Nothing, it a break in the embroidery.

The colour of GD Maria Teresa's dress is nice. However I'm not a fan of the design nor the hat. I'm also not so sure about her shoes. I know I'm being picky here, but I think she wore too much pink today. IMO it would've been better if she had worn nude shoes and or a different coloured hat.
Princess Tessy's dress is probably my favourite, I don't mind the frills on it and the colour is very nice. Her hat is OK too.
I'm not too sure about Princess Alexandra's dress... the colour and shoes are nice though. I think Catherine and Alexandra of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleberg wore it better.

Best dressed amongst the guest is Tessy. Simple and safe but elegant. Maria Therese looks horrible. It's a heavy pink curtain fabric draped to be an outfit. Big no.
And Alexandra's dress, albeit stunning on Kate, is a miss on her. The color is too soft and it seems to have small fitting issues. I don't quite understand why she's wearing a dress another royal wore like two years ago.

Alexandra was a bridesmaid/attendant so the gown pick was Claire.

I like the dress of the bridmaids but when the magazines make the comparation of Alexandra with Kate, it is such a different look, Alexandra looks in the heavy size! and it is possible only 500 dollars for the dress?

HELLO! magazine spent years working day and night to promote Kate as the next Duchess of Cambridge, and now that they have finally succeeded she is still "Kate Middleton"??!

Princess Claire's outfits whilst visiting Japan:
Wearing a black outfit and blue/violet shoes whilst visiting the NEZU museum on 3rd November:

Wearing a white outfit whilst attending a meeting about the Sophia University's 100th Anniversary:

I wasn't so sure about Claire's skirt whilst visiting the Sophia University, but she looked great nonetheless. Overall, I like her black outfit, but the violet shoes look a bit out of place.

Claire is beautiful and she and Felix make a great couple. But I really disliked both her outfits for this Japan trip. And dark opaque stockings with light colored shoes are simply ugly, imo.
Very surprised and disappointed.

I agree. Not a fan of either of these looks.

I don't like the outfit she wore at the university event: the two pieces don't go together.
I love the second outfit, even the bright loafers against the black tights.
BTW, here is a post about the loafers

She needs to ditch the black tights in both looks, then maybe it would look better.

November 19, 2013 - Lovely suit worn in Turkey as part of a state visit. Its a lovely shade of grey and it's quite a nicely tailored suit.
