I'm just a bit sad that you're promoting Temu. Temu and companies like it are under investigation by the US government. They're marketing very aggressively and undermining legitimate national companies by copying and producing with inferior materials. You've got to ask yourself how they can be so cheap. And when it says 'made in China' please remember the Uighurs. Great chance some of the products are made by slave labour.
Hello, Beebs Hey, can you please make a segment on Royal Engagement Rings? And include Princess Charlene of 🇲🇨Monaco? Her 💍ring is a STUNNER!! Thank you, PA
And we know why. She changed everything at the last minute. Again, it's on her. I don't understand someone making so many horrible decisions around this area of her life!! By changing at the end, her wedding dress for British Royalty was equilvalent to buying a dress off the rack.
@@gaylelile4088 I'm so obsessed with this now! 😂😂😂 How have I missed possible Dressgate?! I was a bit sad while watching the wedding, my Mom was about a year into early onset Alzheimer's, and we were going to watch together. I did end up watching twice, once Mom was able, so my memories are all mixed with emotions. I thought I liked the wedding. Not sure now.
Since she was married before, she should have not had a church wedding. The British people would have respected her more. Her gown should have been off white or champagne. A cowl neckline would have been good. A humbler approach would have been better. I know royal weddings are grand, but this was a second marriage.
Yes, if the future King and Queen had a low key wedding with Camilla wearing a pearl grey outfit (which looked 100 times better than MM anyway!!) Then MM as a divorcee, should have had the same.... she must have pulled some slippery stunts to get her way, maybe that's why there was so much dress changes and it was a rush job at the end!?? We all know it was more a 'net-working' session more than it was ever a wedding for old MM
@lynettefinnigan9540 Camilla wore cream (looked white to me) to the civil marriage and pale blue and gold to the church blessing (no actual church wedding for the divorcees). Both dress looked beautiful and were very flattering for her figure. Queen Elizabeth also wore a cream outfit for the days events.
And I agree. Camilla, now Queen smashed it with her Gold Wedding Dress and feathers. She looked amazing as an older lady with a little fuller than younger figure.
To me the facial expressions of all the brides was happiness. But Megan's expression looked to me, cunning & glee that she had gotten something over on everyone. It stood out to me.
Angela's dress fit and was appropriate as she had never been married. A self professed globe trotting, experienced divorcee playing at the virginal ingenue is an absurd image.
....b.c. she would NOT LISTEN to the excellent Royal Advice offered to HELP her OPPOSITION IS HER MIDDLE NAME. And her own family confirm the woman has been like it ever since a very spoilt childhood indeed.
@@loosilu She’s rude to everyone, not just her in-laws. She uses people including victims of tragedies and her own family. She’s obscenely greedy and she’s a liar. She’s selfish, self-centered, narcissistic and sociopathic. And she’s treated very well actually. Nice try.
Harry’s Wife’s wedding bouquet was too small, & the neckline looks wonky. The fabric was way too stiff & blindingly white. Nothing interesting or special about it, not even the bride who wore it
One of the bridesmaids was missing her bouquet. The florist has a story about incorporating fresh flowers from Kensington palace gardens.. That didn’t go well I believe 😮
I will put my hands up and admit that I was kind of pleased that Meghan’s wedding look was a fail. I didn’t want to like what she wore and she delivered.
I was looking forward to seeing the gown, because, like most people, I assumed it would be appropriate for her age and status as a divorced woman. I thought she would have a chance to really choose something different and unique, mature but glamorous. When Princess Catherine stepped out of the car on her wedding day to Prince William, I literally sighed and said, "Perfect". I *love* the ensemble she chose. However, when M stepped out of the car, I deflated, shook my head, and said, "Meh." Then I got a gander at the whole ensemble, include coiffure, and said, "This is a disaster". Oh well, I guess she started as she's continuing.
Meghan Markle's wedding dress was just poorly fitted. It also looked as though it wasn't properly pressed. And Princess Angela's dress--though similarly simple--was made of a more appropriate fabric.
I think because the dress was not approved by the Queen, so MM had an approved dress made for the Queen to see, then last minute rush to finish the other one, so she could 'once again' be rude to the Queen and wear it anyway!!
Watching the wedding in 2018, I recall my thoughts: -how sweet for Prince Charles to walk her down the aisle - how lonely and forlorn her mother appeared - how amazing was the music - and WHY in the world did she wear her hair like that?!?! It looked like she did it herself. The center part was jarring.
She wants to walk all the way on her own but was told no by the Queen hence Charles did the second half The dress she wore was not the dress approved by the Queen. She started right at the beginning to do things opposite to what was expected. Right down to getting in a car first, nearly having to push the Queen out the way to get in first. She is a despicable human being
... and did you see the vile look on her face when little Charlotte looked at her while passing her with the other flower girls ... bridezilla grinned at all the other flower girls and pages, except for Charlotte ... that says so much about her personality and maturity, and probably so much more than that. It was sickening, and very possibly noticed by the senior royals who were sitting close by.
@@bluemoon5662yes, That Look!! Poor little 3yr old Charlotte was terrified of her... and refusing the girls to wear socks or stocking.. MM knew they'd all get blistered feet, the Witch!! (And you see poor Charlotte pulling at her foot when she's with mummy later, I bet she had nasty blisters in new shoes and no protection of sock or stocking!!! 😢😢
As I watched this, I suddenly realized what my take on MM’s dress really is: it’s utilitarian. She’s just getting the job done so that she can get on with what she’s really after: fame and fortune.
It fits with her whole style approach: "minimalist", monochrome, poorly fitted as if it was ordered at the last minute and there was no time for alterations. Boring pieces with extravagant or costly accessories matched tastelessly.
I had a very simple backyard wedding but the one thing I really wanted was a pretty dress so i had that. Later in the evening, one of the neighbor guests suggested I go change and I said no way am I taking this dress off.
@@m.m.9684yes..all the flowers of Commonwealth countries, and added Californian poppies...was her idea back then that royalty could be blended in to America and she could go back home an be Queen??? I sometimes wonder how her twisted mind works, and nothing would suprise me!!!
@@m.m.9684--After the late Queen died in 2022, I binge watched documentaries about her. One of the interesting ones was about the Jubilee and up pops the Wife (😱) talking about her wedding dress and going on and on about the ‘original veil with Commonwealth flowers embroidered along the edge. I was furious because I’d just watched ‘A Majestic Life’ about Elizabeth II’s wedding and HER VEIL. The interviewer didn’t say anything BUT, a black and white cut in video with the narration of Elizabeth II’s dress, veil and the ‘original’ embroidered Commonwealth flowers😆began, and I got over my mad😉
But every story, MM has stolen a bit of their story...MM tells the story that she had a bit of the blue material from her first date with Harry. (However he remembered she wore a black top and jeans😂😂😂😂) the flowers like the Queen embroidered on her veil, adding Californian Poppies (even though they're not part of the Commonwealth) and I still think she researched that black woman who married in and used that dress look....copy, copy, copy....its all she can do, no style, no fashion sense....
I think she deliberately did not choose a British designer - I mean she wanted anything but that. Remember when she crashed an awards show for British fashion and wore a French designer. WOW.
I think she wore that bright white dress to make her skin appear darker. I think all along she was going to play the racism victim card. God, her hair was freaking disaster too and she could have been so stunning.
Mary is an example of what to do RIGHT when you're a commoner marrying into an old (oldest ) RF. She learnt another language and worked so hard to become a part of her new family and country . Her wedding dress was designed by someone from her new country and everything felt "real" and heartfelt . Also her bouquet was gorgeous . We're so proud of her here in Oz💛.
Is learning the language of the country you gonna live the rest of your life in really sucb a big deal..., I would considere that an absolute minimum. It's strange though that she dkesn't seem to have raised her children bilingual, thry sound very Danish when they speak English.
I was bothered by the stark white AND veil considering that this was her 2nd/3rd wedding. The dress she chose was stark, poorly fitted and the veil was overkill...
Brides wear veils regardless. The thing is to not wear a blusher over the face if it's not your furst wedding. It used to signify that you were a virgin. Catherine probably wasn't a virgin but that was her first wedding. Plus the catherdral may have rules, too.
