  1. Entre le tailleur/pantalon orange et la robe lilas, je ne sais pas vers quelle tenue penche ma préférence mais peu importe, Victoria est bien belle !

    The coral suit is lovely on Victoria, but the jacket is a little large on her. Lilac dress is very meh.

    The lilac dress is beautiful and very feminine, highlighting Victoria's toned physique nicely. I'm not crazy about the puff sleeves, but they do seem to provide some balance to the dress.
    Since I do like orange and tangerine, I like the Zara suit as well. Perhaps the jacket length and sleeves should have been an inch shorter on Victoria, but it's fine the way it is too.

    I love the orange suit with its simple, tailored lines and vibrant colour. The lilac dress is quite underwhelming in comparison. The pale colour coupled with the puff sleeves gives it a very young vibe to my eye. (V.M.)

    She should stick to pant suits, they look better than those cheap, ugly, old fashioned looking dresses she wears. She can afford to look better.

  6. I like the Zara suit; as we have already seen clothes do not always need to be expensive. Yes it is still in the oversized trend. The dress is quite feminine, yes, however not my favorite.

    I think the orange suit is beautiful on Victoria, but the lilac dress washes her out, makes her pale. She looks better with stronger colours

      Agree with you. She looks fabulous in that coral suite. The color of the dress is really not good on her

      Agree with you both. The trouser suit is great. I like the style of the dress but it’s insipid in comparison. Nice shoes on both occasions

    Very nice business suit and Zara brand fits her better than the Swedish ones as Zara's clothes are made for shorter people. First suite in a long time where the waistline fits.
    The lilac dress is dreadful This WWII style dress seems to be made of the kind of war/post war cheap materials. I sincerely hope this will not be a fashion trend.

  9. The orange pantsuit looks splendid, the fit is perfect, minor quibble, not so keen on the color. The Liliac dress is very pretty and feminine. She looks lovely.

    I like the zara outfit except the hair.

    She has a hard time walking in heals, especially the lilac ones she wore. She had very wide feet which makes all the pumps look unproprotionate on her feet..

      I'm not so sure that is true. If you can't walk in heels, you don't wear them. You can't fake something like that. She never seems to have problems when I see her walking. I haven't noticed abnormally wide feet either, but I will pay more attention. As much as I dislike her style most of the time, her shoes have not been an issue to me.

    The orange suit is a winner. Great colour and fit.
    The lilac dress is nice but the sleeves are weird. If they had been a bit more streamlined, I´d like the whole dress better.

    My impression- and I’m no fashion expert -of the Crown Princess is that when on trips like this clothes that pack easily would be a priority. She’s regarded as being a very practical lady. Her focus would be on the purpose of her visit rather than promoting fashion. At present it’s summer in Australia so wearing cool comfortable clothes for the numerous walkabouts makes sense.

    1. On another site, a blogger said "They were there on an official visit, not to give a fashion show".

    The lilac dress is much better than the prairie dresses she favors but still too twee for my tastes.

    Finally a well fitting suit, so much better than all her other ones. Great colour as well.

    Lilac dress is too washed out. Not a great cut either. She has plenty other better choices in her wardrobe.
