If you can believe it, Queen Camilla wore DIOR to Royal Ascot Day 1

Tuesday was the first day of Royal Ascot. King Charles and Queen Camilla were there, and they apparently plan to attend every day. They arrived with Camilla’s sister Annabel Elliot, Annabel’s son Ben Elliot (who is a Tory operative) and Princess Anne. There were other royals and royal-adjacents in the mix too – Princess Beatrice was there with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi (he loves Ascot) and Zara and Mike Tindall were there. Zara’s particularly close to her uncle, the king, and she seems particularly close to Prince William as well.

Interesting fashion note: Camilla wore Dior at Ascot. Was she behind the whole f–king Dior narrative which consumed the British tabloids for three solid days? The Mail, the Sun, the Telegraph, the Mirror and every other outlet all ran stories about how the Duke and Duchess of Sussex would sign up to be Dior ambassadors (they will not), and now Camilla steps out in Dior? It’s a message, but I don’t speak Horsey Sidechick.

Other fashion notes: Zara wore a pale floral £660 dress by Leo Lin which I actually sort of like for the occasion. Like, it’s Ascot in June. She looks fine and appropriate. Beatrice wore a £495 Beulah dress which is completely awful. I’m begging designers to stop making sh-t that looks like this.

    I’m not really sure Camilla was behind the weird Dior narrative over the past few days, because what purpose would it serve her? If I were her, I wouldnt want people making comparisons between Meghan in Dior and me in Dior.

    But, what I did find it hilarious about it is that I saw a lot of comments on social media about how KATE could never have a Dior partnership (??? like anyone is asking her???) because she’s a BRITISH ROYAL and as such only wears BRITISH BRANDS. (which is a lie anyway, but that never got in the way of a good deranger conspiracy, right?) and now out steps the British Queen in Dior, lol.

    Zara looks fine, her mother looks better.

    Beatrice…..that is a rare misstep these days, Edo must not have been there when she was shopping.

    • acha says:

      It’s even more bizarre because the Dior designer is British

      • B says:

        Wait- was this DIor ready to wear or Dior bespoke?
        There’s a difference.
        And did Dior approach her or she approached Dior.
        Dior probably wouldn’t let me in the side door, but, if I were working there, I don’t know if I would want C repping us. Most clothes don’t look that good on her, even at best, its just going to be passable.
        That’s why I’m saying, did her assistant get it off the rack?
        But also, her boobs are….. very British. How was there even a Dior item available to fit her if it wasn’t couture. But why would they agree to couture anything for her?

        Also – @KRISTA’s comment below. Yes 100%. If that truly is Dior (which is difficult to believe in the first place), she absolutely made it look like Dress Barn. Maybe her assistant sewed a Dior tag onto Drew’s Barn?

    • MrsBanjo says:

      She clearly didn’t learn from her attempt at copying Diana’s revenge dress ensemble.

      • BothSidesNown says:

        No she didn’t and she is going to repeat the same mistakes over and over. Cowmilla should take the time to be fitted for a proper bra as well!

        Why do the women of the BRF refuse to wear a proper bra??

        @ B, that’s an interesting question as to how Cowmilla was able to snag this supposed Dior ensamble. IF Cam chose this off of the rack, she chose poorly and IF Dior had presented this house dress for her they did her dirty….. Either way she looks simply dreadful.

      • The Recluse says:

        Trash in a fancy dress is still trash.

      • Lynn Chang says:

        What are British boobs?

    • Alexandria says:

      I think for the purpose of Dior highlighting what she wears on their social media pages, like what they did for HM. Not sure if they did tho, I din check.

    • Tacky says:

      She’s working the hell out of the Crown Jewels.

      • BeanieBean says:

        That is a gorgeous brooch! Too bad it’s on…her.

      • Peanut Butter says:

        Diana learned how to choose the clothes that brought out her best. Her sense of style was so strong that it wouldn’t have mattered if she hadn’t been so beautiful; she would have worn what played to her strengths, and worn it well. It was a genuine delight to see her choices when stepped out. She was a visual fashion feast, like Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. That’s all I need to say about the BRF today.