@@loristoneking5711 Cathering, who caught Will's attention by parading around on a stage with barely any clothes on, lived with Will before the wedding. She is no virgin and should have worn red, byh your logic. But as we all know, she is now Saint Kate and can do no wrong, whlie Meghan, who literally committed no crime whatsoever, can do no right.
@@loosilucatherine was devoted to William even back in their college days. Catherine was modeling an outfit for a fundraiser in college. It was a sheer slip over a bathing suit because it was a college modeling project.. Meghan is just a garbage human being all around. Not sure she has any redeeming qualities.
I loved Princess Beatrice’s wedding dress which was a vintage Hartnell dress her grandmother wore in the 1960’s, slightly altered. Angela Kelly - the Queens dresser at the time added short sleeves and length. Beatrice also wore the Fringe tiara worn by her Grandmother and mother. MM looked terrible on her wedding day. The ridiculous long veil, frumpy dress and “tiaragate” made it difficult to admire. Rather than have all the flowers if the commonwealth countries embroidered down the sides, she should have had the dollar and pound signs along with “MEEEEE” embroidered there instead.
The Fringe tiara is quite beautiful. Beatrice's mother, Sarah, wore an equally beautiful tiara; one that was gifted to her. Sadly, it wasn't the Fringe.
Dollar signs, indeed.😂 I will quote what my late mother would say about her. " She should sing in an opera since all you hear from her is ME-ME-ME." As an American, I was embarrassed by her lack if style. Or lack of.
I was confused on the day they announced their engagement in the garden in that white belted coat with the uneven hem. Since then we have suffered her poor choices.
To me, it appeared that Meghans dress was wearing her rather than her wearing the dress. The veil was just hanging out there and was trying to get away.
Now we know how difficult meg can be, I believe it could be possible that the dress maker gave up and just let her wear an unfinished sample. How did she get it so wrong, because the dress certainly didn't look right for a ceremony that cost us £32m!
Can you imagine the whining....but she must have had a couple of dresses on the go (MMs usual game of smoke and mirrors) and put this one on (maybe not quite completed) because we all know the Queen did not approve a white dress for a divorcee, not even for her own sons second wedding...
Like most people I loved Catherine's dress, but as well as Princess Margaret and the Duchess of Kent"s dresses my other favourite was Lady Sarah Chatto's dress (exquisite simplicity). Also her bridesmaids looked beautiful as well.
I saw many of the royal weddings in the early 1969’s. I was very young and I loved reading all about them and watching on tv. Everyone I knew and the press seemed to love Princess Margaret’s dress and her amazing tiara. I was the same age, around 11, and shape as Princess Anne and I was really disappointed in the dress she wore as bridesmaid. The style looked good on the little bridesmaids but didn’t suit Anne. I thought Princess Margaret was a bit mean making Anne wear it.
I know she's not officially a Royal but Pippa Middletons wedding dress is my all time fave. Ahhh she looked like a modern day Grace Kelly. I could look at wedding dresses all day.
@@spiritmatter1553 haha yes, it would have saved them a fortune too! I’m sure they wanted their own day without it always being reported on a Catherine’s bridesmaids dress. Would have been hilarious if she would have changed into it for the evening 🤣🤣, she might have!
Pippas dress was pretty and fit her figure. Pippa is athletic and has great posture and a long torso- unlike meghan. However I thought it was a severe style. The lace overlay was serious and very edgy with the scalloping on the lace the designer commented that the design was edgy anyway, Meghans too laid back for that and wouldn't be able to carry thst off .
I know this sounds ridiculous but many people still associate white with virginity/ purity. At the very least a first marriage for the bride. Memee was 36 years old, had cheated on her boyfriend Corey Vitiello who she stalked IMO, and sent her engagement and wedding ring back to her husband in the mail. So much class all around. The look on H.M. Queen Elizabeth II's face was priceless, it was her grumpy " I am not amused " face. And what was going on with her hair? She had a hairdresser do that for her? It was a mess and disrespectful to the setting and occasion. Dear God I have turned into my mother.
You know, at the heart of the wedding dress color issue is the matter of respect. Respect for the family's beliefs, the thousand year heritage, the church she was marrying in, and for the matriarch and patriarch of the family. She showed none in her choice of attire. When King Charles and Queen Camilla married, they did so at the town hall, then went on to have a blessing in church. They were respectful in their marriage and their blessing, down to Camilla wearing two *very* lovely ensembles which did *not* consist of pure white. That is the difference, and that is why, imho, so many people were put off by M's choices. Pure white, a very long veil (shouldn't have been wearing one), messy hair, badly tailored dress, no stockings on the bridesmaids...it was precisely the *opposite* of what that particular royal wedding should've been.
In defense of Princess Anne’s dress. That medieval Juliet dress was absolutely on point for the time! Think the Camelot movie and Franco Zeffirelli’s Romeo and Juliet. Notice her only flower girl Lady Sarah Armstrong Jones is wearing a Juliet cap on her head. Huge in the 70’s!
I can't imagine what the critique would have been if I had needed a big-whoop-dee-doo public spectacle of a wedding dress, and went with an adaptation of one of my favorite dresses from film: the dress Hannah Gordon wears as Mrs. Treves in "The Elephant Man", when she hosts Mr. Merrick for tea. The first time I saw that film, as Ms. Gordon made her entrance in that dress, coming down some stairs, I thought: "I want one of those!" The dresses from the near-end of the Victorian era -- after hoops disappeared, when bustles were diminishing, and before ladies's sleeves started looking like hot air balloons -- are so trim and embellished that they just seem like extremely fertile ground for wedding dress inspiration.
To get the full effect of Princess Mary’s dress you have to see her walking in it; the skirt panels then flow beautifully with her motion. There are videos on TH-cam of her walking down the aisle and it’s the most romantic thing ever; Frederik teared up at the sight of her.
Not so much any more. The what meghan gets thing is losing its potency. Plus harry was childish saying that comment. I'll bet he regrets saying thst now.
Thanks Beebs for yet another brilliant video. It has been reported that Harry's wife was told by the Queen on no account was she to wear a white wedding dress as it would be totally unacceptable as she had previously been divorced and the ceremony was taking place in the C of E St George's Chapel. Plus, our Monarch is the head of the Church of England. Harry's wife of course, went completely against her orders and Royal Protocol which is no surprise. As we are all aware now nobody tells this narcissist what she can and can't do, even our beloved Queen. "What Meghan wants, Meghan gets." As stated by Harry. This is why, quite rightly, the Queen's expression was one of utter disdain and disapproval. Harry's wife had no intention of becoming a working Royal from the start and I'm pretty sure our Queen knew it. She married Harry purely for the money, status and the title. Thanks again, Beebs. 🇬🇧
She shouldn't have worn white because she had already been married at least once before. A blush pink would've been better, and in a less heavy fabric. It's like a stylist says, "This would be a better choice.", and Meghan disagrees because it's not her choice.
In fairness most royal brides have a hugely long train. Those Cathedrals and Abbeys are big places to fill. As beautiful as a small train would be it would get lost in such vast spaces.
I agree. It was a pity her wedding was in the middle of the pandemic & therefore her wedding was quite small. I would have loved to see her in that dress at Windsor - wow!
I heard the Queen didn’t want Meghan to have a veil with all the flowers of the Commonwealth. Perhaps she sensed the marriage wouldn’t last, so suggesting a commitment to the Commonwealth was insincere. (!) The Queen’s Coronation dress had the flowers of the Commonwealth, so knowing Meghan, the move could’ve been a type of character acquisition.
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark is stunning. She and her husband, Crown Prince Frederik have the most romantic, fairy tale love story in modern times. Look them up. The speech he gave at their wedding was perfection as was her speech for his 50th birthday! I love them.
I was not into fashion at the time of the wedding nor into news about the RF at all. In fact, I was delighted to see that Harry had found his bride. A beautiful woman, so I thought. With enough money and fame on her own, so I thought. Enough to marry for love, so I thought. Yes, I was wrong. But I remember clearly the moment she got out of the car and my disappointment about her appearance. I couldn't tell at the time what it was. But I was totally underwhelmed by the look.
