Some people have probably already noticed this but the dress Caroline wore to the Christmas gift-giving (I think the general consensus was that it was like a "clown" dress, with the ruffle) was from Chanel "Paris-Moscou" Pre-Fall 2009. Check it out:

Charlotte's outfit at National Day was also from the same collection.

And it looks like Caroline looted the bangles. I just can't remember where I've seen them!  Can someone with sharper eyes (or maybe sharper minds  ) ID them? Or are they just really similar to other ones she has?

I've always loved Princess Caroline's fashion sense. To me, personally, she has never set a foot wrong. Yes, I'm a fan, always have been. :)
That said, I've been scouring the 'net looking for my all-time favorite dress that Caroline wore in her 30's. She was in all-turquoise, including the jewelry, which made the perfect backdrop for her beautiful Mediterranean complexion. She looked like not only a princess, but a mythological goddess from long ago.
I recall worldroots.com used to have an outstanding picture gallery of her (as well as other royal & princely families), and it also had the picture I'm looking for. By the way, what happened to this wonderful site, worldroots.com? I noticed some time ago that all the pics were taken off, no longer updated, et al. It was honestly thee ONE source for me. I would go there all the time looking for info. & pics on my fav royal & princely families. I'm so sad to see it gone. :(

The Chanel dress looks clownish indeed. The 2nd outfit/coat is much better. Actually Charlotte caught my attention here. She looks very elegant, for the 1st time probably.  I know many people will disagree with this, but I'm going to write it here anyway: Perhaps we shouldn't expect more from Monaco anymore.

It is "clownish" but she somehow managed to pull it off.

The clown outfit was awful! Sometimes Caroline can look stylish and fashion forward. She dressed better in her earlier days imo.

Great finding, Thecia! I mean, good job matching the pictures of Princess Caroline and Charlotte and the original model designed by Chanel.

that is what a woman of her wonderful age should wear. Bright fabrics and colours. Very french and utterly sweet. Stronger make up would have made the appearance dreamlike!

Put Caro in a sack and she looks elegant. It is in her bones.
Caro always has sleeves on her dresses. and I love this imprinted one too along with the pink shoes.......Fab as usual.. never disappoints..

'Interesting' is all I can say. But it's too loud... Madonna could wear it, for example.

It is an interesting dress, and i think she is one of those few people who can wear it. She looked very nice, imo. Maybe i would change the earrings.

Princess Caroline attending The 2010 Princess Grace Awards Gala at Cipriani
42nd Street on November 10, 2010 in New York City.
I like the jacket, but I'm not sure about the ruffled skirt and the combination
of these two. Caroline likes to try out new fashion ideas and loves art, so
maybe that's a good synthesis for her

I like everything except the jacket. IMO her hairs are not suitable for her age. They make her look older.
Does someone have a picture of the dress, without the jacket?

I understand that she loves art and I guess this is the reason why she wanted to look like a sculpture last night...  I'm sorry, it seems to be a very expensive outfit, but the result is rather hilarious than beautiful. JMO