    • Lemons says:

      Personally, I can see her wearing Dior/building up that relationship to try and cut H&M out of any possible ambassadorship deals. Has she worn Dior before Meghan started wearing them/Harry used them for his suits?

      But with no deal on the table…is there a message beyond, “I can wear it too!”

      • B says:

        Ok so I just checked Dior’s News and Events page. That shite is definitely not featured on their main news page.

        Also, I checked their size chart. Guess what ladies, and American 14 is (ha! Don’t be swallowing coffee when you read this) is an international standard 3XL and a French 46. This is not about me trying to body shame anyone. I’m a little bigger and I don’t care. But I seriously do not think her pictures match up with a French 46. I’ve tried French 46 on. It was quite constricting.

      • Bee says:

        That’s some pretty sad looking Dior, in any case.

      • Harper says:

        Has Meghan worn Dior in the past year? Not since the Jubilee, IIRC. No, this outfit struck me as Cams coming for Harry too, who knocked it out of the park at the Coronation in his custom Dior suit, even though he was seated in the third row behind Anne’s purposely positioned hat feather. Cams is really stirring up a lot of mischief as the Wicked Witch of Windsor, spreading rumors, commissioning gotcha Dior outfits, and sticking her family in the royal carriages at Ascot.

      • Jenn says:

        B, are you saying that Cammy had her own royal tailor adulterate the Dior ensemble by adding panels of fabric? My, my. (The BRF commonly has its tailors “adapting” dresses, though, right?)

    • AnnaKist says:

      I don’t know if she started the Dior rumour or not, but if she did, it would have been to get the exact reaction it got: masses of more hate for Meghan. I would not put anything past her. She is a petty vindictive cow.

      As for her ensemble, she looks as if she’s ready to play a match with the Windsor Septuagenarian Ladies Bowls Club.
      I hope she gets kicked by a horse.

    • Lightpurple says:

      Anne looks the best out of all of them. That’s a really pretty color.

      • beautifully broken says:

        Agree! Anne looks great in that silk coat.

      • Bee says:

        Anne is by far the best dressed of the “working royals” consistently. Anne is always put together, always classy, and never puts a foot wrong, style wise. She doesn’t copy anyone. She just looks great all the time. She knows how to do it!

        Too bad they don’t have female primogeniture. She’d have made an excellent queen to follow Elizabeth. Instead she gets horses and lighthouses. Not such a bad deal but she’d have been so much better at the top job. I bet she’s never cursed at a pen in her life.

    • BayTampaBay says:

      “Zara looks fine, her mother looks better.”

      Only Princess Anne can pull a 30+ year old vintage suit out of her own closet and make it look fresh.

  2. Eowyn says:

    Good lord, that woman beside Zara in the bright yellow hat. Wow.

    • BizzatchExtrordinaire says:

      Right??!!

      • KFG says:

        Anne is the only one of that lot who looks nice. The rest look tacky, out dated and just tragic. Bea didn’t listen to Edo and Zara is wearing a shower curtain. Her friend looks like she’s wearing mesh covering over a disco ball. Terrible.

    • Miranda says:

      I don’t know what to make of her! On one hand, WOW that’s tacky. It’s like Fran Fine tried to upcycle an old dress with a plastic fencing bolero and trim. But on the other hand, I love it when people at events like this have a bit of fun, because everyone else always looks so staid and conservative, taking the dress code way too seriously.

    • Alexandria says:

      I like the hat. I can’t wear it but Fran Fine would work it! The outfit is totally hideous.

      • Eowyn says:

        I LOVE the Fran Fine reference.

      • Brassy Rebel says:

        Yes,it is hideous, but so is Zara’s outfit. It looks like an old house dress which needs pressing. And a pointy collar!? Once again, Anne looks the best.

        Look at the calf muscles on that woman next to Zara. She must live in spin class!

      • B says:

        Don’t you dare slur Fran Fine with such a comparison…..