I felt the same way, as soon as she stepped out of the car I think I said to myself Oh is that it what a boring looking dress and why is it in white as she’s a divorced woman 🤦♀️
I think it was inspired by Angela’s dress and something the Meg thought Carolyn Besset Kennedy “might” have worn. I think the designers were tired of Megs diva attitude and changing the dress constantly and let her go as is, a bit unfinished!! Good for them!! Oh wow, I love Princess Mary’s dress. It’s lovely.
Totally agree Nikola Peltz's shoes were bizarre. Margaret 's dress was fairy tale princess..poofy, white, gorgeous. (The tiara was absolutely gorgeous as well.)❤
Hi Beebs! I wondered if you could address the often overlooked fact that she had the flowers of every member of the Commonwealth embroidered into her veil as a sign of her commitment to her new role as Queens representative (I forget the actual title she was given!). I saw in the same documentary shortly after her marriage when she also told the presenter that a small piece of fabric from the blue dress she wore on her first date with Harry was hidden in the dress, but didn't HE say in Spare that she wore jeans...?
Yes she said she wore a blue dress, but he said in spare she wore a black sweater and jeans. I too want to hear more about the choice of the veil and the commonwealth tributes, since she smeared them all so shortly after this.
When I first saw Meghan's wedding dress I was totally shocked because to me, I saw - nothing. Maybe it's the fault of the bad fit, but it just looked like a piece of white cloth with no feature on it at all. As TV commentators were saying that it was iconic I just couldn't believe it. It reminded me of the emperor's new clothes. There was just nothing to say, because there was nothing there. I think the dress was too severe to be fixed up with lace. It would have looked too incongruous.
The wearing of white and a veil wasn't just about church traditions but a lack of acknowledgement that it wasn't her first marriage. Trevor Engleston must have felt erased.
It's not the veil. It's the blusher over the face that counts. That signify furst time marriage which of course it wasn't. Maybe harry should have had the chance to wesr a blusher over his face. It was his first wedding.
Coming out of the church her smug look just makes me think of Ursula in The Little Mermaid ('89 version). I agree with the comment about her never going for lace. Her style is much more masculine than Catherine's. You even see it in their day wear. Possibly some embroidery?
When Meghan stepped out of the car and stood up, when we got our first look at the gown, my immediate reaction was, "It doesn't fit. Why is it bunchy in the middle? Is it supposed to look like that?" I dont hate the gown. it's actually rather elegant. But it looked way better displayed on a mannequin after the wedding than it ever looked on her.
I think I read or heard somewhere that bare shoulders were not allowed and the Queen hadn't seen this dress, and that it hadn't been approved. For someone who cares about appearances so much, she really doesn't know what suits her or listen to people who dress her. I have yet to see her in something that is a really good fit for her, unlike the Princess of Wales.
As a Dutch-born person I must correct you. Princess Margriet was not a crown princess of the Netherlands. She was the third daughter of Queen Juliana. Beatrix was the Crown Princess. However, the princess has an interesting history. She was born in Canada, my adopted country. In order to be born as a Dutch national the hospital denationalized the wing in which she was born. I enjoy your videos a great deal.
I don’t understand, wouldn’t she have been born a Dutch national because of her parents being Dutch? Why make mini Netherlands in a Canadian hospital? Was it to avoid being a dual national, Dutch and Canadian?
Yes this is very odd. The child becomes the nationality of the parent and this is based on legal conscripts. However, this may be considered like an embassy where the embassy itself is considered part of the nation it belongs too as opposed to being land belonging to the actual nation it sits in. So if you are born in the entryway of the Canadian embassy in Net York you were born on Canadian soil. If you are born on the sidewalk outside the gate you are possibly given American citizenship because you were born here. Depends on what the parents want. Some will accept the dual citizenship of American /Canadian by the parent and place born and others who have no use for the dual citizenship will just go Canadian.
@@wolfhound1452 I don’t know about the time when she was born specifically, but now dual citizenship is possible. But only if the child has/ had Dutch father married to birth mother, then child would be Dutch by blood, and Canadian by place. Which is what I was asking, did the royals want only Dutch citizenship thereby omitting the location of Canada?
@@MK-cc5veDon'r know about this specific case, but typically roayls don't have dual citizenship so there would be no doubt about their allegiance. That's changing somewhat for the lesser royals, esp the ones who isn't part of the working royals.
Crown Princess Mary looked regal. The fabric is lucious. I love her dress, her carriage, her meaningful details in remembrance of her mother and her stunning fugure. She looks like a future queen without looking smug.
For me, the only improvement for that dress would have been a lit match. Seriously, i used to sell bridal gowns, & this one was the most underwhelming gown I've ever seen. Was incredibly matronly looking. It was just another example of how Meghan shops for the designer label rather than the actual design & how it suits her own body type. Was she trying to look like an old maid here? The veil looked like something from a comedy show... the never-ending veil. SNL lost their chance for a parody on that.
The biggest change to fix this dress would be the person wearing it. Someone who cared about tradition and the royal family would help! Someone who would listen to a stylist that understood the world stage not to mention a hair stylist would have fixed that mess of a hairstyle!
What do people think about MMs bouquet? It doesn’t get mentioned but I think it was too small and insignificant for a grand royal wedding. She looked awkward carrying it and held it like a coffee mug in some pictures. If the shape is right, the bouquet completes the bride’s look. A bigger traditional bouquet could have enhanced and softened the awful stiff plainness of her dress - as seen with some of the other royal bouquets. Nor should MM have held it pointing downward with her long arm extended as she did some of the time. It seemed to be nothing but an annoyance rather than part of the show.
Victoria's dress was MILES above that absolute disaster that Me-gain wore, (especially the way the veil on Victoria's blended). Out of the 4 alternate dresses, I loved #1, (but in cream). Everything about the plain, heavy, ill fitted, blinding white wrinkled satin she actually wore was embarrassing. Mary's dress was lovely. The cut, flow, & overall shilloutte would have helped Me-gain tremendously. There was no saving that nightmare she wore, it was hideous. Princes Margaret was elegant & stunning! I loved this video, thanks Honey! 💖
I think Megs wedding dress designer said they had told her the dress she picked was not right for her. They had several dresses they had worked on with her and last minute she chose this dress. It explains the ill fit she so much gravitates to.
CP Victoria's wedding dress is one of my all time favorites. She absolutely radiated. The fact that she's also in great shape definitely made the dress look so glamorous and beautiful on her as well. Her smile as she walked down the aisle was fabulous - she was so happy and I love that she nodded to and acknowledged her guests. I also love CP Mary and her wedding dress was quite unique but also very edgy. Her style is pretty edgy in general-she has great taste and always looks fabulous. She plays with color alot especially with her shoes. 👑👑
The fabric of the dress looked heavy and thick for the season. Perhaps if the wedding had been held in December or January, the dress would have looked more suitable. I heard that the two things that Queen Elizabeth II could not understand was the actress wearing a veil and the dress being stark white. I heard a rumor recently that I was not familiar with that the wedding dress she showed the Queen for approval to wear at the wedding was a different dress from the one she actually wore. Perhaps that is why, in the favorite wedding photo of the Queen, she seems to be glaring at the actress during the ceremony. Also, I thought the veil looked too thin and fragile to go with the heavy material of the dress.
As a narcissist, MM doesn't have the slightest idea of who she is. She married primarily out of ambition, as she has shown the entire world ever since. In these conditions, how could she have imagined, with the help of a team, THE dress that would celebrate this special day? IMO the disproportion of the veil speaks volume on this subject. The veil seems completely foreign to the dress, just as love is totally absent from MM's abilities. For her it was only a question of appearance, money and ambition. It was necessary to show the world that she was superior to all the other brides in the RF. Moreover, MM also picked up something from Princess Diana's very long veil. Princess Diana's train and veil were the longest ever worn by a bride in the RF and measured 8 meters long. MM's veil measured 5 meters which makes no sense. Princess Catherine's train measured 2.5 meters and her sublime veil was short. With all her narcissistic priorities, MM could not be well dressed, not even on her wedding day.
