No mixed feelings from me. I thought she looked lovely and appropriate. She never disappoints, IMHO.

"Turns out big brother was the one who had the meltdown."

And Kate scolding him. Priceless!!!!!

Consider Kate has impeccable taste the dress seemed like a total miss.
The fit at the bosom was off, the color seemed an obvious to make me invisible statement and the style of a 65 year older mother of the bride (no offense intended to older MOB's).
The hats are a true tradition in England and always find them interesting.

ITA. I'm no fashion expert, but to me Kate's dress, though lovely in it's own right, seemed like it was made for someone much older...it MADE her look old.

I already posted what I had to say about Kate's dress on the Pippa dress thread where many others did also.

Okay, this is just a little joke I'm trying to make so please take it in that vein. After just now viewing a couple of videos showing Princess Kate wrangling that bunch of little kiddos, I think she should have been wearing tennis shoes and comfortable sweats to Pippa's wedding. Ha!!!

Kate may not have chosen this dress, it may have been selected by her sister. Maybe Pipa didn't want anyone to outshine her!

Kate would know, as every woman knows, that you don't dress to compete with the bride or get people buzzing about bold fashion statements at a wedding. As for the idea that Pippa chose her sister's dress or needed to tell her what she could/couldn't wear - ludicrous.

Pippa selected a frumpy dress for her sister. She didn't want a repeat.

Yes, love the hat....looks whimsical and down the rabbit hole! RE Kate wearing a conservative dress because of her royalty status, I think this whole Pippa wedding was overshadowed by the royalty stigma. I question if Pippa's dress would have been so matronly and her ring so ostentatious (both very royalty influence), if her sister hadn't been Kate. I could have imagined Pippa in a lavish flowing stunning summer bride's dress with a generous but reasonable-sized diamond that was elegant and gorgeous. She is not royalty, but perhaps feels like she needs/wants (hmmmm....she did wear that ivory dress to Kate's wedding) to play the part. Just a thought.

Pippa's husband is quite wealthy; he could afford to buy her whatever she wanted as a ring, in her own right, nothing to do with any faux competition or oneupmanship.