    • Josephine says:

      They all look horrible. Zara is wearing wallpaper. This whole event looks like cosplay. They need to wake up and enter the real world. These events are embarassing and should infuriate the 99%.

    • Lightpurple says:

      What even is that?

    • anotherlily says:

      I think it’s Zara’s friend Dolly Maude. She’s a midwife and helped deliver her youngest child.

    • Zan says:

      She looks like she got tangled up in the wash, as my mom used to say!

      • JaneBee says:

        She looks like she was involved in a fake tan spray gun malfunction 😂 Maybe it’s another early oughties trend making a comeback.

  3. Nic says:

    Princess Anne looks the loveliest of the lot, and probably put in the least amount of effort… as usual. The RF might have stood a chance had she been regent.

    • equality says:

      Yes. Hers is the only look I like. The dress has kind of a metallic sheen.

      • BothSidesNown says:

        Anne has worn this exact coat a few times in the last year. It’s one of my favorite looks of Anne.

        Anne is the only one out of that bunch that know how to choose the right clothes and how to wear them.

      • BeanieBean says:

        @equality: that’s a hallmark of shantung silk. I think we read here about Anne, or was it the Queen?, coming home from trips with bolts of fabric. This fabric was likely from one of those trips.

      • BayTampaBay says:

        FYI: The suit (ensemble) Anne is wearing is 30+ years old.

        @BeanieBean – Anne is the one who comes home from trips or tours with bolts of fabric for her “dressmaker” to fashion into outfits. This appeared in Anne’s last Vanity Fair Interview for her 70th birthday.

      • KFG says:

        And why don’t these women wear proper undergarments? All that money and not an ounce of taste, excluding Ann.

    • MsIam says:

      What’s with the winter gloves tho? I’m just not a fan of Anne and her mothballed outfits.

    • MsDoe says:

      Was coming here to say that — Princess Anne looks the best. And would have made a much better monarch than Charles.

      You can dress Camilla in gold and jewels, the best designers in the world can create designs for her, and she always looks the same. It’s only now that I appreciate just how delightful Queen Elizabeth always looked.

    • Nikki says:

      I would have liked a full on front picture of Anne’s outfit, but yes, it looked the best. I’d have liked Zara’s dress except for the full sleeves. Beatrice’s dress looks like my great granny’s twin bedsheet. Camilla’s isn’t awful, but white does her no great favors, AND it would have been so much better to minimize her large bust if her top had had an attractive vertical trim on the edge. Ah well…Anne for the win…

  4. SarahCS says:

    Personally I’m not a fan of either dress, they both look ugly to me but horses for courses.

    Camilla in Dior? Honestly, how would we know? It looks just like every other housecoat dress thing she goes for on a daily basis. The fact that we are being told it’s Dior on the back of all the Sussex reporting just reinforces that these people have all the money in the world and too much time on their hands, we pay them to sit in palaces and stir up nonsense like this (with their allies in the press). This sits nicely alongside all the stories also in the news this week about people whose current fixed rate mortgage terms are up and the eye watering increases in monthly payments they face, needing to sell their homes, etc.

    • Amy Bee says:

      Exactly. Plus Camilla becoming Queen has exposed that she’s as workshy as William and Kate.

      • Flower says:

        What’s interesting is that the Rota are now trying to paint a picture of Meghan & Harry being lazy and work-shy based on what the Spotify executive said and tying it back to courtiers who are now saying H&M were lazy and didn’t do enough engagements etc.

        It’s incredible to me (a Brit) how the UK tabloids feed the general populous so much misinformation and 70% of the UK public swallow it whole with no critical examination.

        This is how we got Brexit.

  5. acha says:

    I saw so much weird preening from a certain group that QSC wore Dior On Purpose, To Be Mean. Why is this worth preening about? It’s just showing Meghan’s power to drive narratives, even if all she’s doing is quietly living her life far away from this bs. Not only that, it’s showing how ridiculously petty the RF can be, and (as Kaiser said) points to who might be the main mean girl.

    • Jais says:

      Yeah, the high school pettiness of it all is something I will never understand.