Megs wedding dress for this event should just never have happened IMO. Divorced and close to middle aged? And I'm being very kind about her past activities. No wonder HMTQ gave her 'the look' 😉
The late Princess Margaret was such a beautiful woman and an absolutely gorgeous bride, I was in a shop when this came on their TV set in the corner and even the men were making complementary comments on how stunning she looked and that's saying a lot for the men in those days! Though the picture was very grainy she made a very favourable impression.
This was such an in depth analysis, thanks for taking the time! Princess Margaret's dress was a good one to finish on, because it seems like that dress has the iconic simplicity that Meghan was going for but didn't achieve. I don't blame Meghan for avoiding lace, as Catherine had done that to perfection. But she did miss the mark completely with that dress!
Love love loved Princess Mary’s wedding dress. It’s timeless modern medieval. I removed the day of her wedding well, and studying her dress in all of it’s glorious detail. The hair and veil were majestic too. 🇦🇺 👸 🇩🇰
Margaret's dress is my favorite. Would still be fashionable today. Nicola Peltz's wedding shoes are horrible (she gives me narc vibes too). I wonder why Crown Princess Mary went with an off-white dress?
I remember Princess Margararet's wedding and we 'all loved the dress but I liked Princess Anne's dress even more _ those !lovely medieval sleeves perfection.!
i was 13 when Princess Margaret was married and have loved that gown since then. i remember cutting pictures of it from magazines and taping them to my closet door. it is a forever dress.
Another great show - thanks Beebs! Princess Margaret's daughter, Sarah Chatto, wore a wedding dress inspired by her mother's dress, and I think it's a beauty. Well worth reviewing. Also I would love to hear more about Norman Hartnell, his style and influence on fashion. Some of his later designs look fusty but it would be fascinating to see his earlier designs which made a huge impact on women's fashion. Talking about fashion; any thoughts on reviewing the insanely wonderful world of Elsa Schiaparelli ? Love your show. Please keep up the good work!
I’ve ALWAYS thought Princess Margaret’s wedding dress was the most stunning of all. And that tiara was amazing! TBH, it’s what I was expecting MM to wear, and then she came out in the wrinkly, unfitted wedding dress and messy hair with a dinky tiara, and I was pretty shocked, and not in a good way.
Princess Margaret's tiara was fabulous... I feel as it was taller than average it may have been worn to give her a little extra height too. Her daughter-in-law, Serena Stanhope wore her hair in a similar arrangement which added height, and the top of her gown was very similar to Margaret's..
Should not wear pure white to second or third wedding. Her veil was rediculous. She insisted on a huge wedding but after she said it was what the people wanted but not her as she married Harry three days before. 🤔🤔🤔
Meghan could’ve chosen to wear a platinum Duchesse satin gown. We know she loves to stand out to the point of being inappropriate and that she considers herself to be a Fashion Icon. Wearing platinum satin could’ve started a new trend! It probably would’ve looked better on her too.
And an over-the-top veil to signify her purity and modesty? 🤭😂🤣A cowl neck or drapey fabric WITH the awful, scruffy hair strands would've looked even more like she'd just dragged herself in from an all-nighter. ew. Thanks, Beebs, great video!

Hey, can you please make a segment on Royal Engagement Rings?

Her 💍ring is a STUNNER!!
Thank you,

When you have a simple dress, it MUST have a perfect fit. Meg’s fit was dreadful.
And we know why. She changed everything at the last minute. Again, it's on her. I don't understand someone making so many horrible decisions around this area of her life!! By changing at the end, her wedding dress for British Royalty was equilvalent to buying a dress off the rack.
I agree & I thought her dress was the MOST BORING royal wedding dress in history… and that was the beginning of my dislike…. 💕🇦🇺💃
I know it looked like she'd just picked it up without trying it on.
Unfinished and used

I was a bit sad while watching the wedding, my Mom was about a year into early onset Alzheimer's, and we were going to watch together. I did end up watching twice, once Mom was able, so my memories are all mixed with emotions. I thought I liked the wedding. Not sure now.
I'm suprised that meg didn't push the sleeves up on her wedding dress, she does with everything else she wears
😂😂😂
😂 when she does it with trench coats 😂
And the piece of string around her waist
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣good one.
Since she was married before, she should have not had a church wedding. The British people would have respected her more. Her gown should have been off white or champagne. A cowl neckline would have been good. A humbler approach would have been better. I know royal weddings are grand, but this was a second marriage.
I think people supported the Queen's disapproval of the dress being white.
I agree, and I think she wore white and a veil because she knew it would upset our lovely queen ,
Yes, if the future King and Queen had a low key wedding with Camilla wearing a pearl grey outfit (which looked 100 times better than MM anyway!!) Then MM as a divorcee, should have had the same.... she must have pulled some slippery stunts to get her way, maybe that's why there was so much dress changes and it was a rush job at the end!?? We all know it was more a 'net-working' session more than it was ever a wedding for old MM
Queen Elizabeth’s face at the wedding shows she knew what a nightmare was coming.😂😂😂
I gasped when I saw it. It was more white than Catherine's. It was blue white. I thought she might choose eggshell, but not that.😳
@lynettefinnigan9540 Camilla wore cream (looked white to me) to the civil marriage and pale blue and gold to the church blessing (no actual church wedding for the divorcees). Both dress looked beautiful and were very flattering for her figure. Queen Elizabeth also wore a cream outfit for the days events.
I heard that the Queen commented that she couldn't understand why Meghan even needed a veil in the first place. Oooohh BURN. 😂
And I agree. Camilla, now Queen smashed it with her Gold Wedding Dress and feathers. She looked amazing as an older lady with a little fuller than younger figure.
Yes, that outfit was wonderful on her
I agree Queen Camilla looked stunning on her wedding day. Loved her dress and the feathers were a wonderful touch.
Camilla’s dress was unique and beautiful for a second wedding. She really showcased how it’s done.
I loved what Queen Camilla wore to marry Charles. Her headpiece was unique, just perfect. ❤
To me the facial expressions of all the brides was happiness. But Megan's expression looked to me, cunning & glee that she had gotten something over on everyone. It stood out to me.
Exactly! She looked like the cat that caught the canary
I was just thinking the same thing!
Yes! The duper's delight look!
exactly...
Yes! She looked just like the character Duckface in 4 weddings and a funeral, pure triumph.
I think Meg thinks she can do simple elegance like Audrey Hepburn. She cannot.
Angela's dress fit and was appropriate as she had never been married.
A self professed globe trotting, experienced divorcee playing at the virginal ingenue is an absurd image.
I just read that Angela designed the dress herself. She did a great job and it really suited her
The more i see Meghalodon’s dress, especially in comparison to other dresses, the worse it looks.
What a disaster.
....b.c. she would NOT LISTEN to the excellent Royal Advice offered to HELP her OPPOSITION IS HER MIDDLE NAME. And her own family confirm the woman has been like it ever since a very spoilt childhood indeed.
The more mindless bashing I see of someone you have never met, for no good reason, is disturbing.
@@loosilu oh there’s good reason, that’s where you’re wrong
@@hsmd4533 What is that? She was rude to her inlaws? And for that she is treated like a serial killer. Do you understand how crazy that looks?
@@loosilu She’s rude to everyone, not just her in-laws.
She uses people including victims of tragedies and her own family.
She’s obscenely greedy and she’s a liar.
She’s selfish, self-centered, narcissistic and sociopathic.
And she’s treated very well actually.
Nice try.
Harry’s Wife’s wedding bouquet was too small, & the neckline looks wonky. The fabric was way too stiff & blindingly white. Nothing interesting or special about it, not even the bride who wore it
One of the bridesmaids was missing her bouquet. The florist has a story about incorporating fresh flowers from Kensington palace gardens.. That didn’t go well I believe 😮
Did you like Catherine’s bouquet?
I’m surprised that harry’s wife didn’t scrunch up the sleeves over her elbows.
lol that was my first thought, and then 'why such a long veil?' There was absolutely no need for that, still puzzling over that
Queen Elizabeth did not want her to wear a white dress and veil, as she was a divorcee, so the btch wore white with a long veil to spite our Queen!!
I will put my hands up and admit that I was kind of pleased that Meghan’s wedding look was a fail. I didn’t want to like what she wore and she delivered.
