    Les beaux manteaux sont de sortie …

    Le prince Georges a assorti sa cravate avec le manteau de maman ; quelle délicate attention !
    J’affectionne le manteau de la princesse de Galles ; elle est radieuse !
    La fourrure fait toute la différence et apporte une touche d’originalité. Ses boucles sont jolies.

    Ceux de la duchesse Sophie, la duchesse de Gloucester sont tout aussi beaux. Ils ont une belle couleur et sont seyants.

    Mention spéciale à Mme Zara, que je trouve très féminine dans ce look. Elle a opté pour une paire d’escarpins; je trouve son look réussi.

    La dame vêtue d’un manteau de couleur blanche couplé à une robe de couleur rouge (les couleurs de Noël) est tout aussi élégante. Elle renvoie l’image d’une femme distinguée.

    -Astrid.

    A beautiful event. Westminster Abbey is stunning as always, but it is breathtaking with the Christmas decorations.
    Catherine's dark green color suits her very well. It brings out the color of her eyes. All the royals look beautifully dressed.
    Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, is absolutely radiant. Some commentators may complain about the length of her coat, but I don't mind. She looks very young. I wish I could be as radiant when I'm 60, or as elegant as the Duchess of Gloucester when I'm 80.

    It’s always an event I look forward to. Seeing such a good turn out from the family,especially those members we might not see as regularly as the prominent royals.
    The Wales children have all had a growing spurt. I think Princess Charlotte looks lovely in her navy dress. I’m quite a traditionalist, so I appreciate the collar and the velvet bow in her hair.
    Both the boys look dapper in their suits, as does Prince William.
    I liked this coat and the added trim when Catherine wore it a few years back. Green is a good color on her.
    The standout for me was Lady Windsor. She always looks so well presented. Her hair neatly done. Her outfit fits beautifully, and her accessories marry up perfectly to her outfit. I love how she matched her girls in festive red coats.
    Zara also looked lovely, but I not sure if she’s wearing black or dark blue.
    Duchess Sophie staying true to her long coats. The dress underneath doesn’t seem to match the coat, and her ankle boots matches nothing she’s wearing,nir does it match her clutch bag. She herself looks so pretty and she certainly defies her age.
    Lowri.

    First of all, how lovely is it to see all these extended members of the Royal family and their children gather together in one place? It is a rare occurrence indeed, and a lovely thought that the season of Christmas, together with the noteworthy effort of the Princess of Wales makes this happen every year now for the past 5. Well done to her, and to all of them.
    As for the clothing, they all look great, and of course the children - all of them - are adorable.

    I like Catherine’s coat and earrings very much. They look festive for the season. I wonder what the temperature is inside Westminster Abbey - it must be quite chilly given how bundled-up everyone is inside.

    Awesome coats from so many royals! it's hard to pick a favourite, but I have to mention Zara, whose shorter blonder hairstyle looks stunning with her black jumper and coat of navy velvet with black satin lapels. It's a minimalist outfit, reminiscent of Charlene's style, and super chic. Lyra

      I agree, she looks fab! Sophie is also glowing. The Cambridge family is looking well co-ordinated and more traditional but I like that choice for them since they're the center of this service.

  7. Catherine looks beautiful. Its lovely to see a rewear of this beautiful coat, love the festive green color. The faux fur collar, I love this, wonderful addition. The diamond earrings are gorgeous they have great glistening factor. Zara's velvet coat is beautiful two toned and gorgeous. Sophie looks beautiful as does the Duchess of Gloucester. Love the colors of their coats. The young Prince's look so well groomed, lovely boys. Charlotte looks beautiful. The children have grown so much.

    Beautiful winter coats.
    The best looks for me are Princess Catherine in her bottle green coat and fur collar and the Duchess of Gloucester in her dark red coat.The children in their red outfits are lovely. Zara Tindall is looking good too. Does Carole Middleton wear a coat that once belonged to her daughter Princess Catherine ? If not there is a big ressemblence. Princess Charlotte is wearing no coat. It must not be warm in Westminster Abbey. These old cathedrals are difficult to get warm.