    • MsIam says:

      How is Crocmilla wearing Dior being “mean” to Meghan? Like Meghan can’t wear (and look gorgeous ) in Dior ever again? These people are so fckng dumb. And Crocmilla looks horrible in her Dior bedspread anyway.

    • SueBarbri33 says:

      I saw that various places online, too. Yuck.

  6. Amy Bee says:

    I didn’t like Zara’s dress too granny. Given that Camilla allegedly wore Dior we can say that she’s working closely with the editor of the MoS. Kate better watch her back.

    • SarahCS says:

      I’m pretty sure a sewing book I have from the 80’s for household stuff has some curtains in this fabric.

    • L84Tea says:

      Zara’s dress reminds me of couches/sofas in Florida homes in the 90’s.

      • BeanieBean says:

        Pick a decade, any decade, there’s such a lack of style it’s hard to tell. Flower print, skirt of indeterminate length somewhere between knee & ankle, high-heeled pumps, big stupid hat, and that’s Ascot. English to its core.

  7. Niki says:

    These are some of the worst looking people ever. They make me cringe with how decrepit they look. Yikes.

    • L84Tea says:

      Decrepit, dumpy, frumpy, boring, stuffy, and uninspiring in every way.

    • TeamMeg says:

      Totally! Cringe-o-matic.

    • Flower says:

      Which is why Meghan did not stand a chance with them.

      And since Meghan has left each and every one of them have tried to emulate H&M.

      • WHAT says:

        Coming to say that. Zara has aquazarra shoes and seems like her pointy collar has to mirror 🪞 the one that Meg has on in the Dior outfit. Her dress is matronly and dowdy.

        Camilla wearing Dior just says how she tries to fit in and even with the title just will be a footnote. Head to toe Dior with 🧤 and STILL comes across desperate.

        Don’t start me on princess copycat. And is that her dress that the lady is wearing in the picture with Zara and her husband. You know she’ll show up this week with her FOMO self. Her and Sophie

        Beatrice piss Morgan 🆕 BFF reverted 🔙 to her old looks. Like her Mom. She can’t dress to save her life.

        Elvis has left the 🏢 three years ago and they STILL are using her as a blueprint cause she’s the one, and they haven’t seen someone like Meg since Diana. Those are the facts.

      • Flower says:

        This reinforces a theory I have that C&C are manipulating in the background to interfere with Meg’s long established relationships and possibly her contracts, bc otherwise why are all the Royal and society women all of a sudden wearing aquazzura?

        And why would aquazzura want this – granted he’ll sell more shoes for a season or 2, but thereafter the cool factor of these shoes is gone.

    • Josephine says:

      It is amazing how they manage to be so singularly unattractive.

  8. Ariel says:

    The Duchess of Sussex lives rent free in their heads. All day, every day.
    Just minding her business in California.
    Bless their hearts..

    • Amy Bee says:

      Most definitely and we thought it was only only William and Kate who had that problem.

  9. ThatsNotOkay says:

    Nothing to admire here. Absolutely nothing.

    Except for Camilla’s gameplay. YES she was behind the Dior lies, just so she could come out the victor. Go on with your bad, racist, manipulative, conniving, controlling, evil, ugly self, Camz!

  10. JanetDR says:

    With any grouping of royals, it is always Anne who is dressed the best!
    I cannot get by the puffy sleeves on Zara’s dress- hard no for me, although the print is appropriate.
    Why does Beatrice think those headbands work on her? (Or on anyone?)
    Side chick doesnt look terrible but the fit is not great and the outfit is just blah.

  11. Krista says:

    Impressive. She’s managed to make Dior look like Dress Barn.

    • It'sJustBlanche says:

      Yes, it looks terrible! Maybe Dior did it on purpose?

      Also, I desperately need to know who that woman in the extra awful dress is.

      Honestly, none of these people can dress.

      • TheWigletOfWails says:

        I thought of this as well. The ladies of the BaRF have been trying so hard to be associated with brands Meghan loves and frequently wears. KKKate with Meghan’s aquazurras and now this slag wanting to be associated with Dior (I’m not sure they want it based on this outfit)..they have to attach themselves to her to get any attention.