Yuck...and that **HAIR**. Can some one...any one donate a BRUSH
I was looking forward to seeing the gown, because, like most people, I assumed it would be appropriate for her age and status as a divorced woman. I thought she would have a chance to really choose something different and unique, mature but glamorous. When Princess Catherine stepped out of the car on her wedding day to Prince William, I literally sighed and said, "Perfect". I *love* the ensemble she chose. However, when M stepped out of the car, I deflated, shook my head, and said, "Meh." Then I got a gander at the whole ensemble, include coiffure, and said, "This is a disaster". Oh well, I guess she started as she's continuing.
She'll never let you down!!!
Meghan Markle's wedding dress was just poorly fitted. It also looked as though it wasn't properly pressed. And Princess Angela's dress--though similarly simple--was made of a more appropriate fabric.
I think because the dress was not approved by the Queen, so MM had an approved dress made for the Queen to see, then last minute rush to finish the other one, so she could 'once again' be rude to the Queen and wear it anyway!!
Her wedding was not romantic. Sorry to be crude but it was a business deal and a networking opportunity.
Watching the wedding in 2018, I recall my thoughts:
-how sweet for Prince Charles to walk her down the aisle
- how lonely and forlorn her mother appeared
- how amazing was the music
- and WHY in the world did she wear her hair like that?!?! It looked like she did it herself. The center part was jarring.
She wants to walk all the way on her own but was told no by the Queen hence Charles did the second half
The dress she wore was not the dress approved by the Queen.
She started right at the beginning to do things opposite to what was expected.
Right down to getting in a car first, nearly having to push the Queen out the way to get in first.
She is a despicable human being

... and did you see the vile look on her face when little Charlotte looked at her while passing her with the other flower girls ... bridezilla grinned at all the other flower girls and pages, except for Charlotte ... that says so much about her personality and maturity, and probably so much more than that. It was sickening, and very possibly noticed by the senior royals who were sitting close by.
Too bad she showed up...
@@bluemoon5662yes, That Look!! Poor little 3yr old Charlotte was terrified of her... and refusing the girls to wear socks or stocking.. MM knew they'd all get blistered feet, the Witch!! (And you see poor Charlotte pulling at her foot when she's with mummy later, I bet she had nasty blisters in new shoes and no protection of sock or stocking!!! 😢😢
I cannot believe meghans dress costs so much and yet it looks so cheap and ill fitting like she's just picked it off the shelf.
M’s dress seemed so stiff, it looked as though she could have stepped out of it, and it would have stood perfectly by itself!
I was a custom dressmaker for years. I don’t think a boatneck is suitable for a wedding gown, it’s a casual shape.
I loved Crown Princess Mary's wedding dress, it's my all time favourite.
I think the dress maker was desperately trying to give meg a waistline and failed bc meg wasn’t willing to compromise
Maybe she forgot to take off the moonbump during the last fitting 🤡🤡🤡
As I watched this, I suddenly realized what my take on MM’s dress really is: it’s utilitarian. She’s just getting the job done so that she can get on with what she’s really after: fame and fortune.
It fits with her whole style approach: "minimalist", monochrome, poorly fitted as if it was ordered at the last minute and there was no time for alterations. Boring pieces with extravagant or costly accessories matched tastelessly.
I had a very simple backyard wedding but the one thing I really wanted was a pretty dress so i had that. Later in the evening, one of the neighbor guests suggested I go change and I said no way am I taking this dress off.
Meghan’s veil was a DISASTER!!!
Matched her dress
It was longer than the Queen had, and she copied the commonwealth flowers theme. Does she ever have an original thought?
@@m.m.9684yes..all the flowers of Commonwealth countries, and added Californian poppies...was her idea back then that royalty could be blended in to America and she could go back home an be Queen??? I sometimes wonder how her twisted mind works, and nothing would suprise me!!!
@@m.m.9684--After the late Queen died in 2022, I binge watched documentaries about her. One of the interesting ones was about the Jubilee and up pops the Wife (😱) talking about her wedding dress and going on and on about the ‘original veil with Commonwealth flowers embroidered along the edge. I was furious because I’d just watched ‘A Majestic Life’ about Elizabeth II’s wedding and HER VEIL. The interviewer didn’t say anything BUT, a black and white cut in video with the narration of Elizabeth II’s dress, veil and the ‘original’ embroidered Commonwealth flowers😆began, and I got over my mad😉
.....yes it was.........it didn't cover-up her horrible plastic face completely.
I really liked the fact that Mary chose a Danish designer. That's a show of respect. MM didn't do that, which says a lot.
I also loved the little stories behind the design.
But every story, MM has stolen a bit of their story...MM tells the story that she had a bit of the blue material from her first date with Harry. (However he remembered she wore a black top and jeans😂😂😂😂) the flowers like the Queen embroidered on her veil, adding Californian Poppies (even though they're not part of the Commonwealth) and I still think she researched that black woman who married in and used that dress look....copy, copy, copy....its all she can do, no style, no fashion sense....
Mary has gone above and beyond to fit into the Danish Royal Family and Denmark. She understood and went with the expectations.
@@lisalaunius7389 Yes, I agree with you…Mary has embraced her role with dignity and respect.♥️
I think she deliberately did not choose a British designer - I mean she wanted anything but that. Remember when she crashed an awards show for British fashion and wore a French designer. WOW.
The split screens showing MMs wedding dress next to some of the other dresses with similar styles just accentuates how bad MMs looks in comparison.
Totally, I thought the same thing. What a mess she was.
I think she wore that bright white dress to make her skin appear darker. I think all along she was going to play the racism victim card. God, her hair was freaking disaster too and she could have been so stunning.
this i9s nthe most bonkers criticism I've heard yet. There is something wrong with you.
Mary is an example of what to do RIGHT when you're a commoner marrying into an old (oldest ) RF. She learnt another language and worked so hard to become a part of her new family and country . Her wedding dress was designed by someone from her new country and everything felt "real" and heartfelt . Also her bouquet was gorgeous . We're so proud of her here in Oz💛.
Absolutely!! And she made 2 countries proud, her new country and her birth country.... whereas MM has managed to have both countries pissed off at her
@@lynettefinnigan9540 😂👏
So you should be!
Yes, she has elegance and style. A class act and a great ambassador for Denmark and Australia 🇦🇺.
Is learning the language of the country you gonna live the rest of your life in really sucb a big deal..., I would considere that an absolute minimum. It's strange though that she dkesn't seem to have raised her children bilingual, thry sound very Danish when they speak English.
I was bothered by the stark white AND veil considering that this was her 2nd/3rd wedding. The dress she chose was stark, poorly fitted and the veil was overkill...
Brides wear veils regardless. The thing is to not wear a blusher over the face if it's not your furst wedding. It used to signify that you were a virgin. Catherine probably wasn't a virgin but that was her first wedding. Plus the catherdral may have rules, too.
This is just absurd slut shaming. What are you, 80 years old?
@@loristoneking5711
Cathering, who caught Will's attention by parading around on a stage with barely any clothes on, lived with Will before the wedding. She is no virgin and should have worn red, byh your logic. But as we all know, she is now Saint Kate and can do no wrong, whlie Meghan, who literally committed no crime whatsoever, can do no right.
@@loosilucatherine was devoted to William even back in their college days. Catherine was modeling an outfit for a fundraiser in college. It was a sheer slip over a bathing suit because it was a college modeling project.. Meghan is just a garbage human being all around. Not sure she has any redeeming qualities.
@@loosilu😅
Princess Mary's dress was truly a fairytale
In my humble opinion, no dress would have done, she should not have married harry in the first place.
I loved Princess Beatrice’s wedding dress which was a vintage Hartnell dress her grandmother wore in the 1960’s, slightly altered. Angela Kelly - the Queens dresser at the time added short sleeves and length. Beatrice also wore the Fringe tiara worn by her Grandmother and mother. MM looked terrible on her wedding day. The ridiculous long veil, frumpy dress and “tiaragate” made it difficult to admire. Rather than have all the flowers if the commonwealth countries embroidered down the sides, she should have had the dollar and pound signs along with “MEEEEE” embroidered there instead.