      Ce style de tartan est très répandu. Charlotte a porté aussi un manteau de ce style, un peu différent :

      Probably at home, putting their feet up? It is not a must, the Waleses are also not each time present when King+Queen have an appointment. They have only been there once, 2022, when the service was dedicated to the Late Queen Elizabeth II.

    4. Should you mean Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla - they've had some very busy days recently, and as the king has not been officially been cleared of cancer, I think he might still receive some treatment, and needs to rest a little, too. They do not attend that particular event most of the times anyway.

      King Charles and the Queen consort don't attend as a matter of protocol. Since they are senior ranking royals to the Prince and Princess of Wales, their presence and protocol would demand a greater share of attention, in addition to all the other attendant services that follow them around. Their absence is a correct and polite way of letting The Prince and Princess of Wales to exercise their seniority at this event (they are second after Charles and Camilla), and especially for an event that was organised, led and hosted by the Princess. She should be the most senior person present (with William), and she is.

      Charles et Camilla ont assisté au 2e concert de Noël en décembre 2022. Si leur santé le permet, et aussi en fonction de leur emploi du temps, ils seront peut-être à nouveau présents en décembre 2026, pourquoi pas. Paloma.

      Charles et Camilla ont assisté au concert de 2022 uniquement parce qu'il était dédié à la reine Elizabeth II, décédée quatre mois plus tôt. Ils n'y assistent généralement pas afin de laisser au prince et à la princesse de Galles la place des membres les plus importants de la famille royale lors de cet événement qu'ils ont organisé. C'est une question de diplomatie et de protocole. Voilà pourquoi, puisque vous me l'avez demandé.

    Ma préférence pour Zara, elle est très élégante avec ce manteau bleu (en velours semble-t-il), et sa nouvelle coupe de cheveux lui va à ravir.
    Lady Frederick Windsor a un joli manteau pailleté et ses filles sont mignonnes en rouge (le papa a assorti sa cravate avec elles).
    Comme Astrid, je trouve la dame blonde très chic en rouge et blanc.
    J'admire particulièrement les boucles d'oreilles étoilées de Catherine.
    Par contre le col en dentelle de Charlotte me fait penser au petit Lord Fauntleroy. Ni elle ni ses frères ne portent de manteaux, ils ne doivent pas avoir chaud.
    La robe de Sophie semble rouge à motifs et c'est un bon choix pour Noël, mais elle porte souvent un manteau trop long.

    William, Catherine and all three children looked handsome, lovely, and serene. Extended family were very nice to see, yet the bulk of the invited guests were those impacted in some manner, or volunteer's who assist those in need within their community, or the wonderful young musicians who played music as the guests were arriving.
    The clothing was traditional, lovely, appropriate. It was the reason for the service that stands out, not who was or was not there, or what the women were wearing. The dedication of those who offer their time, talents, treasures to those in need, such as lifting up the young musicians to show them how to become the best they can be in life (such as the late Duchess of Kent), those are the treasured individuals, and moments that were reflected upon during this service. I applaud Catherine, and all who helped her put together this wonderful, heart-felt service.

      @Edwina, thank you for reminding us that the deeper sense of this service was something else than fashion. I think everybody knows it quite well. Being reminded of the self-evident makes me feel slightly inappropriate for talking about what the focus of this blog is.

      Sorry, this is simply not true. I don't know how you can base such a judgement on the context of a state visit. Why should he laugh out loud with Steinmeier when he can laugh with children? Cf. https://www.instagram.com/p/DRfeZyykgo_/?img_index=4

      I didn't say he should laugh out loud. I said he didn't smile on the Christmas carol event and during the state banquet. The instagram you took as an example is dated 25 november.

    Ladies all look appropriately and neatly attired. Charlotte looks out of place in that "victorian" style white collar on her dress or coat. Surely a 10 yr old girl can't be happy wearing this type of clothing. Let her be a little more modern , even if her mother feels the need to play it safe with her own wardrobe.

    What happened to Charlottes coat? Even Kate's got a coat on; style over substance makes no sense. Have they got damart underwear on? Sophie looks good. The other Royal's look good.(Tara)

      They had just a few steps between the car they arrived in and the church. Catherine has been there before, being the host and responsible, and she came out to greet her family. If they choose not to wear a coat for just a couple of steps, there is no reason to suppose "style over substance" preferences .
