin them. Or bad grooming. Sometimes both. I wish she would get some help.

These wide trousers are so unflattering on her. She needs some well tailored trousers

Pity as they ruin an over all nice look. I like the slightly asymmetric top, with just the touch of black, both of which add interest to a simple top. And her hair looks really nice. If she had a nicely tailored pair of black trousers, it would be a win

Hate coats that are shorter than the dress they are covering even when said dress is a very flattering pink. Like the hair (both down and up), hate the trousers (see below), adore the baroque pearls and and in dispair at the sight of the nondiscript knitted scarf knotted around and around her neck.

The top was very flattering and the trousers were in vogue 10-15 years ago and have not, as yet, staged a comeback. Fashion notwithstanding, they are ugly and do neither fit nor suit her.

The grey outfit looked lovely though her coat seems a size too small but the whole looked matched well and her hair pulled all up was lovely on her.

The outfit in France was professional, simple and suited her style.

I liked the look Stephanie chose for France. It was elegant and simple. I like the gray coat and her up-do from the engagement on the 14th, but the trousers don't do Stephanie any favors.

The look in France is lovely. I am not bothered by longer dresses then coats. Her hair looks lovely down for once

Her second look is almost a hit for me. The side trousers need to go. I really like the coat, though perhaps a tad tight. Her hair and accessories are on point. I actually like the scarf in this case. It is cooler by the looks, and I think the simple wool scarf us practical and looks nice with her overall look.

The dark coat is one of the best things I've seen her wear lately.

The coat in verdun was simply awful. It was navy with big black blocks of color on the lower portions and then had a white outlined pocket on the black part. The coat was too small and the closures were pulling and obvious. In the groups picture, it looks particularly bad as her mil is wearing a nicely fitted blazer, she looks a lot better and is of course older and has a more,challenging figure to dress, IMO. I liked the grey coat and scar with the hairdo and baroque pearls.

Wide leg trousers are back in style a long with culottes. So she wore those pants long enough for them to come back in style.

Wide pants look so much better on her that straight leg pants.

The Verdun outfit was nice although I didn't like the coat's black patches and pink/white? pocket trim. Either completely black or navy would be better.

I'm undecided on the Home & Living Expo outfit because in some photos Stephanie looks very wide and in others, she's fine. Never been a big fan of asymmetry and the random black ribbon/detail is odd. However, the outfit would be perfect for a modern art visit.

The "Plant for the Planet" outfit was very good and obviously she's bundled for warmth so I'm overlooking the cumbersome scarf. This pair of pants look flared to me, not straight wide-legged. Lovely hair and makeup for all 3 events.