The Fringe tiara is quite beautiful. Beatrice's mother, Sarah, wore an equally beautiful tiara; one that was gifted to her. Sadly, it wasn't the Fringe.
Dollar signs, indeed.😂 I will quote what my late mother would say about her. " She should sing in an opera since all you hear from her is ME-ME-ME." As an American, I was embarrassed by her lack if style. Or lack of.
I was confused on the day they announced their engagement in the garden in that white belted coat with the uneven hem. Since then we have suffered her poor choices.
the nude top 75 k engagement dress
Oh!!! That too!!! I can't imagine what the Queen had thought of that!@@KeiPalace
To me, it appeared that Meghans dress was wearing her rather than her wearing the dress. The veil was just hanging out there and was trying to get away.
Now we know how difficult meg can be, I believe it could be possible that the dress maker gave up and just let her wear an unfinished sample. How did she get it so wrong, because the dress certainly didn't look right for a ceremony that cost us £32m!
I wish the designer would speak out.
@@hsmd4533it would end highend clientele though...
Can you imagine the whining....but she must have had a couple of dresses on the go (MMs usual game of smoke and mirrors) and put this one on (maybe not quite completed) because we all know the Queen did not approve a white dress for a divorcee, not even for her own sons second wedding...
Yep. Looks unfinished. A sample that is a starting point.
Do we? Oh right, because the Daily Mail, the source of Meg stories, told you. The DM is so racist, they endorsed Hitler back in the day.
Like most people I loved Catherine's dress, but as well as Princess Margaret and the Duchess of Kent"s dresses my other favourite was Lady Sarah Chatto's dress (exquisite simplicity). Also her bridesmaids looked beautiful as well.
Lady Sarah,s entire wedding party looked amazing. I think it's my favourite and she looked so damn happy.
Lady Sarah Chatto is always impeccable. Her clothes are perfectly fitted & she just oozes elegance, imo
I saw many of the royal weddings in the early 1969’s. I was very young and I loved reading all about them and watching on tv. Everyone I knew and the press seemed to love Princess Margaret’s dress and her amazing tiara. I was the same age, around 11, and shape as Princess Anne and I was really disappointed in the dress she wore as bridesmaid. The style looked good on the little bridesmaids but didn’t suit Anne. I thought Princess Margaret was a bit mean making Anne wear it.
I had to look for pictures of this one. You're right, it's gorgeous.
Megan should not have been wearing white as a divorcee. She should not been allowed to spend all that money!
I know she's not officially a Royal but Pippa Middletons wedding dress is my all time fave. Ahhh she looked like a modern day Grace Kelly. I could look at wedding dresses all day.
Pippa Middleton had a lovely wedding dress.
I loved the back cutout, it totally suited her & was perfect
If I were Pippa, I would’ve worn that awesome bridesmaid dress for my wedding. She rocked it, it deserved an encore.
@@spiritmatter1553 haha yes, it would have saved them a fortune too! I’m sure they wanted their own day without it always being reported on a Catherine’s bridesmaids dress. Would have been hilarious if she would have changed into it for the evening 🤣🤣, she might have!
Pippas dress was pretty and fit her figure. Pippa is athletic and has great posture and a long torso- unlike meghan. However I thought it was a severe style. The lace overlay was serious and very edgy with the scalloping on the lace the designer commented that the design was edgy anyway, Meghans too laid back for that and wouldn't be able to carry thst off
.
I've come to the conclusion that Meghan is absolutely crazy. I don't even think mental help will make a difference for her.
😂nutz😂
That's your professional diagnosis, huh? Based on whta, your daily consumption of videos that bash her for literally every tiny thing?

I know this sounds ridiculous but many people still associate white with virginity/ purity. At the very least a first marriage for the bride. Memee was 36 years old, had cheated on her boyfriend Corey Vitiello who she stalked IMO, and sent her engagement and wedding ring back to her husband in the mail. So much class all around. The look on H.M. Queen Elizabeth II's face was priceless, it was her grumpy " I am not amused " face. And what was going on with her hair? She had a hairdresser do that for her? It was a mess and disrespectful to the setting and occasion. Dear God I have turned into my mother.
Isn't that so weird - what we never imagined might happen!
Yeah, but mother knows best.
White is still associated with virginity .
You know, at the heart of the wedding dress color issue is the matter of respect. Respect for the family's beliefs, the thousand year heritage, the church she was marrying in, and for the matriarch and patriarch of the family. She showed none in her choice of attire. When King Charles and Queen Camilla married, they did so at the town hall, then went on to have a blessing in church. They were respectful in their marriage and their blessing, down to Camilla wearing two *very* lovely ensembles which did *not* consist of pure white. That is the difference, and that is why, imho, so many people were put off by M's choices. Pure white, a very long veil (shouldn't have been wearing one), messy hair, badly tailored dress, no stockings on the bridesmaids...it was precisely the *opposite* of what that particular royal wedding should've been.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
No other wedding dress looked as bad as the megs
In defense of Princess Anne’s dress. That medieval Juliet dress was absolutely on point for the time! Think the Camelot movie and Franco Zeffirelli’s Romeo and Juliet. Notice her only flower girl Lady Sarah Armstrong Jones is wearing a Juliet cap on her head. Huge in the 70’s!
No defence needed, she looked magnificent.
I can't imagine what the critique would have been if I had needed a big-whoop-dee-doo public spectacle of a wedding dress, and went with an adaptation of one of my favorite dresses from film: the dress Hannah Gordon wears as Mrs. Treves in "The Elephant Man", when she hosts Mr. Merrick for tea. The first time I saw that film, as Ms. Gordon made her entrance in that dress, coming down some stairs, I thought: "I want one of those!" The dresses from the near-end of the Victorian era -- after hoops disappeared, when bustles were diminishing, and before ladies's sleeves started looking like hot air balloons -- are so trim and embellished that they just seem like extremely fertile ground for wedding dress inspiration.
I loved Princess Anne’s dress. It was definitely on point for that time.
To get the full effect of Princess Mary’s dress you have to see her walking in it; the skirt panels then flow beautifully with her motion. There are videos on TH-cam of her walking down the aisle and it’s the most romantic thing ever; Frederik teared up at the sight of her.
Let's not forget..Meghan knows best on all things & what Meghan wants, Meghan gets🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
Well, she got the disaster she was going for.
Not so much any more. The what meghan gets thing is losing its potency. Plus harry was childish saying that comment. I'll bet he regrets saying thst now.
Princess Mary of Denmarks dress is stunning!! It almost looks medieval😍
Thanks Beebs for yet another brilliant video. It has been reported that Harry's wife was told by the Queen on no account was she to wear a white wedding dress as it would be totally unacceptable as she had previously been divorced and the ceremony was taking place in the C of E St George's Chapel. Plus, our Monarch is the head of the Church of England. Harry's wife of course, went completely against her orders and Royal Protocol which is no surprise. As we are all aware now nobody tells this narcissist what she can and can't do, even our beloved Queen.
"What Meghan wants, Meghan gets." As stated by Harry.
This is why, quite rightly, the Queen's expression was one of utter disdain and disapproval. Harry's wife had no intention of becoming a working Royal from the start and I'm pretty sure our Queen knew it. She married Harry purely for the money, status and the title. Thanks again, Beebs. 🇬🇧
Perfectly said thank you!
She shouldn't have worn white because she had already been married at least once before. A blush pink would've been better, and in a less heavy fabric. It's like a stylist says, "This would be a better choice.", and Meghan disagrees because it's not her choice.
Agreed!!!
Princess Anne’s first wedding dress was gorgeous, a very medieval look & she looked absolutely beautiful xxxx
I absolutely agree. She is not a beautiful woman but she looked wonderful in that dress. It was perfect for her.
loved those sleeves!
@@christianadechaeney1831 Actually she was very beautiful in her youth.
Oh, who else had a long train on their wedding gown? That's right, Princess Diana! Meghan cosplaying Harry's Mother. Again. Smdh.
In fairness most royal brides have a hugely long train. Those Cathedrals and Abbeys are big places to fill. As beautiful as a small train would be it would get lost in such vast spaces.