    • AmB says:

      It looks like a “sewing for beginners” pattern from the 1960s.

      I always wonder how much of these outfits are the designer’s work and how much is “tweaked” by the client. “Oh, lovely, Roderick, but could you just alter the neckline a bit here … and add a coat, I really like those double-breasted buttoned ones … and could it be all white?”

    • Mary Pester says:

      I agree, but I have seen better put together barn doors! I would love to be a fly on the wall at Dior right now.. Just to listen to the screams of “who the hell sold our outfit to that woman, and why the hell haven’t we signed Megan as a brand ambassador, at least we could have avoided this frump fest? Somebody check our shares prices NOW for gods sake.” 😂

  12. ML says:

    Ah, the modern, stylish, feminist fashion icon of the British royal family is in the news again! (If that sounds confusing, see last week’s articles…) Like a farrier, one must strike while the iron is hot, and clearly wearing Dior at Ascot is the way to do it.

  13. Miranda says:

    I hate to invoke The Golden Girls in another royal fashion critique, so soon after I compared Kate’s Trooping ensemble to something Blanche would wear, but Zara is forcing my hand. That dress looks like it was Maria von Trapp’d out of one of their bedspreads.

    Bea, honey. Even your 5 x great-grandmother (I think my math is right?) Victoria would encourage you to show a little more skin than that.

    • BothSidesNown says:

      @ Miranda, yes with regards to Bea. Was her husband not with her when she chose this awful dress and the headband too??? Though I have my suspicions of Edo, at least he has brought Bea into a much more refined and elegant fashion style than before. And I simply despise these headbands.

  14. BizzatchExtrordinaire says:

    God, she’s a shady b*tch. Honestly…

  15. Eurydice says:

    I guess villains are only interesting in the movies.

  16. UNCDANCER says:

    Both Camilla and Kate need new make up artist. Someone with a much lighter hand. That is too much slap on a face as well worn as Camila‘s.

  17. Tessa says:

    Camilla s dress does not fit.well rather tent like. Comments about c and c at this event are scathing even in dm.

    • BothSidesNown says:

      @ Tessa, that’s wonderful to hear that even the Brits are expressing their disgust of C&C! It’s about time that they start facing the music of their deplorable actions.

  18. equality says:

    Some men can use the scruffy look and be sexy. Mike just looks like an old man who forgot to shave and bathe for a few days. Are Zara and KC close? She didn’t even score a behind-the-scenes invite to trooping.

  19. Flower says:

    Camilla better get her grift on while she good for this world, because the depths of hell await her.

  20. The Hench says:

    Can we also consign those terrible Alice band/headband frou-frou nonsenses to the fashion dustbin too? Kate went through a phase but this is a particularly egregious example from Beatrice. BTW it also contravenes the Royal Enclosure rules on hats that say it must cover the crown of the head. Two strikes!

    • BeanieBean says:

      That’s an actual rule??

      • The Hench says:

        Sure is! Ladies dresses must be below the knee, their shoulders must be covered, and their hats must cover the crown of the head. If this was anybody else, except for Beatrice, she would not be allowed into the Royal enclosure for contravening the dress code.

  21. Zoochy says:

    I actually prefer Beatrice’s dress to Zara’s (atrocious)

  22. B says:

    The UK press write nonsense and then have their bot farms and trolls spread it to create the illusion of mass interest. That’s what they did with the Dior story. It was a speculative article, then bot farms and trolls screamed about it for days and it culminated with Dior and the Sussex spokesperson saying there is no partnership and Dior stating they were perplexed about how this rumor started. Camilla’s biographer Angela Devlin then tweets at least we know there is no partnership.

    So either Camilla asked her friends in the media to unleash the bots/trolls and make it clear that a Sussex/Dior partnership would be bad because she’s jealous. Or she’s capitalizing on this negative UK media cycle. Either way Camilla has no interest in beating the evil stepmother charges.

