Princess Anne's Fashion & Style, Part 2: September 2010 - April 2012

[Opal]

In all her years, Anne has never worn anything even close to vaVaVoom! I doubt very seriously if she will start doing so now. lol.

I don't think she will either. She seems to prefer to look professional.

 

[udyusa]

... and occasionally, frumpy. More's the pity.

 

[Sereta]

her hair looks nice; looks like she's had it done rather than just doing it herself

Her hair does look a bit different this time. I like the colour of her dress but it looks too light against her fair skin.

 

[Russophile]

The red outfit was va-Va-VOOM! I think it's over in her regular thread.

Found it!

If that's not va-Va-VOOM! Russo does not know what is! <insert tongue sticking out here>

 

[udyusa]

Sorry, but I will have to disagree with you, Russo. She looks older than her mother did at the same age. I will agree however, that the dress is a pretty shade of red.
I do wonder if we will ever see her wearing it soon, so we can see a full-length pic of the dress...

 

[lallyvee]

Her mother is prettier than she is.

 

[udyusa]

The Queen has always been prettier than Anne. And she is also much more elegant and chic in her fashions.

When I see my darling Anne, I don't expect the vavavoom factor..i wanna see her in her country chic clothes n' riding boots, with her beloved horses n' so on. When I wanna see vavavoom, i go back to Auntie Margaret {God bless her soul!} n' her glorious tunics a la 70s on Mustique, her colorful lipsticks n' that fabulous long hair! Aw, those were the days!

Fair enough!

I think this is a subjective thing to say. Anne always had the better figure and I love Anne the way she is. She can look regal when needed, too.

It IS subjective though I tend to take Udy's side on this. IMO, Anne got more of the Greek side of the genes though she is my favorite and she can look very regal at the drop of a hat. She has that prescence <sic> about her. Does that make sense?

She has a great figure, much better than her mother or grandmother at the same age.

Yeah your probaly right.

Yes, I agree she has a very regal and dignified look about her - a real presense as you said.

[udyusa]

Oh dear. I wonder what decade this dress is from? However I must say that I love Anne in red.

 

[Sternchen]

My guess is early 80's ...

 

[udyusa]

I think you are being kind, Sternchen...

 

[Sternchen]

It just reminds me of some of the dresses that Diana wore

 

[Dierna23]

I think you are being kind, Sternchen...

LOL, I too think it could be 80s. Very oldfashioned...

 

[NoorMeansLight]

This outfit is OLD. My goodness...

Oh My that takes me back to the 80's, I had a dress styled like that in navy with big shoulder pads.

Her closets must be a museum for vintage clothing, really, would be wonderful to see the styles.

 

[udyusa]

We already see the styles from her museum closets! That seems to be the only styles she wears, sad to say.. Anne could do sooo much better and look stylish, if she just got rid of her vintage clothing. Time for New fashions, Anne! (At the very least, some updated ones.)

Udy, she wore a lovely lilac ensemble for one of her duties over on her thread. She looked lovely in it and the color was very flattering.

 

[Sereta]

It does look like something Diana would have worn in the 80's.

 

[blujean]

The shape of it isn't good. . .too triangular looking.

 

[Sereta]

I don't like the flouncy skirt on the bottom of the dress. Red is a nice color for Anne though.

 

[4Pam]

Red is a pretty color on Anne. But I'm not sure if I like the 80's style or not.