She should have worn off-white, at the very least. I'm no fan of Camilla but she set the standard for second wedding dresses.
My fav dress was Princess Beatrice. The alterations were lovely… the vast majority of royal brides have sleeves. So elegant.
Agree, she looked fabulous and the nostalgia of wearing the queen’s dress was so cool.
Yes!!! 😍
I agree. It was a pity her wedding was in the middle of the pandemic & therefore her wedding was quite small. I would have loved to see her in that dress at Windsor - wow!
I heard the Queen didn’t want Meghan to have a veil with all the flowers of the Commonwealth. Perhaps she sensed the marriage wouldn’t last, so suggesting a commitment to the Commonwealth was insincere. (!) The Queen’s Coronation dress had the flowers of the Commonwealth, so knowing Meghan, the move could’ve been a type of character acquisition.
Apparently the Queen had oked a dress but she turned up in that, id love to know what it was
I read that too. The Queen had approved a completely different dress, then Meghan showed up in this virginal white number...
I would so love to know this story!
Crown Princess Mary of Denmark is stunning. She and her husband, Crown Prince Frederik have the most romantic, fairy tale love story in modern times. Look them up. The speech he gave at their wedding was perfection as was her speech for his 50th birthday! I love them.
Me too! I can’t get enough of them!
I love love love Princess Mary! She’s like Catherine - dignified, humble, almost never puts a foot wrong.
Love her and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands
I thought that Megan was wearing the lining of a wedding dress because of the ill fit.
That’s it exactly! It looks like the dress lining. So boring & disappointing, but that’s her to a tee , I suppose….
Agree 100%! I thought the same thing.😊
A harsh dress for a harsh person.
I was not into fashion at the time of the wedding nor into news about the RF at all. In fact, I was delighted to see that Harry had found his bride. A beautiful woman, so I thought. With enough money and fame on her own, so I thought. Enough to marry for love, so I thought. Yes, I was wrong. But I remember clearly the moment she got out of the car and my disappointment about her appearance. I couldn't tell at the time what it was. But I was totally underwhelmed by the look.
You have expressed beautifully exactly how I felt as well.
Everyone wanted so badly to like her.
And here we are.
Exactly how I felt as well.
I felt the same way, as soon as she stepped out of the car I think I said to myself Oh is that it what a boring looking dress and why is it in white as she’s a divorced woman 🤦♀️
The Queens face said it all.
yes! I thought ... that's it?
I honestly can't decide if it's MMs dress I hate or if it's the snotty look she has on her face....
In a way the harsh, stiff wedding dress fits MM personality perfectly.
I felt megs dress wore her. It was bright white, stiff, ill-fitting and the veil was way too long. And that weird neckline! Nothing seemed right.
I remember tuning in to the wedding on TV, seeing the dress and thinking, oh is that it? Then I switched the TV off.
I think it was inspired by Angela’s dress and something the Meg thought Carolyn Besset Kennedy “might” have worn.
I think the designers were tired of Megs diva attitude and changing the dress constantly and let her go as is, a bit unfinished!! Good for them!!
Oh wow, I love Princess Mary’s dress. It’s lovely.
Totally agree Nikola Peltz's shoes were bizarre. Margaret 's dress was fairy tale princess..poofy, white, gorgeous. (The tiara was absolutely gorgeous as well.)❤
Yes, they look ridiculous.
Not only the shoes but she didn't have her roots done!.
Hi Beebs!
I wondered if you could address the often overlooked fact that she had the flowers of every member of the Commonwealth embroidered into her veil as a sign of her commitment to her new role as Queens representative (I forget the actual title she was given!). I saw in the same documentary shortly after her marriage when she also told the presenter that a small piece of fabric from the blue dress she wore on her first date with Harry was hidden in the dress, but didn't HE say in Spare that she wore jeans...?
Jeans are usually blue, aren't they😉
Yes she said she wore a blue dress, but he said in spare she wore a black sweater and jeans. I too want to hear more about the choice of the veil and the commonwealth tributes, since she smeared them all so shortly after this.
As a Canadian I’d like to know which is our national flower. Is it this 🍁? Lol
Let’s face it, she’s just absolute scum, a liar and an absolute mess.
Another example of their stories not matching up. 🙄
When I first saw Meghan's wedding dress I was totally shocked because to me, I saw - nothing. Maybe it's the fault of the bad fit, but it just looked like a piece of white cloth with no feature on it at all. As TV commentators were saying that it was iconic I just couldn't believe it. It reminded me of the emperor's new clothes. There was just nothing to say, because there was nothing there. I think the dress was too severe to be fixed up with lace. It would have looked too incongruous.
I agree. Other than some minor trim maybe. Meghans too laid back for entire lace overlay.
It looked like a draped tablecloth too me
I believe the commentators were told to praise the dress no matter what it looked like. Diplomatic
She should have just worn Black, which is what she's caused us...darkness?🖤🖤🖤
or a great big woollen coat with a tie-belt!!!
The wearing of white and a veil wasn't just about church traditions but a lack of acknowledgement that it wasn't her first marriage. Trevor Engleston must have felt erased.
Slut shaming belongs in the 19th century.
It's not the veil. It's the blusher over the face that counts. That signify furst time marriage which of course it wasn't. Maybe harry should have had the chance to wesr a blusher over his face. It was his first wedding.
@@loristoneking5711 Yes, this is called slut shaming.
He probably celebrated the release 🥂
Coming out of the church her smug look just makes me think of Ursula in The Little Mermaid ('89 version). I agree with the comment about her never going for lace. Her style is much more masculine than Catherine's. You even see it in their day wear. Possibly some embroidery?
When Meghan stepped out of the car and stood up, when we got our first look at the gown, my immediate reaction was, "It doesn't fit. Why is it bunchy in the middle? Is it supposed to look like that?"
I dont hate the gown. it's actually rather elegant. But it looked way better displayed on a mannequin after the wedding than it ever looked on her.
I think I read or heard somewhere that bare shoulders were not allowed and the Queen hadn't seen this dress, and that it hadn't been approved. For someone who cares about appearances so much, she really doesn't know what suits her or listen to people who dress her. I have yet to see her in something that is a really good fit for her, unlike the Princess of Wales.
That glaring white for a start was very offputting
As a Dutch-born person I must correct you. Princess Margriet was not a crown princess of the Netherlands. She was the third daughter of Queen Juliana. Beatrix was the Crown Princess. However, the princess has an interesting history. She was born in Canada, my adopted country. In order to be born as a Dutch national the hospital denationalized the wing in which she was born. I enjoy your videos a great deal.
I don’t understand, wouldn’t she have been born a Dutch national because of her parents being Dutch? Why make mini Netherlands in a Canadian hospital? Was it to avoid being a dual national, Dutch and Canadian?
Yes this is very odd. The child becomes the nationality of the parent and this is based on legal conscripts. However, this may be considered like an embassy where the embassy itself is considered part of the nation it belongs too as opposed to being land belonging to the actual nation it sits in. So if you are born in the entryway of the Canadian embassy in Net York you were born on Canadian soil. If you are born on the sidewalk outside the gate you are possibly given American citizenship because you were born here. Depends on what the parents want. Some will accept the dual citizenship of American /Canadian by the parent and place born and others who have no use for the dual citizenship will just go Canadian.
@@MK-cc5ve Yes. She had to be fully Dutch as the Netherlands did not allow dual citizenship. Therefore, the denationalizing of the hospital wing.
@@wolfhound1452 I don’t know about the time when she was born specifically, but now dual citizenship is possible. But only if the child has/ had Dutch father married to birth mother, then child would be Dutch by blood, and Canadian by place. Which is what I was asking, did the royals want only Dutch citizenship thereby omitting the location of Canada?
@@MK-cc5veDon'r know about this specific case, but typically roayls don't have dual citizenship so there would be no doubt about their allegiance. That's changing somewhat for the lesser royals, esp the ones who isn't part of the working royals.
The whole situation regarding Meghan, was a rushed relationship, standard 6 month engagement, rushed wedding and RUSHED EXIT.
Crown Princess Mary looked regal. The fabric is lucious. I love her dress, her carriage, her meaningful details in remembrance of her mother and her stunning fugure. She looks like a future queen without looking smug.