    On the humorous side she looks like she’s wearing an expensive shapeless bathrobe so its not as if this is a win for her. I also seriously doubt Dior will be claiming Camilla is wearing their designs with the same pride they claim Harry and Meghan as the epitome of Dior elegance. I doubt they will even post about about her.

  23. DaniM says:

    I don’t mind the style of Bea’s dress, just the pattern – but I WISH she’d stop wearing those headband-style fascinators! Zara’s hat would’ve gone better with a slightly shorter dress IMO.

    How is RA not obligatory attendance for the heir? I mean, Wills may be staying away on purpose for the first day after he undercut TtC footage, but STILL. Wonder if he’ll attend the other two days.

  24. Plums says:

    Beatrice’s dress fabric looks like a bed sheet.

    stg everything about royal/aristocratic pomp post QE2 being there to lend an air of bygone charm to events just comes off as vaguely pathetic, ridiculous clownery. I can’t take the entire country seriously at all.

    • AmB says:

      It’s truly all cosplay at this point, isn’t it?

      • B says:

        Yes @AmB its literally all they have. Cosplaying Meghan so the press have something interesting to write about, so that the public will like them and most importantly their desperate attempt to erase Meghan.

        Diana was shocking to the royals because she hugged people and touched them without gloves and was interested in solving homelessness and helping children. It makes me realize they all were copying Diana until Meghan came along. Now they’ve pivoted and they are all about feminism, community, wearing pants and Dior now.

        They have a new blue print now but they are the same empty vessels they’ve always been.

  25. CC says:

    Mike Tindall is Eliza Doolittle’s drunk father in ‘My Fair Lady.’

  26. Nerd says:

    Dior is now going to start manufacturing bras to go with their clothes because of this one woman wearing their outfit, looking like she just exited a shower to put on a bejeweled robe and a ridiculous amount of makeup to mask her evil.

  27. Teagirl says:

    Is that Andrew Parker Bowles in the second picture? I’ve been zooming in on the name batch and it looks as though it is. They really have remained very friendly, haven’t they?

    • BayTampaBay says:

      Yes it is! Search the old CB threads for the complete story on Anne and Andrew Parker-Bowles.

  28. Patricia says:

    Who dresses these women?! Is everyone sure that Angela Kelly is still persona non grata? With no shots of Meghan they have no one to copy. Seems fair.

  29. Betsy says:

    Zara looks like the Golden Girls couch and I am here for it!

    The lady in the pop art outfit should wear lower heels if she can’t nail the posture.

  30. amadabasura says:

    That bell end next to Zara really detracts from her look.

  31. Ameerah M says:

    They all look awful to me

  32. B says:

    I think we are all looking forward to seeing what these women wear today.

    Edit- I just googled. Camilla looks terrible again; Sophie looks like the wrong type of secret weapon, and Beatrice looks cute.

  33. Cel2495 says:

    Gosh that woman next to Zara…those lips ! Wow

  34. Beverley says:

    Good god, royal jewels, multiple palaces, untold wealth…yet no decent bras?! Camilla please, do something about your girls!

  35. L4Frimaire says:

    Camilla’s Dior looks like a slightly more pulled together version of her typical housecoats so whatever. I’m surprised no one called out that she’s wearing an EU French brand instead of a British designer. Dior has lately been associated with the Sussexes so of course they couldn’t help themselves. Zara looks like she’s wearing some dripping watercolor. Basic shirt dress, nothing remarkable. Her mother Princess Anne actually looks better than her. Every time you think Beatrice has gotten a bit more stylish, she goes back to her usual frumpy styling.

  36. tamsin says:

    Well, if that is Dior, Camilla has managed to make the whole outfit dowdy and matronly. I shouldn’t think Dior would rush to claim they dressed her. Is she cosplaying Meghan’s coat dress at the Jubilee? Actually, I thought Camilla looked elegant in the carriage. And I think she is trying to break away from the Queen by wearing ecru instead of a colour for Ascot. I believe they used to take bets on colour she would wear. I wouldn’t be surprised if Camilla makes a point of wearing white or neutrals to Ascot. Of course I haven’t seen what she is wearing today.