For me, the only improvement for that dress would have been a lit match. Seriously, i used to sell bridal gowns, & this one was the most underwhelming gown I've ever seen. Was incredibly matronly looking. It was just another example of how Meghan shops for the designer label rather than the actual design & how it suits her own body type. Was she trying to look like an old maid here? The veil looked like something from a comedy show... the never-ending veil. SNL lost their chance for a parody on that.
The biggest change to fix this dress would be the person wearing it. Someone who cared about tradition and the royal family would help! Someone who would listen to a stylist that understood the world stage not to mention a hair stylist would have fixed that mess of a hairstyle!
What do people think about MMs bouquet? It doesn’t get mentioned but I think it was too small and insignificant for a grand royal wedding. She looked awkward carrying it and held it like a coffee mug in some pictures. If the shape is right, the bouquet completes the bride’s look. A bigger traditional bouquet could have enhanced and softened the awful stiff plainness of her dress - as seen with some of the other royal bouquets. Nor should MM have held it pointing downward with her long arm extended as she did some of the time. It seemed to be nothing but an annoyance rather than part of the show.
Victoria's dress was MILES above that absolute disaster that Me-gain wore, (especially the way the veil on Victoria's blended). Out of the 4 alternate dresses, I loved #1, (but in cream). Everything about the plain, heavy, ill fitted, blinding white wrinkled satin she actually wore was embarrassing. Mary's dress was lovely. The cut, flow, & overall shilloutte would have helped Me-gain tremendously. There was no saving that nightmare she wore, it was hideous. Princes Margaret was elegant & stunning! I loved this video, thanks Honey! 💖
I think Megs wedding dress designer said they had told her the dress she picked was not right for her. They had several dresses they had worked on with her and last minute she chose this dress. It explains the ill fit she so much gravitates to.
she just picked the one that was the brightest white, a self own
CP Victoria's wedding dress is one of my all time favorites. She absolutely radiated. The fact that she's also in great shape definitely made the dress look so glamorous and beautiful on her as well. Her smile as she walked down the aisle was fabulous - she was so happy and I love that she nodded to and acknowledged her guests. I also love CP Mary and her wedding dress was quite unique but also very edgy. Her style is pretty edgy in general-she has great taste and always looks fabulous. She plays with color alot especially with her shoes. 👑👑
Same. I absolutely adore it!!!
At the end of the day we all know she went for the exact opposite of suggestions from the Queen and other royal advisors and we saw the result. Tragic
The fabric of the dress looked heavy and thick for the season. Perhaps if the wedding had been held in December or January, the dress would have looked more suitable. I heard that the two things that Queen Elizabeth II could not understand was the actress wearing a veil and the dress being stark white. I heard a rumor recently that I was not familiar with that the wedding dress she showed the Queen for approval to wear at the wedding was a different dress from the one she actually wore. Perhaps that is why, in the favorite wedding photo of the Queen, she seems to be glaring at the actress during the ceremony. Also, I thought the veil looked too thin and fragile to go with the heavy material of the dress.
As a narcissist, MM doesn't have the slightest idea of who she is. She married primarily out of ambition, as she has shown the entire world ever since. In these conditions, how could she have imagined, with the help of a team, THE dress that would celebrate this special day? IMO the disproportion of the veil speaks volume on this subject. The veil seems completely foreign to the dress, just as love is totally absent from MM's abilities. For her it was only a question of appearance, money and ambition. It was necessary to show the world that she was superior to all the other brides in the RF. Moreover, MM also picked up something from Princess Diana's very long veil. Princess Diana's train and veil were the longest ever worn by a bride in the RF and measured 8 meters long. MM's veil measured 5 meters which makes no sense. Princess Catherine's train measured 2.5 meters and her sublime veil was short.
With all her narcissistic priorities, MM could not be well dressed, not even on her wedding day.
Diana was very tall and could pull off a long train and veil without looking ridiculous. MM looked like a garden gnome swamped by the veil and train.
Princess Beatrice wore a gown that belonged to HMTQ - it was beyond gorgeous.
I know what could save Megain's dress! Ditching the ridiculous veil and somebody else in that dress that can fit in better!
Megs wedding dress for this event should just never have happened IMO. Divorced and close to middle aged? And I'm being very kind about her past activities. No wonder HMTQ gave her 'the look' 😉
The late Princess Margaret was such a beautiful woman and an absolutely gorgeous bride, I was in a shop when this came on their TV set in the corner and even the men were making complementary comments on how stunning she looked and that's saying a lot for the men in those days! Though the picture was very grainy she made a very favourable impression.
This was such an in depth analysis, thanks for taking the time! Princess Margaret's dress was a good one to finish on, because it seems like that dress has the iconic simplicity that Meghan was going for but didn't achieve. I don't blame Meghan for avoiding lace, as Catherine had done that to perfection. But she did miss the mark completely with that dress!
Megsie did not have a snowballs chance in hell at that ridiculous wedding. AMAL CLOONEY ROCKED UP IN YELLOW AND BLEW MEGSIE'S DOORS OFF!!!😂😅😊😂❤
Love love loved Princess Mary’s wedding dress. It’s timeless modern medieval. I removed the day of her wedding well, and studying her dress in all of it’s glorious detail. The hair and veil were majestic too.
🇦🇺 👸 🇩🇰
Margaret's dress is my favorite. Would still be fashionable today. Nicola Peltz's wedding shoes are horrible (she gives me narc vibes too). I wonder why Crown Princess Mary went with an off-white dress?
The heirloom lace in the skirt and veil were ivory (or maybe off white from age). White would have clashed
@@Vonononie Yes that was what I read at the time - the colour was to match the antique veil
I absolutely loved the very off-white with her complexion 😊 It looked antique, in a good way!
I remember Princess Margararet's wedding and we 'all loved the dress but I liked Princess Anne's dress even more _ those !lovely medieval sleeves perfection.!
The Scandinavian way is always simplicity.
i was 13 when Princess Margaret was married and have loved that gown since then. i remember cutting pictures of it from magazines and taping them to my closet door. it is a forever dress.
Another great show - thanks Beebs! Princess Margaret's daughter, Sarah Chatto, wore a wedding dress inspired by her mother's dress, and I think it's a beauty. Well worth reviewing. Also I would love to hear more about Norman Hartnell, his style and influence on fashion. Some of his later designs look fusty but it would be fascinating to see his earlier designs which made a huge impact on women's fashion. Talking about fashion; any thoughts on reviewing the insanely wonderful world of Elsa Schiaparelli ? Love your show. Please keep up the good work!
It wouldn't be Meg, if it wasn't a mess.
I’ve ALWAYS thought Princess Margaret’s wedding dress was the most stunning of all. And that tiara was amazing!
TBH, it’s what I was expecting MM to wear, and then she came out in the wrinkly, unfitted wedding dress and messy hair with a dinky tiara, and I was pretty shocked, and not in a good way.
Agree about Princess Margaret 😊
The tiara was the only good thing about that whole shambolic outfit
Princess Margaret's tiara was fabulous... I feel as it was taller than average it may have been worn to give her a little extra height too. Her daughter-in-law, Serena Stanhope wore her hair in a similar arrangement which added height, and the top of her gown was very similar to Margaret's..
Should not wear pure white to second or third wedding. Her veil was rediculous. She insisted on a huge wedding but after she said it was what the people wanted but not her as she married Harry three days before. 🤔🤔🤔
yes please!! more on our late Queen's gowns would be lovely
Mm dress looked like the starter dress on a manniquin.
Meghan could’ve chosen to wear a platinum Duchesse satin gown. We know she loves to stand out to the point of being inappropriate and that she considers herself to be a Fashion Icon. Wearing platinum satin could’ve started a new trend! It probably would’ve looked better on her too.
Wearing white for your third wedding is a sure way to stand out.
Yes, no bride would ever want to stand out. *eye roll*
And an over-the-top veil to signify her purity and modesty? 🤭😂🤣A cowl neck or drapey fabric WITH the awful, scruffy hair strands would've looked even more like she'd just dragged herself in from an all-nighter. ew. Thanks, Beebs, great video!