    • windyriver says:

      The tradition was to take bets on the color of TQ’s hat, and apparently that’s continuing.

  37. Jeanette says:

    They all look like Easter Sunday at my Granny’s Southern Baptist Church.

  38. maisie says:

    you managed to find some of the most unflattering pictures of these people EVER. well done

  39. QuiteContrary says:

    No matter what label she wears, Camilla is mutton dressed as lamb. She’s a mess. She makes haute couture look like the Marks & Spencer clearance rack.

    And Beatrice’s whole look is tragic.

  40. Lizzie says:

    I assume both Camillas coat and dress are Dior? The coat is pretty as is the neckline of the dress. I call this Camilla supporting the Duchess of Sussex, lol.

  41. B says:

    Bet you there is some day drinking going on at Dior today….

  42. bisynaptic says:

    She’s the debutante at the morgue.

  43. J.ferber says:

    Any Dior would look bad on Camilla because high fashion and horse don’t mix.😊

  44. Bubblegum Dreams says:

    Camilla should forgo couture and just stick to her mumus. She looks like a Budweiser Clydesdale in that outfit.

  45. ann says:

    I think Zara looks awful and Beatrice’s dress is ugly, but I prefer the fit.

    On second look Beatrice’s sleeves are worse than Zara’s. Not the most fetching Royal Ascot.

    I don’t like any of these dresses.
    I will say Princess Anne looks nice because I bet her outfit is from decades ago.
    Anne just is so steady on. Keep Calm and Carry On is her in a nutshell.
    William should be learning from Princess Anne every day.
    PA Works a ton more official events than W&K and she is 30 years older.

    If I was Anne, I’d spit on the ground every time Camilla, that witch, walked past me.
    Oops, got a bug in my throat. Pardon me. LOL.

    Who ever that Dolly woman is in the yellow hat, that is a truly cheap K-Mart from the 80’s trashy outfit. She is very fit tho, look at those leg muscles.

    BubblegumDreams, Hard agree on Camilla and haute couture. It was never meant for her. I’d actually be happy if she got multiple pairs of those awful parachute pants onesies in very bright colors and have her prance around in them for the rest of her wicked life.

    It is a petty , unqueenly act if Queen Camilla wore Dior to take a swipe at Meghan.

    • May says:

      Agreed and it may have been just such a swipe because for day two of Ascot Camilla wore the dress that she wore to Harry and Meghan’s wedding!! Doubling down so we all know that her day one outfit was Dior-speak for yes, b****, I rule!??

  50. Moi Ra says:

    lol yet another lackluster affair! This doesn’t get much coverage outside of little England. The Mail editors deliberately planted that story about Camel wearing Dior and to have excuse to keep bringing up Meghan’s name when covering this boring event. They knew without it it wouldn’t receive much coverage just like past appearances (especially without Lizzy) . What a pathetic stunt. Goes to show how much Meghan’s name is worth and why gutter press is obsessed with them allegedly losing Spotify (which is copyrighted) they can’t use her work without permission. I bet they’ll try to sabotage their new partnerships like last time

    Is Camilla the new Face of Dior? Or is that two faced?

  52. Sketchy says:

    The only dress I like is Anne’s. And British designers will never stop making Bea’s dress its like printing $ with Kate around.

  53. Vi says:

    I think Camilla started the Dior rumor. It didn’t make any sense at first. Would Meg need to test the waters with a brand or sell herself. Either they sign a deal or they don’t. So the media play didn’t make sense. Then up pops Camilla in dior- so they say. It instantly clicked.

    I honestly don’t think she did it to be malicious. She just wanted a moment and to be a part. Camilla isn’t consider a part of anything. You know it stings. So I think she planted this story to get eyeballs. I don’t think she has the pull to see “Meg might sign with dior” and get a dress done up that same day. Maybe chuck started the rumor for her. Her son is capable of stories too.

    I know it’s early but her family hasn’t moved up in standing at all. None of them. It’s like Britain is ignoring them.
